Halloween Part I

I'm just surprised that Danzig spent so much time unemployed and living in his parents' basement, instead of working for the New Jersey Tourism Board. There's more to NJ than shopping, folks -- Infection and possible death. Remember, biohazard is just a beach away. Just kidding. They picked up those syringes ages ago.

 

 

Now, ready yourselves for some really unscary tunes.

 

 

Well, not this one. This is a really frightening song -- if you're four years old. I don't know when or where I first heard it, but I've loved spelling the chorus forever.

Wade Denning was a composer and jingle writer. (He passed away this last September.) Kay Lande is an actress and singer who's worked on children's projects since the early 60s.

I snagged the album from Scar Stuff.

 

 

 

 

This endearing, little song won me over at first listen. I even like her sort of out-of-tune singing.

There's really not too much information about Lady Krishna's Peppermint Lounge, except for the little that appears on their MySpace page.  Their fan club is riddled with pop-ups and white space.

 

 

 

 

As a fan of SynthPop and some Dark Wave, I always thought that I would like Japan. I tried a couple of times, but, for some reason, their moody electronics would not take.. till now. I'm all gooey for "Halloween", "Quiet Life", and "Fall in Love with Me".

 

 

 

 

 Typical Aqua. Squeaky, silly, and great, braindead entertainment for the whole family. (That bald fool always makes me laugh.)

As of yesterday, they've reunited for a tour.

 

 

 

 

There's no Halloween without Helloween's screamy goodness. I must apologize for depriving you guys of the 13-minute version with its extra shrillness and more menacing atmosphere. I don't know about those lyrics, though.

In November, Helloween will be touring with Gamma Ray (former Helloween guitarist Kai Hansen's band).
