This may sound like a bit of an odd request but I am currently making a CD compelation of the best songs concerning serial killers, have a fairly decent collection so far but want to few more. Here is the list so far:

Jack the Ripper - Colin Meloy
Celebrity Cannabalism - Creaming Jesus
Son of Sam - Elliot Smith
John Wayne Gacy, Jr. - Sufjan Stevens
Psycho Killer - Talking Heads
Murder by Numbers - The Police
Lotion - Greenskeepers
Possum Kingdom - Toadies
Suffer Little Children - The Smiths
Nothing to Gein - Mudvayne
Curse of Millhaven - Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Climbing Up The Walls - Radiohead
In The Shadows - The Rasmus
Roland - Interpol
The Chosen - Voltaire

Any more suggestions?

Dahmer's dead, by the Violent Femmes. 'Course, then you had to throw that whole "best songs" thing into the mix... [img]smile.gif[/img]

Night Stalker, ACDC. Not about one, but said to have heavily inspired Richard Ramirez, the infamous "Night Stalker" killer of the 80's.

You can't make one without "Sniper" one of the most descriptive songs about why they kill. It was modeled after the guy in the church tower at a university I think in Texas but not sure. Harry Chapin does it.

Not a serial killer, but "I don't like Mondays", by the Boomtown Rats. Inspired by a girl who walked into a McDonald's (I think) and just started shooting people. When asked why, she said "I don't like Mondays".

Song takes on a different feel when you listen to it with that thought in your mind.
