MUSIC: Songs Of The Day - Halloween Edition (Oct 31): "Time Warp" from Rocky Horror Picture Show And "Science Fiction Double Feature"

Yep, last one! Thank God I can some of you say!

And to end it all, I can't think of a song for fitting than "Time Warp" from The Rocky Horror Picture Show!



But since it's Halloween, I added "Science Fiction Double Feature" by Me First And The Gimme Gimmes The Rocky Horror Punk Rock Show, a punk rock tribute to the musical.



I was going to add The Groovy Ghoules version of "Time Warp", but I couldn't find it on YouTube and my videomaker was being a piece of crap! So I'll suggest you look it up!

MUSIC: Song Of The Day - Halloween Edition (Oct 30): "Sympathy For The Devil" By The Rolling Stones

Can't think of a better penultimate song for my Halloween cavalcade of tunes than The Rolling Stones' "Sympathy For The Devil". Also included a really good strip down version of the song by Jane's Addiction!

This is as close to the original as I could find on YouTube...

MUSIC: Song Of The Day - Halloween Edition (Oct 29): The Themes From The Exorcist and Halloween

Just a couple of great horror movie themes - "Introduction" from Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells (used for the theme of The Exorcist) and the theme to the movie Halloween by John Carpenter.





And here's a great video with a guy putting lyrics to the Halloween theme. It's pretty funny!

MUSIC: Song Of The Day - Halloween Edition (Oct 28): "Superstition" By Stevie Wonder

Just adding this song - "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder - because it's pretty such a standard for any Halloween collection - and it's a great dance to boot. Besides, you got to love that opening riff!

MUSIC: Song Of The Day - Halloween Edition (Oct 27): "The Horror Of Party Beach", "The Thing From Uranus", and "The Queen From Outer Space"

These - "The Horror Of Party Beach", "The Thing From Uranus", and "The Queen From Outer Space" - are just the 3 songs by the punk band, Sloppy Seconds, that have a horror theme to them.

I don't know much about this band. They came out when I was living in Africa, and I just discovered them recently through Pandora Radio.

But I think they're a lot of fun and that they can be rather humorous, and I hope you will too.


This video is stupid, but it has the song...

Music That I've Enjoyed Recently

My Internet Radio Stations


This is a fairly good sampling of some of the music I listen to. It's missing a few genres I like - such as cajun. I'll work on that later. But it does contain most of my favorite artists. I tried to steer away from the better known songs to give you a better idea of what kind of music the artists play, but I was limited by the songs the website - Project Playlist - had available. But if you want to get an idea of what I listen to, just hit the play or arrow button. - OlderMusicGeek

The internet station that does the best of playing my music is Last.fm. Here's my station if you're interested.

This website, OlderMusicGeek Radio on Pandora.com, does a fairly decent job of playing what I like, although they do occasionally play stuff I don't care for, but overall they're pretty good.
