You have to admit that you wouldn't necessarily want to be in the midst of this crew.
Especially if they'd got a bit inebriated and...uhm...simultaneously pissed off about something.
Howlin' Wolf doesn't have the most soothing voice either.

"Tiny Demons" by Todd Rundgren:


"...and they won't ever leave,
but they won't show their faces to me..."

Chills are a good thing.

Another Brick in The Wall - Pink Floyd

Stevie Wonder's "Living For The City". It's just sounds so real that it's creepy.

I could definitely see that. As a kid it was the first song I was truly riveted by...and on my request had my mother play it for me over, and over, and over, and over, and...

It was my first sonic baptism by fire.

Bjork's "Isobel" (sp?)
NIN's "Closer" (perhaps it was the video, but this song brings forth bizarre images of bestiality and necrophilia. I used to Macarena to this in the clubs to avoid getting scared as it has the same beat, only slower).
Prince's "Had U"

Another truly scary song (although I wasn't so scared as much as shocked)



THE SPECIAL AKA FEATURING RHODA DAKAR - THE BOILER

I went out shopping last saturday
I was getting some gear, and this guy offered to pay
Who's the hunk? I think to myself
For so many years I've been left on the shelf
An old boiler

Then we went walking back down the high street
And I felt so proud because he looked so neat
He was a real hard man, tough as they come
He said I was cool but I still felt like
An old boiler

He bid me "Come out", how could I say no?
He said "Meet me at eight round my place, you know"
With my new gear on, and a blow dried hair-do
But in my mind I knew I was sill
An old boiler

We danced all night long to a nice steady beat
But my hair went to frizz in the terrible heat
My mascara ran, and so did my tights
Confirming in my sight, I must be
An old boiler

So we came out this club, hot and sweaty
Because we'd been dancing all night
And he says to me "Well babe, what you doing then?"
"Well I think I might get a cab" I said casually
"Nah nah, come back to my place, I only live just round the corner
You can go home in the morning, yeah?"
"Well I don't think so, I've only known you a day, It' a bit soon innit
Give me a ring sometime yeah?"
But then he starts to get mad
"Listen here girl, I bought that gear you got on, I paid you in here tonight
I bought you all them drinks and you wanna go home, I should bleedin coco"
And then he stormed off

Well, I felt a right mug, well you would wouldn't you
So I ran after him, caught him up
And here we are walking down this street about a hundred miles per hour
Arm in arm, no talking, atmosphere you could have cut with a knife

There's no-one about, nothing to take your mind off it you know
No cars, not even the occasional stray animal
It was cold and the wind's whistling through the tree's
Blowing newspapers accross my legs so I tripped as I tried to keep up with him
And there was all these alleyways and railway bridges, the stink of piss

The all of a sudden he grabbed hold of my arm
And he starts to drag me up one of these alleyways
Then he starts to hit me really hard across the face, you know
He was hitting me and grabbing at me
It was awful because he was, like, so big
Hitting me he was, and tearing at my clothes
There was nothing I could do honest, I was helpless
And then he tried to rape me, and there was nothing I could do, honest
All I could do was scream, no...

If you've never heard it, then you should.

I remember when buying this album on cassette, the entire album was on each side. After the first listen, I felt like asking my friends who were listening to it with me at the time to hold me.

But, being the Masochist I am, I had to turn the tape over and give it another listen.

" Mack The Knife"
became popular as a jazz tune with slightly less morbid lyrics, By Bobby Darin, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, etc....used as the melody for McDonald's " Big Mac Tonight" commercials in the mid -eighties...)

You can hear both versions at the beginning and end of the movie, "Quiz Show"

the original lyrics,
from Weill/Brecht's "Three Penny Opera"

The Ballad of Mac the Knife/ "Moritat" - original lyrics (Trans. from German by John Willett):

See the shark has teeth like razors
All can read his open face
And Macheath has got a knife, but
Not in such an obvious place

On a beautiful blue Sunday,
See a corpse stretched on the Strand
See a man dodge around the corner...
Mackie's friend's will understand.

And Schul Meier who is missing
Like so many wealthy men:
Mack the knife aquired his cashbox
God alone knows how or when

Jenny Tyler turned up lately
With a knife stuck in her breast
While Macheath walked the embankment,
Nonchalantly unimpressed

Where is Alfred Gleet the cabman?
Who can get that story clear?
All the world may know the answer,
but Macheath has no idea

And the ghastly fire in Soho,
Seven children at a go---
In the crowd stands Mac the knife, but
He's not asked and doesn't know

And the child bride in her nightgown,
Whose assailant's still at large
Violated in her slumber---
Mackie how much did you charge?

also I agree who ever said Michael - Little Susie but I think Morphine is more spooky. Little Susie is more 'sad' than spooky.

And basically anything by Marilyn Manson is spooky(but in a good way)

I might not have that wonderful rasp and bottom of the gut soul that he does, but I'm sure me singing would make you take cover!

paligap said:

Ooh shit pali, I forgot about that one.

Enjoy the Silence-- Depeche Mode

...though I still love that song

Theme song from Tales From the Darkside

I used to turn down the t.v. until the song was over. If I heard even one note I couldn't sleep

Theme song from Unsolved Mysteries

NWF said:

Good pick.

GangstaFam said:

I Agree Gansta ~ also, Thee Full Pack by Psychic TV and Us or Them by The Cure (just heard this live in Detroit Wednesday night and while it was amazing I was a wreck through the whole thing).

Another is Sanvean by Lisa Gerrard. It is one of my favourite songs ever but the images it conjures in my mind are so eerie and disturbing.

bjork - gloomy sunday

if ur the kinda person that pays attention to a song and really takes in the lyrics this song is spooky in a sad way. really depressing.

aretha franklin - mary don't u weep
prince - anna steisa
jimi hendrix - red house

its not really spooky its just the way the songs climax and the way they sing it..u kno? makes u feel what they're saying.

Suffer the Little Children - The Smiths

Windowpane by Coil

"March To The Witch's Castle"-Funkadelic

Stevie Wonder's "Village Ghetto Land".....No Stevie! I don't want to go with you!!

"Hey you" by Pink Floyd.....another scary song.....

"Men & Women" - Inxs

"They Won't Go When I Go" - Stevie Wonder

The musical score to "Carrie".
The first being the one played before the pig blood is dumped on her.
The second being the one at the end of the movie when her hand comes out of her grave.
Pretty skincrawling shit!

Love & Light,

Quietsoul

Benjamin Britten - War requiem (actually everything the man composed)
Orf - Carmina Burana
