Halloween – EerieVision: Day 7

2 Comments

Due to thieves that stole copper cables, we had no electricity yesterday for 19 hours and so we could not do day 6. We incorporated the song for day six into the post for day 7.

Happy Halloween from all at ESC Covers! The big day is finally here, and today with have a bumper edition of Eurovision-related bone-chilling tunes for you.

So, if you’re holding a party tonight, or just want to get into the spirit before watching a marathon of horror movies, the following classics are ghoulishly good!

We start off with Germany’s Lord of the Lost with Blood & Glitter, back from the 2023 contest.

Now, lets take a delve into another National Final performance from Norway’s Melodi Grand Prix. It’s EMMY with Witch Woods!

Do angry, shouty men, dressed in PVC scare you? You’re in luck. Back from the 2019 contest, Iceland’s Hatari with Hatrið mun sigra are next in our spooky selection.

Slowing the pace down quite a bit, we now have a haunting ballad from Mørland & Debrah Scarlett – Norway’s entry in the 2015. Here they are with A Monster Like Me.

And finally, how could we bring you a selection of creepy Eurovision tunes without including the masters of rock?! You’d better start praying or they’ll eat you (or something). All hail Lordi with Hard Rock Hallelujah!

Let us know in the comments which your favourite of these songs is!

We’re very nearly at Halloween, and that means we have another creepy Eurovision classic for you.

Today, we’re not off to Transylvania, but instead, Switzerland – the host country of the upcoming 2025 Eurovision Song Contest.

But who is our chosen act of the day?

Clue 1: They were born on 5th January 1968.

Clue 2: Their real name is Peter René Baumann.

Clue 3: They’ve had 27 chart hits in Germany and Switzerland.

If you’re a fan of Dracula, Nosferatu, Edward Cullen, or or even Count von Count from Sesame Street, this one’s for you. Buffy would not approve, though. Grab yourself a nice steak to eat – it’s DJ BoBo with Vampires are Alive from the 2007 Contest!

Join us again tomorrow for the penultimate day of EevieVision Spook Contest!

Halloween, Melodi Grand Prix 2024

EerieVision: Day 4

Leave a comment

Good evening guys and ghouls! We continue our collection of creepy Eurovision-related music with Day 4 of the EerieVision Spook Contest.

This next song may have passed you by if you don’t watch the National Final selection shows. Many countries each year let their public decide which song will be chosen to represent them at Eurovision, and sadly this means that some great songs don’t make their way onto the global Eurovision stage. Here is one of those acts.

Gothminister are a Norwegian gothic metal band that formed way back in 1999. The following song ‘We Come Alive’ appeared in Norway’s Melodi Grand Prix this year. Gåte were the eventual winner, but we would have loved to have seen this appear on stage in Malmö!

You can find out more about the band on their social media channels, plus check out the offical music video of the song below!
