Okay, was been mentioned briefly in the music topic we had going, but I wanted to start a thread about this. I know many fans of Halloween (and this site) enjoy The Nightmare Before Christmas. So, have you picked up the "Nightmare Revisited" CD yet?
"The album features unique, ALL NEW RECORDINGS on the eccentric cult classic soundtrack, covered by a diverse group of artists across different music genres."
Some of these covers stick close to the original song, while others are so thoroughly remixed and expanded to epic levels, you have to listen closely to recognize which song you're listening to. There are some really unique takes on the songs, in many styles of music.
Check out the track list. I've been known to listen to many of these artists on their own. So... put them together on a single album, doing Nightmare songs, and you have some music that is in heavy rotation in the ZP patch.
1. "Overture" by DeVotchKa
2. "Opening" by Danny Elfman
3. "This Is Halloween" by Marilyn Manson
4. "Jack's Lament" by The All-American Rejects

6. "What's This?" by Flyleaf
7. "Town Meeting Song" by The Polyphonic Spree
8. "Jack and Sally Montage" by The Vitamin String Quartet
