From misunderstood stalker anthems to in-your-face death threats, here are some twisted classics to make your crush's skin crawl. www.craveonline.com/music/articles/204881-the-14-creepiest-love-songs-of-all-timeNow I have to be fair to The Ramones and point out that The KKK Took My Baby Away is a metaphor and not that creepy in context. It was written by Joey Ramone after Johnny (who was aggressively conservative politically) eloped with his girlfriend. So Joey wrote the song basically to get back at his bandmate for stealing his woman by comparing him to the legendary band of ruthless bigots, hence "The KKK Took My Baby Away". |

Yeah, Baby It's Cold Outside was always questionable in my eyes. She wants to LEAVE, you fucking date rapist. Leave her alone! But Sweet Caroline? Neil Diamond already sets off their alarm bells? How dare they. For me, one of, if not THE creepiest "love" songs is from a former Your Verdict band, The Hot Melts. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFWp_yppls8Check out some of these lyrics; "What am I going to do? I'll be going to Hell, baby." "Don't want it if it's old and worn, I need something new." "Only kiss me when the coast is clear". Riiiiight. |

Let me add a couple as well. First up, Cheap Trick's ode to jailbait chasers: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CE9ewbmCxsg"I'm thirty but I feel like sixteen I might even know your daddy I'm dirty but my body is clean I might even be you daddy" Honestly, I could probably make a whole list of nothing but creepy Cheap Trick lyrics..... James Blunt's "You're Beautiful" www.youtube.com/watch?v=oofSnsGkops"She smiled at me on the subway. She was with another man. But I won't lose no sleep on that, 'Cause I've got a plan." Fuuuuuuuck, that's as creepy as it gets. I mean, I see hot girls smile all the damn time and never have I made any plans (I assume to kill their loved one) or considered losing sleep over it. I think Weird Al hit it out of the park with his parody: "You're pitiful You're pitiful You're pitiful, it's true Never had a date That ya couldn't inflate And ya smell repulsive too What a bummer bein' you" |

The more I actually think about "You're Beautiful" the weirder that fucking song gets. Yet the amount of people who actually request this for Valentine's/Weddings etc, simply because it's got the words "you're beautiful" repeated over and over again that seemingly make the whole point of the song moot. He's fucking STONED. He doesn't know the girl. He'll never know the girl. How is that romantic??
