NEW WAVE Halloween

It was HALLOWEEN 2007 when I mentioned here in my blog this 1998 compilation CD entitled "Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Halloween" and so It's about time to feature the CD itself here on my little blog "The Doctor Is In" for MY HALLOWEEN WEEK 2009 Special. So how did the term HALLOWEEN evolved? Halloween which is originally spelled Hallowe’en is shortened from All Hallows' Even – e'en which is a shortening of even, which is a shortening of evening. This is ultimately derived from the Old English "Eallra Hālgena ǣfen".It has It's roots in the Celtic festival of Samhain and the Christian holy day of All Saints Day. Here in MANILA It's most associated with the EVE of UNDAS(All Saints' Day), which is November 1st which is then followed by "All Souls Day" which is November 2nd. YUP!! HALLOWEEN is on the EVE of October 31st.


It was 2001 when I purchased this CD on the now Defunct TOWER RECORDS at MAKATI. Originally released back in 1998 by Rhino/Wea, this 15-track collection of basically HALLOWEEN MUSIC spans on the NEW WAVE GENRE and It's SUB-GENRES. It brings about the danceable and noisy music that's very fit for the occasion. My favorite in this compilation would be OINGO BOINGO's "Dead Man's Party". Hmmmp!! The song title speaks for itself. He He He!! Some dark and eerie music in the line-up like THE RAMONES "Pet Sematary", B-52's' "Devil in My Car" and of course who wouldn't forget the SIX SONGS in the compilation with the same title "HALLOWEEN". Well, we also have THE DEAD KENNEDYS in the CD which I featured here on my blog before. So do we hear goblins, witches, and any of those creatures of the dark? Naaah!! PINOY are just well-known to be very superstitious. This is indeed a great compilation of Halloween Party music that would keep you awake all night long. Ha Ha Ha!! I uploaded the whole CD but due to lack of time I wasn't able to indicate the song titles and the artists on each music file. The TRACKLIST is already here so It would at least help you okay. So guys just ENJOY THE MUZIC!! We JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH right?
