Ghosts and Spirits and Monsters, Oh My....
So, it's Halloween. There have been so many songs relative to this holiday in "spirit" or in theme.
I'm sort of tired,so I'll just start off with a few, but let's see how many Spirits In The Material (and beyond) World we can name.
Monster Mash (too obvious--sorry)
Ghost Riders In The Sky
Strange Things Happen In this World (Last Night At the Dance I Met Laurie)
I Had To Much To Dream Last Night
Teen Angel
Frankenstein
Elvira
Okee dokee. You ghoul it a try!
