Oh my, you need to listen to some more Bauhaus. "Bela Legosi's Dead" is a fun song but they have a lot of really great music. Depends on your style I guess but they're not the gloom and doom band a lot of people think they are.

Damnit. I've been trying to make a better thread, like this, for like 3 days. But I've always been running out the door, or busy. I'ma post a mix and reasons behind it. In no order, of course. (Who starts a mix off with the Eagles? Jesus.)

Witchy Woman - Eagles - Because it's about a mysterious woman. And the weird, chant-y chorus is Halloween-y. (I am an idiot.)

I Put A Spell On You - Nina Simone - One of the ultimate Halloween songs, for me. Enchanting voice the woman has. Magical.

Down With The Sickness - Richard Cheese - Who don't love creepy, jazzy covers of "metal" songs?

Werewolves of London - Warren Zevon - Not exactly scary or creepy. But it's cool and it's weird, crazy and it has werewolves in it.

Sweet Dreams Are Made of This - Annie Lennox & the Eurythmics - It's creepy. She's creepy. Moreso that Celine Dion. And that's saying ****.

Don't Fear the Reaper - Blue Oyster Cult - Immediate disqualification for it's involvement with JHalloween? NO. ****ing great song. Creeply. Death, drugs, sex, love.

Lexicon Devil - The Germs - This is self-explanitory. And it ****ing rules. The Germs are better than the Sex Pistols.

Magic Man - Heart - Awesome riffs, gives the heir of being somewhat creepy. About a mystical man. Sure.

Season of the Witch - Hole - Only reason I didn't choose Donovan's is because it seemed to calm. Even though I despise Courtney Love, I like Hole's songs somewhat. Her voice is gritty, she's scary, the song is cool.

White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane - See BOC explanation.

If Only - Queens of the Stone Age - Creepy. Loud. Vocals. Yes.

In A Gadda Da Vida - Slayer - I get bored with the Iron Butterfly 20 min. version. And this is more hardcore.

Venus in Furs - Velvet Underground - Creepy. Like you can picture it in a dessert somewhere, scary. Entrancing.

I have a soft spot for this band (already mentioned) even though they can be a little contrived. Type O negative-Everything Dies:

There is a decent version of "This is Halloween" by Marilyn Manson.

And a version of "What's This" by Fallout Boy.

I was recently researching music for my own party and found those. Nightmare Before Christmas is a classic and those are fun tunes that I think everyone will recognize and enjoy.

Marilyn Manson=Great Halloween music.
