Perhaps a Little Halloween Music?

Grieg. In the hall of the mountain king.

Voltaire!!! How could I have forgotten him?! You can make an entire mix out of just his songs!

I know, right? He puts on a good live show, too.

He's fantastic! I've caught maybe three shows in Ohio over the years, one of which was just a bit after the hubs and I met. Totally won him over on Voltaire and the opener was Bella Morte' so just a fantastic night overall! One of these years I'll make it down to Dragoncon to see him when he performs there.

So I've made a "Halloween" playlist on Spotify, but my selections include less truly scary and/or Halloween party music & more spooky or moody love songs, some "girls w/ attitude" songs, some country, a little 80s, a little 90s, & then some fun traditional Halloween songs for my younger son... more driving & singing along in the car or listening while working type music.

These are FANTASTIC! Thank you for sharing!

 

[DuskKodesh]

Also I just realized I don't think this was in anyone's list and not only is it my favorite musician on the planet but it's a song used in Scream, Hellboy, the X-Files, and Peaky Blinders. It's possibly my favorite Halloween song ever. <3

 

[Kitty 34]

This was probably mentioned in the three thousand item lists that have been posted ( ) but when I think Halloween I think of all music from Rocky Horror.

Hope everyone has a good Halloween today!

You too!

I have my newly expanded play all ready to play at work today.

 

[Bianca and Bernard]

I'm the local Halloween DJ for my street and have a mix list a mile wide. Thought it might be nice to share songs that aren't such common plays and maybe ask everyone's favorite Halloween music in return!

Tis the season to get spooky!

I'll add in posts but start with a few!
Concrete Blonde - Bloodletting (Classic Rock)
Rosemary Clooney - The Wobblin Goblin (Oldies)
Dead Man's Bones - Dead Man's Bones (Self titled track, Indie Rock)
Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs - Little Red Riding Hood (Classic Rock)
Zombie Girl - Creepy Crawler (Club Track)
Cab Calloway - The Ghost of Smokey Joe (Oldies)
Paralysed Age - Bloodsucker (Difficult to define but it's a vampire band and they're fantastic!)

Monster Mash ----- Bobby Pickett
Thriller ---- Michael Jackson
This Is Halloween ---NBC

Did they do "I'll Kill You That Way" (BSB song)? That one is hilarious!

Yes. Most of their Halloween parodies are quite funny. Especially if you are a horror film fan.
