Title: unintentionally funny songs
Post by: Ziggy on 25 Aug 2005, 19:37

I'm pretty sure this hasn't been done but if it has I apologize. I know there are intentionally funny songs out there but what about the unintentional ones that make you laugh/smirk/giggle like a little school girl when they probably shouldn't?

for me it's usually a really annoying song. it's either I get annoyed and will avoid it or I will get annoyed but be amused by it.

one example is dashboard confessional's 'hands down'. especially the part where the guy goes "hey did you get some...man that is SO dumb". my friends & I have the lyrics memorized and will just start singing it whenever we feel like a laugh.

another one is nin's 'only'. that one makes me laugh so much, he just basically talks through the whole song in a very annoying tone.

and now the burning question...what are yours?

There's this part in the Mr. Bungle song "Platypus" where the lyrics get really segmented and at one point it's a bunch of creepy jibber-jabber and somebody yells "SOOOCCCKSSSS" in this really funny yell and for some reason it makes me laugh really hard and yeah.

My brother loves the band Skindred, those crazy people from South Africa. Their song "Nobody" makes me die laughing. I have NO idea what they say, and everything just sounds so funny when you dont know the real lyrics.

There's a lot of bands I used to laugh at but now I listen to a lot. Battlelore is so hilariously nerdy, I guess they're trying to be serious or something. Immortal has some funny songs too, but their music videos cannot be serious. (well, maybe not Cryptic Wintermoon. Grim and Frostbitten Kingdoms isn't all that funny, but dragging a full drumkit up a mountain is of itself a ridiculous act.)

All of what's out there in mainstream pop/r&b strikes me as utterly hilarious lyric-wise.

That Simple Plan song that keeps playing constantly, it's more boys-band-ish than the Backstreet Boys but they still try to pass it as punk.

I laugh and laugh whenever I hear this song. And then I cry because I realize my ears are bleeding.
