Maybe a bit of an obvivious choice this, but i think the whole of the UK gave a WTF when this reached #1 in the charts. Laurie Anderson's O Superman .
Certainly made me have a look around at other music, love the stripped back feel.

Well ... in the spirit of the OP that asks for examples that make you go "Music? WTF?" .....
The following two examples spring immediately to my mind. Couldn't be more contrasted.
John Cage's 4'33"
Florence Foster Jenkins
Question: does this post make sense?

I am enjoying this thread.
Thanks for the Harry Partch tip, that'll take some investigating.
I'll post a quick one by The Residents
Which, while not the best example of what they can do, is rather bizarre.

Almost anything by Diamanda Galas would qualify as bizarre. Whilst her treatment of the subject matter isn't as original or as interesting as she appears to think it is, as a personal expression of sound what she does is pretty impressive:

""Words are too compelling....The subtle emotional palate is what I'm most interested in...the voice is a very powerful connection to feeling, even on a physical level - it comes from your gut, it comes straight up through your body, and it goes out your mouth."
