FRIDAY NON-RANDOM TEN - HALLOWE’EN EDITION

Well, not quite Hallowe’en... but close enough.

It’s the Friday right before the annual Scary-Ghosty-Trick-or-Treaty Ritual, a mere two days away. And so, instead of the usual assortment of Randomly-Selected Choonage from the Little White Choon-Box, today’s list is specially chosen to be appropriate for the Seasonal Festivities. Boo!

Let’s see what’s playing:

1. Ghost Town - The Specials
   
   This town is coming like a ghost town
   All the clubs have been closed down
   This place is coming like a ghost town
   Bands won’t play no more
   Too much fighting on the dance floor
   
   Do you remember the good old days
   Before the ghost town?
   We danced and sang
   And the music played inna de boomtown
   
   This town is coming like a ghost town
   Why must the youth fight against themselves?
   Government leaving the youth on the shelf
   This place is coming like a ghost town
   No job to be found in this country
   Can’t go on no more
   The people getting angry
   
   This town is coming like a ghost town
   This town is coming like a ghost town
   This town is coming like a ghost town
   This town is coming like a ghost town

3. I Scare Myself - Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks
   
   
4. Devorzhum - Dead Can Dance
   
   
5. Dead Man’s Dream - Procol Harum
   
   
6. Dead - They Might Be Giants
