'Get It Done'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
I don't have the Fresh Prince, smonster, but I have posted a lot of Halloween music at both Buffistarawks. Search under Halloween or "Toil and Trouble."
I think something like Harry Belafonte's "Zombie Jamboree" would probably work for bellydancing. Also the Addams Family exploitation dance song, "The Lurch" is a big favorite around our house.
Anyway, there's a lot to check out there.
Awesome! Thanks, Hec. I'll definitely go check them out.
Also check out..."The Vampire Club" by Voltaire, "Swingin' at the Seance" (40s era swing), "Remains of the Day" - Danny Elfman (from Corpse Bride) and "I'm a Vampire" by Future Bible Heroes. But wait! There's more... t /K-Tel
Funny-- I was just listening to Vince Guaraldi's "Great Pumpkin Waltz."
Not so much for the dancing, but still, fun.
::laughing at Hec's K-Tel moment::
Oh my goodness, Hec, I am happy as a pig in shit zombie in a vat of brains. ::rubs hands with glee::
My previous Halloween dance numbers have been, in order: "Double Trouble" from Harry Potter (my performance debut), "Black #1" Type O Negative, and "Devil's Stomping Ground" Southern Culture on the Skids.

Excellent choices! I have a lot of Southern Culture on the Skids including "Zombified" and "Undertaker." I think I also posted "Do the Hippogriff" up there. Which you probably already have if you have "Double Trouble."
Love the fuzzy dice!
I've been listening to John Williams' "Exsultate Justi" from Empire of the Sun on an almost endless loop the past few days. Reminds me of how much I love this type of exuberant orchestral church-style music. The cheerful, triumphant pieces, as opposed to the Masses or dirges.
Now, I just need to find more in modo di.
Bernstein's got some crazy faux-church stuff. You might try "Chichester Psalms" and his "Mass", which is probably one of the few classical(ish) masses in existence with some lyrics by Paul Simon.
And if you're feeling very adventurous, I like his "Kaddish Symphony."
