Creepy Singles

   Sometimes you need a song that isn't quite ordinary. Not a love song. Not a breakup song. Not a screaming song. Not a crying song. And not even a happy song. But perhaps a creepy song. Creepy in a cool way not in a hiding out, terrified way...


Title: Pity Party
Artist: Melanie Martinez
Album: Pity Party Single
Genre: Alternative
Video: Pity Party

Review:

This one is not as eerie as the song below. It is definitely more the video that has a creepy vibe than the song itself. The premise of the video is a girl who is throwing a party and no one shows up. Martinez is dressed like a much younger girl and her settings are that of a party for little girls. She does end up pretty much losing it (crazy hair, clown makeup, shredding stuffed animals...) by the end of the video. This song is a twist on the older "It's My Party" by Lesley Gore, but not a full remake. Rather than a man leaving, this song is about no one showing up to a girl's party. If you like funny videos that have a touch of crazy then check this one out. It is fun and weird in the best way possible.

Title: Secret
Artist: The Pierces
Album: Thirteen Tales of Love and Revenge
Genre: Pop
Video: Secret

Review:

Creepy, creepy, creepy circus freak show. This song is the descent into madness and creeps me out every time I hear it. Years ago it was featured on ABC Family's Pretty Little Liars. The first time I heard it was without the video...this makes it infinitely creepier (if you choose to just listen, here is a video). The entire premise of the song is that "two can keep a secret if one of them is dead" and the music definitely has a circus/carnival feel to it. Singing is done in an almost monotonous tone with a high pitched sweet voice. Even the spoken sections between the sisters gets pretty creepy. If you're looking for an eerie song, this is it.
