Did you miss me?
I am Ba...ack!
Tonight is my night, mot that whining Whywhy´s and tonight we trip it my way, not dead Frank´s way.
Welcome To The Scary Shitsjow once again. It's been a year but get ready for.....
"This is the best show. Believe me, nobody does it better. People are talking about it everywhere. And the playlist? Unbelievable. Just incredible. Everyone’s saying it’s the greatest playlist ever made. They’ve never seen anything like it. It’s that good!"
The Best Playlist of the Year
I can´t wait for this day when the veils grow thin and they there on the other side can move into our world and haunt us for real.
Not the wimpy woken-up frozen sensation but boiling close and breathing in our necks experience.
This is gonna be my favorite trip of the year, a trip unlike any other although I would not mind doing a dark set like this every week.
Let's start with something very now, that Wednesday Adams feel.
That Dance would work on any Goth song, but I like it if they try to do the Wednesday themselves and well it would be good to cleanse our souls before getting into contact with Ghost & Ghouls.
New Haunts - Cleanse
Halloween falls on a Wiccan sabbat called Samhain. Wiccans celebrate Samhain by paying respect to nature, honoring the dead, holding bonfires, and communicating with spirits.
This trip is nothing without a witchy ballad.
GATHA x GAGA - Bloody Mary x The Ballad of the Witches
Then one day it´s time for Death to come and pick you up, Dear Reader. How do you want him to arrive at your front door?
Dressed in black and inviting you for a ride into the afterlife?
Mothica - Afterlife
That intro howl, so Thriller...and that man was a monster if the haunting story would be true but what happens in Neverland....stays in Neverland. This still feels like a Twisted MJ tribute for too many reasons (just check those red jackets and werewolf moves).
Motionless In White - Werewolf
Anything is a good excuse to play Palaye Royale, they might be my biggest discovery this year. These guys have everything to create songs to die for.
Sick sanity, disturbed and deranged pressed into an epic musical straitjacket.
PALAYE ROYALE - Tonight Is The Night I Die
Now this song means the world to me, Danse Macabre in the Efteling exists. Trust me, it´s real and you can find it in Epicas homecountry.
EPICA - The Ghost In Me (Danse Macabre)
Sorry for her terrible Dutch accent:
Do I have to play this song every Halloween????
Yes, but I try to play a new version every year- but it´s just the best vampire cult movie song ever.
Lyric Noel - Cry Little Sister
This next guy must have stolen his name from Wes....
And I am pretty sure I played the sick freak with a different twisted tune last year, but what would Halloween be without Guts and Gore?
Kitz Kraven - Red Light Green Light...DEAD!
This is an awesome mix, when I saw this I was like yes, yes, bloody yes. I like Bad Omens and I looove Poppy so how terrible can this combo be.....
Sickeninly terrible, stomach twisting terrorrific....
BAD OMENS x POPPY - V.A.N
It has been so hard to limit myself tonight but I did good, or bad, or evil, but I stuck to the format going out with a bang and leaving you with an amazing and unexpected encore.
Encore
Pink Pony Club + Phantom of the Opera MASHUP
What Song to Send my Son
My son started a playlist Stuff For Dad and I will be adding my favorite song to my playlist for him: Songs For My Son!
Every week I have to choose one song and tell you about it. And you Dear Reader tell me your favorite song in the comments and feel free to try to change my mind.
Probably not my favorite song on the list but I need to add these guys to his playlist:
PALAYE ROYALE - Tonight Is The Night I Die
Please try and change my mind!
