Old Pop Songs .......Now Creepy

Just ran across an old song while driving home

Chevy Van = Sammy Johns

In today’s world, very much cringe-worthy.

Any others?

Escape = Rupert Holmes

A likely suspect

Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline somehow comes to mind...

Always liked the song, but the backstory still creeps me out.

Whats Your Name = Lynyrd Skynyrd

I think it was meant to be satirical, but it’s mean spirited

For those who find cannibalism a bit off-putting, there's always Timothy.

Why is a song written about his wife Marsha creepy?

Decide for yourself MonBK. Here's the story as told by Neil Diamond in 2007.

Yeah, that one is kind of creepy in a stalker sort of way when you think about it.

I guess we'll never know for sure, but I'm more inclined to believe his earlier version of events. He went so far as to tell that to Caroline himself.

I would hope it was inspired by his wife and not some little girl, but I can't see what his motivation would have been for going public with his original disclosure.

Like I said, only Neil knows the truth, whatever version he chooses to share at the moment. Heck for that matter, Neil could come out in another year or two and say it was MonBK who inspired the song!

When I talked to him this morning he said he'd reveal the "Real Truth" on my Birthday.

A world famous million record selling country artist gets deleted?

The song doesn't have one single dirty word.

Is it asking for too much to get an explanation?
