Today’s music video of the day is for another song from Thom Yorke’s soundtrack to the upcoming Suspiria remake or rehash or reboot or whatever it is. I’m not really happy about the movie but I do like what I’ve heard of the soundtrack.
Enjoy!

Well, it’s not quite Halloween but it will be Halloween very soon! To be honest, Halloween starts the weekend before the 31st. So, happy Halloween!
This song, of course, comes from Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. There’s many different covers that you can find floating around YouTube. This is one of my favorites.
Enjoy!
To be honest, I think this song is more about the masks that people wear as a part of everyday life, as opposed to being specifically about Halloween masks. Just check out the lyrics:
Fashion magazines
Anti-aging creams
Tape measure around your waist
Whitening toothpaste
Behind this mask
Lies an ugly face
An entitled child dressed in lace
Halloween mask
I wear it every day
Halloween mask
Beneath my skin is gray

Still, even if it’s not really a “horror” video, it’s a good song and I still think that Peach Kelli Pop should be hired to perform the Silver Shamrock jingle next Halloween.
Enjoy!
What can I say about this video?
The song is haunting, melancholy, and beautiful.
The video is creepy as Hell.
Enjoy!
Halloween All Year sounds like a great idea to me!
Or, at least, it does until you actually pay attention the lyrics of this song, the majority of which involve a knife and a body on the ceiling. Actually, now that I think about it, I guess part of the appeal of Halloween is that you actually have to wait for it. You wait for 9 months and then suddenly, it’s the greatest 31 days of the year!
As for the video, I like it because it has a prom gone wrong feel to it.
Enjoy!
For today’s music video of the day, we have yet another song called Dracula. However, as you can tell by looking at the lyrics, this song actually has some connection to everyone’s favorite vampire (or, at the very least, the legend of everyone’s favorite vampire):
Her
She was a dancer
Feel
As the girl she twirls off the edge of her paper-thin world
The “I”
Give to the Master
Mirror, mirror
Can you tell one from the other?
Strange
I offer my veins
Feel
As the girl she twirls off the edge of her paper-thin world
Oh in the night
When Dracula comes to fill your soul
To atone, confess
My one true weakness
My Dracula, Count Dracula
Her
She was a dancer
(First I must appease my thirst)
Feels
Good you know as the girl she twirls off the edge of her world
Oh in the night
When Dracula comes to fill your soul
To atone, confess
My one true weakness
My Dracula, Count Dracula
Oh in the night
When Dracula comes to fill your soul
To atone, confess
My one true weakness
My Dracula, Count Dracula
According to singer Moana Mayatrix, “I’d say it’s not directly about vampires but more so an exploration of vampire mythology and the allure of the dark side, much like being seduced by a Bram Stoker character.”
Enjoy!
It’s debatable whether or not this song from Vondelpark is actually about the Lord of the Vampires but I imagine he’d appreciate it. Myself, I love the atmospheric, dream-like feel of both the song and the video. Just listening to this puts me into another world.
Sadly, Vondelpark is no more. They broke up in 2016. But Dracula lives forever.
Enjoy!
Today’s music video of the world is for another song from Thom Yorke’s soundtrack for the upcoming Suspiria film.
Given how much I love Argento’s original, I’m not particularly enthusiastic about a new version, especially when so many people think that the proper way to support the new version is to denigrate the original. Still, so far, I’m liking what I’ve score of Yorke’s score.
Enjoy!

I know, I know.
This song isn’t really about the Frankenstein that we all know and love, the one who reanimated the dead and who declared himself to be God.
Oh well, no matter!
It still feels appropriate for October.
Enjoy!
This just seems right for Halloween, no?
Enjoy!
