Re: Top 5 Bizzare songs

Memories...
Listening to Kenny Everett on Cattypal Radio doing his infamous "Bottom 100"
There was, allegedly, a LP top 20 worst pressed in putrid green vinyl.

"Wunderbar"
"Paralysed"
"Transfusion" by Nervous Norvus
YouTube - Transfusion
and many, many more.
I think the top one was "I want my baby back" about a guy missing his girlfriend after he's killed her in a car crash, and setting out to get her back. With a shovel.
"I came to and looked around and over there was my baby, over there was my baby, and way over there was my baby..."

But that still leaves "Drop-kick Me Jesus Through the Goal-posts of Life".
YouTube - DROP KICK ME JESUS by BOBBY BARE

And most of the songs of Tom Lehrer.
"I hold your hand in mine", perhaps,
YouTube - Tom Lehrer - I Hold Your Hand In Mine

Though I have a very soft spot for "We'll all go together when we go"
YouTube - Tom Lehrer - We Will All Go Together When We Go

But yes, there so many.
No Agadoo or the Chicken Song, yet.

and some song that starts with : "Some velvet morning when I wake, I'm gonna open uop your gate ...", think it's by Nancy Sinatra. Any light that ye can shed on it would be welcome.[/quote

Indeed.. "Some Velvet morning" was by Lee Hazelwood and Nancy Sinatra..a classic tune!!
