Unintentionally funny songs
Have you ever heard a song that the artist fully expects you take seriously, but instead you find yourself guffawing?
One such song for me is Janet Jackson's Feedback. In fact, I have decided it is the single funniest thing on this entire planet, slightly beating out people who sign internet petitions.
Yet I cannot stop listening to it, for in its own way it gives me great satisfaction.
That Bulgarian Idol "Ken Lee" song.
Never Gonna Give You Up. Hilarious.
After all that Arrested Development, whenever I hear "Final Countdown," I can't help laughing.
Linkin Park's Crawling, and all those godawful emo/screamo songs the kids are listening to these days.
Linkin Park anything.Originally Posted by Big D
Flobots's "Handlebars"
I can tell you all about Leif Eriksen. And I can see your face on my telephone.
Also the line from that one Incubus song that goes "Love hurts, but sometimes it's a good hurt. . ." I don't know what's so funny about it, but it makes me laugh every time.
Pretty much every Cradle of Filth song after I saw some misheard lyric videos and stopped being able to tell was Dani was really saying and then even songs that didn't have videos I started laughing at. Lolrunonsentence
Kaycee says (12:06 AM):
whos' obama?
"Love In This Club" by Usher. Just listening to the lyrics and visualising it happening is so absurd it cracks me up.
That song makes me giggle too. It used to be used on YTMND as a background track to anything sad happening, then along came Untitled by Simple Plan to bugger it all up.
"Crawling in my skin, these wounds they will not heal" is clearly what he sings, but the liner notes read "Crawling in my skin, consuming what a feel".
Anyway.
Iron Maiden - The Prisoner.
For some reason, when I lipsynch or indeed sing this one, I move as if to be avoiding breathing into the mic. As a result, I start chucking Chocolate Rain lines into it...
Or instead of "Run! Fight! To breathe! It's gonna be tough!" I'll sing "Move! From the mic! To breathe!" etc.
And finally there's that death metal track from Guilty Gear 2: Overture. The title, Worthless As The Sun Above Clouds, is crazy enough but the voice makes me giggle, even more after I made up fake lyrics of my own for it so that I could actually "sing" along to it while I waited for the real lyrics to pop up somewhere...
Under the darkside raging fool
Mineral water
Key aye ham
Burnt face
Devoured flies
And Vega's doomed
Crunchie debt hovercraft
Dirk toy hall spear
That may be constant on the crossroads*
Look at you
What can a deer pretend for
Mineral water
Boar eye ham
Hsu Hao's star sign
I've just got to dial
Hentai rains down
Ollie's gay
Jeff might hold the shark
And that's just the first verse... did I mention the song's actually in English too?
*At this point he's actually saying the song's title. I never caught on.

Lil' Wayne - Lollipop. That song just screams "fake" all over itself.
Limp Bizkit - Rollin'
And My Humps by Black Eyes Peas, a song that tries so hard to be sexy and fails so miserably at it.
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
The Clear winner hear is Ice Ice Baby. B)
Oh man, I forgot about that one. That song is mothersmurfing hilarious. I had to get Alanis' joke-cover just because it puts such a spotlight on the lyrics. That is some good fun.
