I always found Pulp's "I Spy" to be creepy, or at the very least unsettling.

OMG, the song I'm currently listening to on repeat, humming to myself during quiet purposes, and generally adoring, namely 'Kreibabe' by Foetus, finishes with Thirlwell whispering "Hush little baby.........don't you cry...", after an excoriating, noisy, 12-minute baring of the soul. It is quite, quite show-stopping (which is presumably why it finishes the album).

*quiet moments, I have no idea why I said 'purposes' there.

Someone did a mashup of that and Postal Service's "Such Great Heights" and it is about 100x creepier.

Current 93's "All the Pretty Little Horses" but the fact that it hasn't been mentioned yet makes me think it was implied or something.http://youtu.be/VgROpZn__0M
I added but then deleted some black metal selections as soon as I realized they may be construed not as creepy but as ridiculous. So I'll merely allude to them.
