Laga,
I can send you the Pogues and the Bing/Bowie songs.
'Out Of Gas'
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.
Laga,
I can send you the Pogues and the Bing/Bowie songs.
thanks for the offer megan! But you don't need to- I have them both in other places.

Much love.
We like Christmas Island, an old one by Leon Redbone.
So, who's ready for some Halloween music?
I'm trying to get a 2008 mix together, so we'll see if I can get that together in time.
However, I do have a mix I've been working on that's closer to completion that is a dark, Halloweeny, windswept moors mix. More eerie and otherwordly in some instances than straight up horror. Though there are some full-on horror songs as well.
On the horror side I've got tracks like "Lady Eleanor" by Lindisfarne (a song about Roderick Usher's sister), "The Werewolf" by Barry Dransfield (tragical lyncanthropy), "Graveyard" by Forest.
On the otherworldy side I've got things like "Queen of the Moonlight World" by Andy Roberts, a very menacing version of "Jabberwocky" by Donovan and "Beyond the Fields We Know" - which is from a musical version of The King of Elfland's Daughter featuring narration by Christopher Lee.
Oh, I've also got the corn cribs song from the original Wicker Man.
Any interest in bleak, beautiful and eerie folk music for Halloween?
Also, I'm thinking about just posting my Darklings mix of chamber goth and dark cabaret. Though maybe you all have Hannah Fury and suchlike.
ooh we got blogged already!
And, I was ready for H'ween music but then it got all summery here again.
ooh we got blogged already!
Cool beans. And you're in good company too.
Hey, awesome! Largehearted Boy is a great blog. Nice to see them give you the much-deserved love.
