Morse Geordie Baritone EC and me singing
I wrote Halloween Song in 1994, but it had a bit more to the melody, and an additional verse that I've decided to omit.
When I wrote it, I was using a Chinese pentatonic scale as a basis (something new to me), so that's kind of how a tune given in the key of A minor has ended up beginning with a B minor chord moving to a C-sharp minor chord.
So now that I've changed things so that it's more of a simple tune but kind of odd, I've been trying to figure out how to explain it. I guess I'd just say there's some modulation. The key of B minor moves to the key of A minor.
The words:
Hello, it's Halloween
Dress for the scene
Eat pumpkin pie
If you can fly, grab a broom
We'll go hopping
From tomb to tomb
(Instrumental verse)
Who are you? Nobody knows
Gliding wherever the
Wind of the cemetery blows
