In 18th place with 2 points

Irish Aris

Annie Lennox-Love Song for a Vampire (from Dracula)

Have I heard of this song: Yes

I’ve been kinda blessed so far (scary songs aside) with the quality of songs coming in, unfortunately this one and the one below just don’t do anything for me. Sorry

In 3rd place with 17 points:

Rikand

The Small Faces - Itchycoo Park

Have I heard of this song: No

It’s like what I said about Hush, these songs just cast aside the gloom and pick me up after a rather trialling few days, and I don't just mean this contest Great choice, that chorus is amazeballs.

Choon!:) Unfortunate that that foghorn from M People butchered it and that's the version they always play on the wireless:(

In 2nd Place with 18 points:

ShaneU

Harry Belafonte - Day-o (Banana Boat Song)

Have I heard of this song: Yes

This is just a classic, Beetlejuice is a guilty pleasure fave of mine and I watch it at least once a year – this scene is up there with my faves. Fab choice.

Trigger · 31-10-2020 10:21pm

Oh for **** sake.... pleaseeeeeee

Reberetta

Polica - Very Cruel

Yeah I’m really sorry. I did try with this but it just hurts my brain with the electronic buzzing. I think I’m just worn down after a couple of days of screaming banshees :pac:

Trigger · 31-10-2020 10:26pm

:pac:

That would be the most Halloweeny terrifying thing ever

Trigger · 31-10-2020 10:26pm

Omg omg omg..

Necro · 31-10-2020 10:27pm

In JOINT 1st place, with 19 points – yep, it happened again…

Trigger
AND
MicksJaguar

The Man Comes Around’ - Johnny Cash

You can’t really deny Cash the top spot. It’s from one of my fave horror movies and it just fits perfectly into this round. Phenomenal choice that should really have been submitted to the ongoing Movie Song Contest. Just amazing.

31-10-2020 10:27pm

Aww I quite like that Poliça track.

Congrats on the win Trigger, its about time you won one... speaking of things that are about time though, can we start pestering to finish your Walrus now?

Congrats to Necro for turning around such a fun Walrus in such a short amount of time, there was some work put in to that.

Congrats to my fellow second-placers, that was some final round.

Congrats to tusk on the wooden spoon.

Congrats to everyone else for achieving points of various numerical value.

Irish Aris

Diamanda Galas-I Put A Spell On You

Had I heard this song before: NO!

Sweet mother of JAYSUS DIVINE – the banshee warbling in this track is enough to give someone permanent mental damage.

It’s awful. But it’s terrifying, and that was the point of this round – so well done. Now let us never speak of this again.

Ah here pmsl at this

:D
From about 1.44 it goes totally bonkers. I do wonder about the type of people into this kinda stuff

Mustang shelly

John Williams - Jaws Theme

Have I heard of this song: Yes

This is just a classic. It’s so iconic it really couldn’t go much lower. I think the effects are lost a little bit without the movie but it’s still an amazing piece.

Kinda disliked this song just because it reminds me of the movie which I'm not fond of. Too old for me, & wouldn't be into watching it ever again.

But I've a whole new appreciation for the song now after hearing it posted here tonight

The Highwaymen - (Ghost) Riders In The Sky

This feels incredibly harsh because I absolutely adore this track, but I just felt the new music I was introduced to in this round deserved higher placing. It’s bloody great though. Yippeee Hai OOOO

Asks for a scary song, gets one that gives them the heeby jeebies, 2nd last place.
Asks for a good song, gets a song they adore, 3rd last place.
You're like ordering takeaway for a difficult woman. "i'll eat anything.....no, I don't want Chinese.... Or chipper..... I love Thai food but don't want it now"
:pac:

Great thréad, necro. Congrats to the winners
