What's the weirdest Song you heard in the Godzilla series?

For discussions covering more than one Toho film or show that span across more than one “era.”

Hedorah Soundtrack along with the MEGALON one.
(For example when Godzilla first appears in both of them)
The Godzilla March from GIGAN its a valid contender but hearing it alot im got used to it. ;)

Thanks Jomei...this and the Mothra song are just too catchy.

Monster March from the Japanese version of Revenge. That excuse of a song is hands down the worst and weirdest song to ever grace a Toho SFX film. Crime Fiction is arguably the best use of U.S. replacement music.

Anyone care to sample from my collection of Godzilla record songs from 1970s?

Also, anyone remember that hilariously dated radio music from SpaceGodzilla? It has its own isolated track.

I wouldn't call 'Monster March' weird - I would call it BAD.
It's grating on the ears like nothing else I've heard before.

The Star Sisters song "Godzilla Love Theme" (aka "Goodbye Godzilla") from Return of Godzilla. What a strange song to play over the end credits. Has some bizarre lyrics, too.

The one used in the movie isn't as terrible as the one from that link at least.

^ I can't help it, it's wholly inappropriate to the film, but if hear that song, it gets stuck in my head for days.

Maybe I actually like it, or maybe it's just so out-of-touch that it fascinates me. :lol:

I think that song fits much better in a music video from the film, than in the film itself. I have to wonder how Godzilla vs. Destroyer's ending would be percieved if it carried such tune.
Every film should have at least one animal attack.

^ I was thinking that myself.

It would very effectively torpedo any sense of somberness.

Not weird, but certainly ironic:

The red-headed Caucasian chick, singing "The Words Get Stuck In My Throat", in "War of the Gargantuas", shortly before Gaira shows up, & tries to stick HER down his throat!
