sniff...

sigh.

no more AT40 countdowns.  siriusxm's dropped the show sometime in the last 3 months (whilst my sundays were busy, of course).

still, nice while it lasted.

tonite's spooky playlist...

started with a little disney...

• Fantasia's Night on Bald Mountain
• Nightmare's This Is Halloween and What's This
• Fantasia 2000's shortened Beethoven 5
• Cruella deville

moving into the new wave with

• Bela Legosi's Dead
• Big Pig's I Can't Break Away
• David Bowie's Scary Monsters
• Don't Pay The Ferryman
• Eurythmics Sweet Dreams
• Welcome to the Pleasuredome
• Golden Earing's Twilight Zone
• INXS Devil Inside
• Kate Bush's Running Up That Hill

so far, not many.  rain's scared the (parents of the) little ones in for a little while, though it seems to have stopped.  a few 11-13 yr olds, though.  it doesn't help that 3 of the 5 houses in the cul de sac are "dark" (one of which has never done the trick or treat thang).

• Madness's House Of Fun
• Men At Work - Who Can It Be, Dr. Heckyll, and Still Life
• Dead Man's Party and Weird Science
• Planet P's Why Me?
• B52s Channel Z
• The Cure - Lullaby, and the extended mix of Fascination Street
• The Fixx's Sign Of Fire
• Depeche Mode's Enjoy the Silence

better numbers (one big batch), and now we're heading into classic rock zone

• Alice Cooper's Poison, Elected (right time of year for it?), Nightmare
• Pink Floyd's Astronomy Domine and Welcome to the Machine
• Rush's Witch Hunt and Roll The Bones
• Sting's I Burn For You
• Jefferson Starship's Stranger
• Phil Collins's In The Air Tonite
• The Gathering's Nighttime Birds

and into film scores to wind down, but though they're queued, it's already 8:45 and it's been a LONG time since the last knock...

• opening credits, Batman Begins
• The Temple of Doom
• Start The Countdown and End Credits (The Black Hole)
• V-jur Flyover (Star Trek I)
• Crash & Whale Fugue (Star Trek 4)
• Main title and Mountain Visions - Close Encounters
