The Spookiest Song(s), in my opinion are.....(drum roll, please.....)

"Fall into Sleep" Mudvayne & "Like You" Evanescence

"Fall into Sleep" displays one of the most eeire themes ever written in a recent song and it makes no bones about what it is talking about: the devestation left behind in Hurricane Katrina's wake. In the line, "Dreams of earthquakes/
Dreams of hurricanes/Dreams of pouring rain/Dreams of tidal waves...to wash us all away/Dreams of guns blazed/Dreams of fire rage/Dreams of swollen graves/Dreams of hollow pain/All gone...." it clearly gives a haunting description of the storm as it was baring down on the Gulf Coast. In the next verse, Katrina's aftermath is made apparent, possibly said from the words of the New Orleans natives: "Dreams of mourning grief/Dreams of disbelief/
Dreams of tragedy/Dreams of our disease...to take us all away/Dreams of fidelity/Dreams of inner peace/Dreams of loyalty/Dreams of unity/All gone....../" From the first moment that I heard this song, a sudden chill rushed through me. I had no idea what the true meaning behind this song's depressing mood or the words spoken. However, once I read the words, everything became clear to me. After realizing this song was actually a tribute of sorts to the Gulf Coast region, the chills in my spine were amplified after I had heard this darkly beautiful song for a second time.

"Like You", like "Fall into Sleep" speaks on the theme of death. And, like the Mudvanye song, "Like You" is also based on a real-life event, which happened to the lead singer of Evanescence, Amy Lee, when she was just a child.

Well, sorry I don’t have much more to say, but….I promise that I will tell you a little more about myself soon! Until next time, fair the well....
