Send In The Clowns is good,
loadsa people have covered it but I think the best versions are by Frank Sinatra and Judy Collins.

Tears of a Clown by Smokey Robinson

And didn't Britney Spears do a song called Circus? Couldn't be that memorable as I couldn't whistle it but it might have a good video.

Oh, and Clown by Emeli Sande is a good song.

The Grace Jones version of Send in the Clowns actually has that calliope or circus organ song in it that goes "boop BOOP BOOP, boop BOOP BOOP" You know, that actual circus song.

RE Brit: Yes - not sure if it musically needs to sound like a circus or just have it as a theme. She had a whole album as such - it actually had some decent pop songs on it.

RE: Tears of a Clown
How could I forget that! Daaayum... that's like my favorite song.

Here is what I have so far. Basically just songs that have a creepy organ waltz. I know about some old calliope music, but I am more interested in contemporary artists integrating this kind of sound in their music.
