The Song: The Freaks Come Out at Night
The Album: Whodini - Greatest Hits
Released 1990
Happy Halloween all you ghosts and ghoulies! I hope you all have something wicked and naughty planned for this weekend. I know I do, and as I’ve said before, Halloween is just a big damn party and I’m the DJ.
This week’s song was harder to choose than I’d thought. My first thought was to go with one of my all time favorites, “Everyday is Halloween” by Ministry. Great song, but not partyin’ enough, I also considered “This is Halloween” from the Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack but axed that for the same reasons. Next up was “Nightmare on My Street” by DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince. While mulling over that I remembered Whodini had a fun party song that would work.
I pulled out the CD and looked at the cover. Yep, that’s sufficiently scary for Halloween! What may be even more frightening is that I actually own that album. Hey, I used to be a working DJ and back in the day “Friends” was the cut.
“The Freaks Come Out at Night” should be a great song to kick of a freaky Halloween weekend. So, all you freaks, get out there tonight and get your freak on!

I always enjoy your SOWs, Keith, and this is no exception. I recently picked up the Grand Theft Auto: Vice City box set, which has Magic Wand on it. Spot on.
