Weird and wonderful, or just different to the music you would normally listen to....everyone has at least one song that is that little bit different!!

Completely random, or something just odd for your tastes, tell everyone what you got! :wink:

Clannah's "Against the wind" might be considered strange by a few, I suppose.

That's celtic, by the way, wolfie.

"Ça Plane Pour Moi" is one of those songs where I regret not having insisted on it being played at our wedding. Yaz's "The Situation" was, though.

Leadbelly's not weird, altho some of the old blues masters are... Ummagumma's weird.

It was my favorite when it was new; I just got a copy after many years without. I still love it. I played it for a bunch of teenagers, tho, and I think I like their techno better than they like my acid...

My entire collection of music is strange, I have as much Death Metal as I do Classical with almost everything in between.

A few bands that stand out by most standards would be Ween, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, and maybe Primus.

zappa strange whatever do you mean

Help, I'm A Rock
Frank Zappa

Help I'm a rock, help I'm a rock, help I'm a rock!
Ahahahahahahaaa
Help I'm a rock, help I'm a rock, help I'm a rock!
Somebody, please, please!
Help I'm a rock, help I'm a rock...
Wow man, it's a drag being a rock
Help I'm a rock...
I wish I was anything but a rock
Heck, I'd even like to be a policeman
Hey, you know what, you know maybe if I practised, you know
Maybe if I passed my driving test
I could get a gig drivin' that bus and pick some freaks up
In front of Ben Franks, right!

Help I'm a cop, help I'm a cop, help I'm a cop!
(Help I'm a rock...), help I'm a cop, help I'm a cop!
It's a drag being a cop, I think I'd rather be the mayor
Always wondered what I was gonna be when I grew up, you know
Always wondered whether or not, whether or not I could make it,
You know, in society, because,
You know, it's a drag when you're rejected
So I tore the cover off a book of matches and I sent in
And I got this letter back that said, UHU, AHA

It can't happen here
It can't happen here
I'm telling you, my dear
That it can't happen here
Because I been checkin' it out, baby
I checked it out a couple a times, hmmmmmmmm
And I'm telling you
It can't happen here
Oh darling, it's important that you believe me
(Bop bop bop bop)
That it can't happen here

Who could imagine that they would freak out somewhere in Kansas...
Kansas Kansas tototototodo
Kansas Kansas tototototodo
Kansas Kansas
Who could imagine that they would freak out in Minnesota...
Mimimimimimimi Minnesota, Minnesota, Minnesota
Who could imagine...

Who could imagine
That they would freak out in Washington, D.C.
D.C. D.C. D.C. D.C. D.C.
It can't happen here
Ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba
It can't happen here
It can't happen here
Everybody's safe and it can't happen here
No freaks for us
It can't happen here
Everybody's clean and it can't happen here
No, no, it won't happen here
I'm telling you it can't
It won't happen here
(Bop bop didi bop didi bop bop bop)
Plastic folks, you know
It won't happen here
You're safe, mama
You're safe, baby
You just cook a TV dinner
And you make it
(Bop bop bop)
No no no no
Oh, we're gonna get a TV dinner and cook it up
Go get a TV dinner and cook it up
Cook it up
Oh, and it won't happen here
(No no no no no no no no no no no
Man you guys are really safe
Everything's cool).
Who could imagine
Who could imagine
That they would freak out in the suburbs!

I remember (tu-tu)
I remember (tu-tu)
I remember (tu-tu)
They had a swimming pool
I remember (tu-tu)
I remember (tu-tu)
They had a swimming pool
I remember (tu-tu)
I remember (tu-tu)
They had a swimming pool.
And they thought it couldn't happen here
(duh duh duh duh duh)
They knew it couldn't happen here
They were so sure it couldn't happen here
But...

Suzie...
Yes yes yes--I've always felt that
Yes I agree man, it really makes it...yeah...
It's a real THING, man
And it really makes it
(Makes it)

Suzie, you just got to town,
And we've been, we've been very interested
In your development.
Forget it!
Hmmmmmmmmm

Nice jepah, I listen to some TMBG. I also, listen to some strange indie bands, like Sorry About Dresden, The Desaparecidos, Neutral Milk Hotel, Two Gallants, etc., etc. I really like that raw, soul-baring music and it's strange, but I'm not ashamed of it at all. In fact, I'm a little proud. But, although it seems strange, it really isn't. People just think that anything that's not mainstream is strange. I don't care, as long as I like it.
