Gregorian

Sooooo, I just found this music group that covers popular songs as Gregorian chants.

I'm in love.

I think some samples are in order.












I just bought a few of their songs from iTunes. Check 'em out!

Ah-HAH!--Llewellyn and Juliana's "Ghost"

Remember that song I, well, just mentioned? XD Well, I did some more searching, and I found out who sings it!

It's sung by musicians Lewellyn and Juliana. Here's their website, and here's the album the song is from. It's track 5, "Ghost."

With that information, I searched again for the music video... and found it! :-D

Great song, no? :-D I really love the new perspective on troubled spirits this song gives--they don't deserve fear, but sympathy.

"They Call Her The Ghost"

Once upon a time I found this GREAT music video on YouTube... and now I can't find it!

I remember the song, but I don't know who sang it and in fact searching for the lyrics only turned up two results on Google.

Here they are copied and pasted from another site:

I often hear footsteps walking my stairs
They stop at the top, I look no one's there
The Ghost

They say she had children, a baby who died
A mother so helpless, reliving that night
Again and again
Imagine her pain

You say this house is haunted
I say who's scared the most
She's the one living this nightmare
They call her the Ghost

She married in summertime, a young bride and groom
The happiest days of their lives were spent in this home
And now where the nursery stood at the top of the stairs
you can sometimes hear crying and know she's there

I often hear footsteps walking my stairs
They stop at the top, I look no one's there

This is a FANTASTIC and beautiful song--if you have a link to the music video, please share it with me!

Nox Arcana

Are you a fan of creepy sound effects?

Then I dearly hope you've heard of Nox Arcana. If not, well, you're hearing of them now!

Remember Joseph Vargo? Well, this is his musical project, though it's actually a mix of music and sound effects--eerie music and creepy sound effects. Nox Arcana (loose latin translation: "Mysteries of the Night") is the result of a partnership between Vargo and William Piotrowski, two musicians who have created something amazing. Get music previews on their website! The music is available for download on Amazon and iTunes as well.
