DJ Bobo, “Vampires Are Alive”

By John Q. Sanchez on October 23, 2007 | Share & Save | Link | Print |


This Gothish toe-tapper was Switzerland’s entry in this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. Can you believe it didn’t make it to the finals? But it still could go on to become this century’s “Monster Mash.”

Also seasonal: Shirley Bassey does Pink. One killjoy told me this video looks like it should be a Halloween commercial for Target, but so what?
