    That'll be one long category reveal 😂

    Still, count me in 😋

    There's something comforting about being around someone who understands your need for silence & space. You don't have to fill the air with words or explanations, they just get it..

    Why thank you ☺️.

    I knew that song wouldn't do well but I like it's witchyness.

    & I like when it comes on in my playlists because it calms me down a bit from when I get a bit too excited listening to the heavier stuff 🤪.

    They're both stunning too so I like the video

    Halloween was a great round!

    @Necro common mistake with Rockwell, but that's because Jacko sings that one line on the chorus that everyone remembers about the song.

    The songs that most caught my attention (again, outside of the classics - MJ etc):

    -Goldengirl's Echo and the Bunnymen: an absolute classic.

    -Leg End Reject's Citizens of Halloweentown: The Nightmare Before Christmas!!

    -Arghus' Henry Cowell: very avant garde, almost atonal, really intrigued by the sound of the string/prepared piano.

    -ShaneU's Misfits: just on the right side of the punk rock that I like.

    -Kolido's Dokken: remember them vaguely from the 80s hair rock phase, but never listened to them in detail.

    -jluv's Rocky Horror Picture Show: what a great musical!

    -Electric Nitwit's Arab Strap: great song and a band that I need to search more and

    -SineadSpears' Motionless In White: proper goth/industrial rock. Definitely one to search further, if the vocals are clean/not distorted, a band that could be in my playlists for years to come.

    2025 gigs: Selofan, Alison Moyet, Wardruna, Gavin Friday, Orla Gartland, The Courettes, Nine Inch Nails, Rhiannon Giddens, New Purple Celebration, Nova Twins

    Excellent Walrus Necro. Thanks for running it. Glad I've introduced you to a new Halloween song. It's completely silly but it's a good one. I'm happy enough with a mid table showing.

    Thanks so much to @Necro for all the work put into this!

    Congrats @ShaneU and @Electric Nitwit . I'm super happy with third after my serious gaff on the nonsensical round 🤗

    Really enjoyed it and looking forward to the next one @ShaneU 😜

    Maybe the spooner and the winner should collaborate on a walrus, like a 'He Said, She Said' battle :D

    I was like: who's the spooner?

    Oh yeah...

    Yeah, I'd totally do a Walrus, if no-one else is dying to do it.

    I am prepared to grab the 'rus by the tusks.

    Well, if there's no objections I'm happy enough to take up the mantle?

    Yes, go ahead Arghus.

    I think you were about to host one a few years ago, but Vanilla happened...
