Who are the #MusicMovesMe bloggers? We are bloggers who blog about music each Monday and if you have music to share with us, you are most welcome to join! (Music Posts Only, please! Non-music posts are subject to removal or labeling as "No Music".) First, there is XmasDolly. Her chief co-conductor is Cathy of Curious as a Cathy. Her other co-conductors are Stacy of Stacy Uncorked, and me.
Our guest conductor this month is Robin aka Songbird at Songbird's Crazy World. Her theme this week is "Songs of the Season - Halloween or Autumn or both".
My songs aren't going to be necessarily spooky but will feature elements of Halloween - spiders, blood, horror, costumes, werewolves.
Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon. This 1978 song is such fun and it has such great lines in it.
Ghost - Square Hammer. This is not a Halloween song but it has so many Halloween like elements (and, I love the song and the video both.)
Give Blood - a live performance by Pete Townshend, featuring David Gilmour. Again, the only Halloween element here is blood, but it's a great song.
Psycho Killer - Talking Heads, the song my spouse can't resist making chicken sounds to when he hears it.
Apparently someone else had the same idea - and it was a hit in certain parts of the country in 1979 and 1980. Psycho Chicken by the Fools - it's scary how some people make money.
From 1966: Boris the Spider from The Who.
There are some really freaky songs I could have featured. Instead, one more, one that I bet more than one music blog will feature this week.
Michael Jackson's Thriller, featuring Vincent Price. This mini-movie is a masterpiece.
And that's a scary, scary wrap.
You know what is next: same time, same place, next Monday, more music from #MusicMovesMe.

ReplyDeleteAlana,
ReplyDelete'Werewolf of London' is a fun song! The next four songs that followed are introductions which I enjoyed hearing for the first time even that crazy one 'Pyscho Chicken' that made me laugh. 'Thriller' is one of my favorite MJ's songs. Great song choices for this week's theme, my dear. Have a boogietastic week!
Thriller.
ReplyDeleteWhat- you can say something else after that?
Great playlist. Thriller is one of my favorites. And I love Werewolves of London and Boris the Spider. Not familiar with the other songs, but thanks for broadening my playlist.
