I'll probably get shot in the knackers for this but maybe one could argue that, despite it's familarity and ubiquity in the now, Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" was, in it's own way, a pretty bonkers song to get any air play, let alone make it to No.1 for ages. See also Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights".
I mean I can remember the initital "What the fuck was that" response upon hearing them even as a mere yoof.
