Stalker Songs

The ESO and I were sitting in Quiznos tonight when I heard something on the radio.  It was Hall & Oates’ Private Eyes, which got me thinking - what other songs almost scream “psychotic control freak stalker”?

So far, I’ve made it to two. I’m disappointed.  Here’s what I have so far:

  1. Private Eyes, Hall & Oates
  2. Every Breath You Take, The Police

Of course, the fact that they both came out during the ’80s is definitely worth noting.  If we felt like stretching a little, we could throw in The Proclaimers’ I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles) in the mix, which does have a “I’m going to follow you until the ends of the Earth” vibe.  That said, it doesn’t have anywhere near the level of creepiness that the other two songs had, and that’s what I’m looking for - I want at least a solid 60 minutes of pure, unadulterated pop music creepiness.

Help me out.  Point me in the direction of more stalker music.  You’ll thank me later.
