Halloween Playlist | prettylittlewriter


With Halloween fast approaching, I have been listening to A LOT of Halloween music. 
From Michael Jackson to the Backstreet Boys, these songs always get me in the Halloween spirit! 

These are my top five songs for the holiday!

5. This is Halloween - Nightmare Before Christmas


Let's face it, we all know there had to be a Disney song in here, it is me after all. This song completely describes Halloween to a T, and listening to this track always get me in the Halloween spirit. 

4. Feed My Frankenstein - Alice Cooper


There are a lot of Alice Cooper songs that are great for Halloween, but as this one is about a particular monster, and relating to the monster within that we 'feed' (especially at Halloween) it is perfect for this time of year. 
I love how old school it sounds too!

3. Somebody's Watching Me - Rockwell


This song is so creep-tastic! I find this an incredibly fun song to sing and dance to, and really makes me want to party any time I hear it! I also love how it mentions the classic Hitchcock movie, Psycho.

2. Everybody - Backstreet Boys


The video to this song just screams Halloween. It starts out like a horror movie, with the Backstreet Boys turning into Vampires, Werewolves, the Phantom of the Opera, Mummies and Lizard men. It is such a fun video to watch, and I just love the beat. It makes me want to dance!

1. Thriller - Michael Jackson


Now this is the epitome of Halloween music. This classic MJ song is creepy yet fun, it can get anyone up on the dancefloor at a party. The video always used to creep me out, the zombies were pretty scary! With the spooky narrator and MJ's fantastic voice, this song is always at the top of my list for Halloween songs!

Below is my Spotify Halloween playlist if anyone is interested in seeing what else I like to listen to at this time of year!

Top 5 Tuesdays | Disney Songs | prettylittlewriter

If you're a regular reader of my blog, or you know me IRL, you will know how much I love Disney. It is basically my life; my true love. 
One thing I love the most about Disney movies is the soundtracks.

So for this week's Top 5 Tuesday I thought I'd share with you my favourite Disney songs.

1. Hercules - I Won't Say I'm in Love


This is my all time favourite Disney song, EVER. I love this song so much because it depicts my own feelings about love and heartbreak. I never like to admit when I like someone, even more so when I'm in love with someone. So Meg's beautiful solo truly understands my own thoughts.

2. Hercules - Go the Distance


Yes, it's from Hercules again. I think I love the songs more than I love the movie, but not by much! This song is incredibly beautiful and poetic. It really makes you think about your own life and how the lyrics apply to you. Roger Bart has an amazing voice and truly makes you care for Hercules and his struggle.

3. Mulan - I'll Make a Man Out of You


This is such a sassy song in my opinion. It is one of the funniest Disney songs there is, especially when the character of Ling sings 'boy was I a fool in school for cutting gym.'
Whenever I hear thing song it makes me want to watch the movie.

4. Lion King 2 - Love Will Find a Way


Bringing out my romantic side, this song truly gives me hope for love. It's all about how when you love someone, you can overcome any obstacle together. This is also my favourite of the Lion King movies, I prefer it to the first (don't hate me).

5. Frozen - In Summer


It has been very difficult choosing a song from Frozen as my favourite, but my love for Olaf has pushed me in this direction. In Summer is such a fun song and Josh Gadd's voice is amazing. My favourite line has to be 'Winter's a good time to stay in and cuddle, but put me in summer and I'll be a .... happy snowman!'

I also have another song I want to add in here, and as it isn't a Disney song so it doesn't count towards the top 5 (I'm cheating I know ^_^).

This is my Idea from The Swan Princess.


I know all the words and love singing to this! It is such a fun song and absolutely hilarious; from 'If you make me kiss her hand again I swear I'm gonna be sick' to the beautiful chorus between Odette and Derek 'Til now I never knew, it is you I've been dreaming of'. It is such an amazing movie and I could watch it over and over again.

Okay so it was really hard to pick a top 5 out of all the fabulous Disney songs out there, but there we have it. 

What are your favourite Disney songs? :)
