"Evil Ways" by Santana

Happy Halloween!  I used most of my favorite Halloween songs last year, but this classic song is at least somewhat related.

"Jump Into the Fire" by Harry Nilsson

I had completely forgotten about this song until I found a copy of the Nilsson Shmilsson CD in a discount bin and when I played it I remembered I love this song.  The psychedelic video is kind of fun too.

"Green Door" by Jim Lowe

I remember this is one of my favorite 45's from a very young age.  The first video shows pictures of many different records and sleeves, it's cool!

"The People Who Grinned Themselves to Death" by The Housemartins

This came on KCQN Utah this morning as part of the "Halloweenie" weekend, it's a great song so I had to post it.

Note: I'm not sure the lyrics in the above video are exactly correct.  Like I think the line around 1:58 should be "And when they took her riches it was sad".

"From My Window" by Swing Out Sister

I was trying to clean up my office yesterday and found Swing Out Sister's "Where Our Love Grows" CD in a stack of CDs.  So I put it in and listened while continuing the futile effort of cleaning up this mess.  (I did get one of the computers reassembled and off the floor.)  I decided that I had to add this song to my list of favorites.

"Everything Must Change" by George Benson

I think a George Benson "Twin Spin" is in order.  I never realized until tonight this was an 8 minute song.
