Whats the most Ironic song ever?

Question

I was thinking kurt cobain singin in Nirvana's, Come as you are,

And I swear
That I dont have a gun
No I dont have a gun
No I dont have a gun

But Kurt blew his own head off!

Or Ronan Keating, You Say it best when you say nothing at all.......

Answer 1

You're So Vain - Carly Simon.
The lyrics go - "You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you."
But it was!

Answer 2

I think it has to be "Isn't it Ironic?" by Alannis Morissette. Its a bit obvious, but with lyrics like

An old man, turned 98, he won the lottery and died the next day.....

A no smoking sign, on your cigarette break,

Like ten thousand spoons, when all you need is a knife, and meeting the man of your dreams, and his beautiful wife....

I like your choice too. But its ironic because of what Kurt did, not because the song was necessarily ironic.

Answer 3

Lynyrd Skynyrd, Sweet Home Alabahama.

Answer 4

Stone Free- Jimi Hendrix.

Answer 5

Ironic by Alanis

Answer 6

There was this very popular French singer back in the 70s, by the name of Claude François (very popular in France, that is, mainly unheard of anywhere else). His last hit was called "J'ai reçu 10.000 volts" (translates as "I got 10,000 volts"). He died prematurely shortly afterwards when he stood up in his bath to tighten the screw-in lightbulb that was flickering.
Irony and idiocy all in one!

Answer 7

Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video was pretty ironic cos he really does look like that now.

Anything by the Smithes, You stand on your own, you go home alone, you cry and you want to die
