Good song. I'm sure there was a reference (or at least a very fitting title) considering the Horror imagery in some of the lyrics.

Other Monochrome Set titles which were film titles: Alphaville (their debut single, I think), The Devil Rides Out, The Ruling Class. It's not a complete list, but a good indication of where some of their titles came from.

I'm not sure if I heard of them before, there are sorta a recent discovery.

A band I'm more fimilar with is the Psychedelic Furs. I absolutely love their song "Ghost in You" it is such a perfect recording, perfect choice of keyboard sound etc. "Ghost Office" sound like it's done with all analog synths (and electronic drums). "Ghost Riders" The Outlaws pays homage to those who recorded the song before them especially Johnny Cash, you can hear Luther Perkins' boom-chicka-boom style being imitated, the guitar playing really picks up @ 4:00.

All three are really great songs imo, and I guess it probably has to do with the fact "Ghost" is in the title.
