some horror songs
 
I don't listen to much music anymore, but I remember that some band had a vampire song called "After Dark."
Back in the 1980's, when I was still watching music videos, I saw a really creepy one "I always feel like somebody's watching me."
And one music video I wouldn't mind seeing again is Billy Idol's "White Wedding."

"Everyday"-Buddy Holly

anglewitch 10-12-2018 04:40 PM

Everybody needs to believe in something
I believe I'll have another beer

Fundamental
Gun controllers
Right to lifers
Holy rollers

Searching for identity it's clear
Everybody needs to believe in something
I believe I'll have another beer

Frogs in combat
Bus in schools
More bullshit
From monkey fools

Ain't got a s_____lls chance in hell for an idea
Everybody needs to believe in something
I believe I'll have another beer

That's way to fast
The truth cuts too close
You can't sell that
On either coast

I just happened to catch a vid of this guy appreciating this live performance of Glenn Campbell doing Gentle on my Mind. He's sitting with Country Music greats in a live TV show. Glen's guitar break is impressive. But I also found the song lyrics and delivery eye opening... it's a story poetically worded; there's no chorus. The original recording doesn't even have a guitar break. It's an interesting style.

I never heard this before. This does rock! Can you imagine the alternate reality where 50% of the Osmonds songs were like this?



Interesting story behind it too... wiki:

Singer Merrill Osmond said of the song, "Before that, my brothers and I had been what’s now called a boyband: all our songs were chosen for us by the record company. But now, having been successful, we wanted to freak out and make our own music. We were rehearsing in a basement one day when Wayne started playing this heavy rock riff. I came up with a melody and Alan got the chords. Within an hour, we had the song. I had always been the lead singer, but I sang Crazy Horses with Jay. The line “What a show, there they go, smoking up the sky” had to be sung higher, so I did that and Jay did the verses because his voice was growlier, and this track was heavier than anything we’d ever done." Merrill Osmond also added that the record company initially was skeptical the song would be successful but relented when it performed well in the charts (particularly in the United Kingdom, where the song proved to be a breakthrough for the quintet, as well as much of the rest of Europe).[3]

Jay Osmond said, "The song was recorded at MGM in Hollywood and we added that distinctive “Wah! Wah!” intro sound afterwards. Alan had written the lyrics, which talked about horsepower, and he said: “It’s got to sound like a horse somehow. We tried everything, then finally found something on Donny’s organ that sounded like a neighing stallion."[3]

Donny, the usual co-lead, had no vocal parts because his voice was changing, due to puberty. The record was co-produced by Alan Osmond and Michael Lloyd, who had previously been in the psychedelic rock group The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band.

Jay Osmond said, "Crazy Horses was way ahead of its time. It’s a song about ecology and the environment: those “crazy horses, smoking up the sky” are gas-guzzling cars, destroying the planet with their fumes. We shot the record sleeve in a junkyard, surrounded by big old cars."[3][4]

Censorship
Sales of the song were prohibited in apartheid-era South Africa, where government censors interpreted the word 'horses' as referring to heroin.[5][6][7]

The song was also banned in France when authorities believed the lyric “smoking up the sky” was about drugs.[3]

That would be quite a Universe, Sculpt! My wife was a big fan when she was a teen (Big crush on Merrill) and she had a lot of their albums. Some good rocking singles (nice Horn work too) like "Yo-Yo", "Hold Her Tight" (sounds like a sped up "Immigrant Song" by Zep) and "Down by the Lazy River".

I feel tears wellin' up cold deep inside
Like my heart's sprung a big break
And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful
That I may never shake

You might say that I was taking it hard
Since you wrote me off with a call
But don't you wager that I'll hide in sorrow
When I may lay right down and bawl

Now the race is on
And here comes pride in the backstreatch
Heartaches goin' to the inside
My tears are holdin' back
They're tryin' not to fall
My hearts out of the runnin'
True love's scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
And the winner looses all

One day I ventured in love
Never once suspectin' what the final result would be
And how I lived in fear of waking up each morning
Finding that you're gone from me
There's ache and pain in my heart
For today was the one that I hated to face
Somebody new came up to win her
And I came out in second place

Now the race is on
And here comes pride in the back stretch
Heartaches goin' to the inside
My tears are holdin' back
They're tryin' not to fall
My hearts out of the runnin'
True love's scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
And the winner looses all
