Thought of another one Peaches by The Presidents Of The United States Of America.

When I was like 10, everyone on my schoolbus got in trouble because we kept singing that song, and we wouldn't stop, even after the driver told us to XD

Ooh, how could I forget the most random, happy song of all?

New World - Round Table

"Baby, I just threw out the lemonade
If the too sweet chocolate was sticking to my cheek"

:o That's the greatest song...ever! My brother and I used to sing it all the time. Matter of fact, my bro is in a band currently and they do a cover of that song.

AFI "Cereal Wars" is definetley odd. It has some vulgar language in it's short length of about 2 minutes...but the entire song is about cereal. I think that deserves to be called weird.

Mindless Self Indulgence "Shut Me Up" is a bit odd. There's some language in that one, but it's the cleanest MSI song I can think of.

The theme song to Azumanga Daioh (Oranges and Lemons) is definetley odd. And the translation is crazy.

I don't think it has a name, but the opening theme song to Paranoia Agent deserves a look.

Also, Katamari Damacy "Katamary on the Rocks" is definetley odd. Fun song, though it gets stuck in my head constantly.

Oh yes, forgot about that entirely....

If you want wierd songs, just go through an anime mp3 library. You'll find loads.

AzuDai is odd itself. XD But I though Rasberry Heaven was the theme song. o__O

Raspberry Heaven is the end theme. Soramimi Keeki is the main theme.

As for other suggestions...Maybe something by Shounen Knife? Konnichiwa and Cherry Bomb are a bit odd. But that's mainly because they have a total of 3 verses that are just repeated over and over again. ^_-

Just about any They Might Be Giants songs would probably fit. "'Til My Head Falls Off" is pretty good, and "Wearing a Raincoat" would definitely qualify for songs that have lyrics that just go everywhere. >_< That song makes my brain ache.

Yes - especially 'Lord only knows' and 'Devils Haircut' which have some wonderfully surreal lyrics. Oh, and Loser as Vanilla mentioned - "my time is a piece of wax fallin’ on a termite, That’s chokin’ on the splinters" - the guy's a genius 8)

Yep, that's the name. Another Postcard is quite random.

Also...

Third Eye Blind - Camouflage
Third Eye Blind - The Red Summer Sun
Blink-182 - Degenerate
Blink-182 - Happy Holidays, You (censored)
Sublime - Wrong Way
Meredith Brooks - I Need
Liz Phair - whitechocolatespaceegg
Idina Menzel - Think Too Much
Jason Mraz - Too Much Food
Hootie & The Blowfish - Fairweather Johnson
Fountains Of Wayne - Bright Future In Sales

All of these are pretty weird. Keep in mind that some of these have explicit lyrics.

Ooh, of course, the Presidents are awesome!
*sings* "Peaches come from a can! They were put there by a man!" :D

"Kitty" is, of course, another great and weird/funny song by them... there's some explicit language though, so be warned about that.

Also, "I Like Birds" by The Eels is another happy weird song :)

'My Alien' by Simple Plan. It's just... weird... o.o

Fri Jul 22, 2005 1:47 am

99 Red Balloons by Nena (there's a version by Goldfinger, too, though I haven't heard that one). It's a bit weird, and a bit funny. If you can manage to hear the lyrics.

Wow, thanks everyone. I listened to some of these songs and I must say, they are very weird. Thank you very much for suggesting them! I had no idea there was this many weird songs.

Why did you need all of these goofy songs for, Ammer? Desperate for new tunes, eh?

Fri Jul 22, 2005 6:33 pm

Ooh...I have a weird song. Pokemew said Fountains of Wayne, and Stacy's Mom started playing in meh head. :)
