S5: B.T.R.C. Podcast Special Event - The Top 10 Halloween Songs of All Time
On this episode of the Blind Tiger Record Club Podcast, David W. Williams is joined by Kevin Lee and Jonathan Hibma to present the first ever B.T.R.C. Podcast Special Event: The Top 10 Halloween Songs of All Time. On this show, we will discuss songs by Stevie Wonder, The Doors, Michael Jackson, Warren Zevon, Blue Oyster Cult, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Ray Parker Jr, AC/DC, Rockwell, and Bobby "Boris" Pickett & the Crypt Kickers. The songs are discussed and clips of songs are played. We talk about charts, both at the time of the song's original release and any "re-entry" into Billboard's Hot 100 every Halloween. We discuss TV and Film syncs, and the many cultural impacts that all the songs have had which is why they are on our G.O.A.T. list.
We also present other important Halloween songs that are TV Themes, big film songs, or other culturally important songs as our transitions between each song on our Top 10 list. This allows the panel to discuss ten more songs that include Halloween defining songs such as the themes of John Carpenter's Halloween, Tales from the Crypt, The Twilight Zone, Addams Family, and Stranger Things. We also discuss other soundtrack and Halloween songs like Danny Elfman's "This Is Halloween" from Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds' "Red Right Hand" made famous by the Scream franchise. Andrew Gold's internet sensation "Spooky Scary Skeletons" and the genre bending song by the godfathers of "Horror Punk", the Misfits' "Halloween". We also discuss a second song from the Stranger Things franchise that utilizes an amazing sampling of Journey's "Separate Ways".
It's a really fun way to celebrate a lot of the incredible music surrounding Halloween.
