I know that a good number of people claim that this - "Country Death Song" by The Violent Femmes - is a sick and creepy song.  All I can say is - Yes, it IS a sick and creepy song.  It's about a father killing his daughter!  How can it not be creepy?
I think the problem is that Gordon Gano captured the mindset of a person who would kill his own daughter very well, and we begin to sympathize somewhat with this guy.  And that's what's creepy.  And that's what makes this a perfect Halloween song!
And this video is perfect for the song!
