Sujet : Music You Would Recommend for Halloween

Membre supprimé

Well since there is 27 more days til Halloween, I thought it would be a good idea to make a couple of topics about the holiday here in the RG forums. The first thread will talk about the music being played during Halloween. What kind of spooky, creepy, goosebump-ish tunes would you play for Halloween?

Perhaps a thread like this could give people ideas if they want to throw a Halloween party this year, but have no idea what kind of music they want to play.

Here are a few music tracks I would like to throw out.

In the Dark of the Night - Anastasia
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1vDqgsbyhQ

Nightmare (Original Sinister Strings Remix)- Brainbug
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuV9m-KswhE

Thriller - Micheal Jackson
(well of course this song absolutely needs to be mentioned)

Monster Mash - Bobby "Boris ' Pickett and The Crypt-Kickers

I'm sure that not all the music you can find needs to have a Halloween theme to it. Anything that sounds creepily epic or would give you shivers down your spine is acceptable too. Don't hesitate to post them here. We won't bite you. emoji

Those are some good suggestions there, me thinks emoji but hmm I dont celebrate it anymore… but I did enjoy Halloween a lot when I was a kid, going around with my friends and getting bags of lollies emoji

Well perhaps it may not be a big deal in where you live, but it's definitely huge in Canada and the States just because of the whole commercialism and holiday sales over there like in every other holiday.

I only tend to celebrate it just because I have friends who are into Halloween and I have one friend who's birthday is a day before Halloween. So there are reasons why October can be quite busy for me.

It is fun when you are a kid, I agree but I find people who are around my age still go out and trick or treat. I am too old for that stuff, so I prefer going out to parties and hang out with friends instead.

I love halloween cause it just rocks even though I never went trick or treating or go to any festivels ever

I have one friend who's birthday is a day before Halloween.


I have a friend who has a birthday on the 30th as well she lives in germany emoji

Heh yeah, I imagine it would be a big thing over there. It's not too big here, but there are a lot of kids who go out trick-or-treating emoji

I last went out trick-or-treating when I was 13 I think… I used to like making my own costumes too now and then, lol. But yeah, parties for Halloween are kinda unheard of around here, but there are always halloween movies on TV at that time.

I wonder if we're just going to talk about Halloween in this thread, or am I going to be the only one who would post creepy music here? emoji

Oh well, I guess it could be both, but other members can recommend other creepy tunes here. I cannot be doing all the work you know. emoji

EDIT!

I cannot believe that I forgot to add these songs and tracks to the list.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQ6iq1a1_oU&feature=related


Wow! I cannot believe I forgot about Disturbia. But then again, I am not a fan of Rihanna.

Also, that Muppet's version of Wizard of Oz was just… a little messed, especially seeing Miss.Piggy in an outfit like that. emoji

Bumping this thread up!

Does anyone else have any other songs to be added to the Halloween soundtrack list?

Michael Jackson - Thriller (surprised this wasn't mentioned yet!!)


Actually, I DID mentioned MJ's Thriller in the beginning of this thread. I know I posted many song links from one post to another, but I know I wouldn't forget the Halloween themed song that everyone knows from Michael Jackson. emoji

It's strange how you place The Forest Temple from Zelda: OOT as a song for Halloween. I've always found the the Forest Temple music to be anonymous and tribal than creepy, though I'm sure some people may get goosebumps while listening to the track.
