What are some of your favorite weird songs?
What I have in mind here isn't so much things like "Frank Zappa's entire discography," but more to highlight some risky departures from bands you like that turned out really well. "Pay The Man" could be one of my answers, for instance.
I'll start with the two ballsiest album openers I know: R.E.M.- Airportman (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPcQfZUBYT8) and Yeasayer- The Children (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWtiI6ZzqxA). For the latter I linked the live version because although I like the album version, it's just fucking trippy as balls live.
One of my old-school favorites is Sponge- Candy Corn (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8AyPaw-mxQ), the hidden track from Rotting Piņata.
Tomorrow Never Knows (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spjcPS4ekOA) remains one of my favorite Beatles songs.
And then there's Ed is a Portal (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIUHrL1NxAI), even though almost everything Akron/Family does is kinda weird.
