1.The Monster Mash. Considering it inspired the whole idea, this song had to be included in the final list. It also is just super catchy and neither of us can stop ourselves from dancing whenever we hear it.
2. Thriller. Being a child of the 80's, I simply couldn't let this song be excluded from the list. Honestly, I had forgotten how it sticks in one's head. We had plans to learn the dance, but they have not yet come to fruition.
3. Ghostbusters. Possibly one of the catchiest songs of my childhood, I felt a certain responsibility to introduce Anna Cate to this hit. Also, I must admit that Matthew and I, on occasion, will still utter the phrase, "Who ya gonna call?" and the other answers, "Ghostbusters!" After hearing the song AC is now officially "in the loop".
4. Purple People Eater. I really wonder what the writers of this song were thinking when they came up with the lyrics to this song. But, Anna Cate thinks it's funny and I suppose a flying purple beast with one eye that eats people should be considered scary enough to make the Halloween songs list.
5. Ooooo Halloween. This song is not a "hit" by any means, but the children in AC's music class think it is absolutely wonderful. They all thought it was hilarious when they yelled, "Boo!" at the end and scared all the moms. Also, Anna Cate has been singing it since the beginning of September, so I thought it was one that I definitely wanted to remember from this year.
So, these are the songs we have been singing and dancing to throughout the past several weeks. We even have special choreography that accompanies the music and I must admit, we're really pretty good. Happy Halloween!
