Tuneful Tuesday with the Melodicka Brothers

The annual Halloween celebration here at Terror Titans got brought to a screeching halt by the horror show that is real life. So, instead we're going to be sharing some of the stuff we had INTENDED to post during the second half of October in 2024 on a sporadic basis throughout the coming year... starting now!

We're starting things with a surpringly good cover by the Melodika Brothers. It's not surprising that they once again have delivered something clever and well-conceived... no, what's surprising is how effective Ricky Martin's famous party anthem "Living La Vida Loca" translates into the horror genre! I mean, it's been there the whole time, but I've just never noticed!

And the video--which tells the tale of a ghost hunt--is excellent!

Tuneful Tuesday with Violet & the Melodicka Bros

The Melodicka Bros. and Violet Orlandi return again for this year's 31 Nights of Halloween with cover tunes and videos that turn pop classics into horror film tributes! 

 

First up, we have "Stayin' Alive" serving as the backdrop for a zombie saga on the scale of "Dawn of the Dead" or "Night of the Living Dead"!

Stayin' Alive (2021)

Extra Tuneful Tuesday with the Melodicka Bros and Violet Orlandi

The very talented singer Violet Orlandi teamed up with the very creative Melodicka Bros. for a spectacular cover of one of the spookiest pop songs ever written. The video that they made to go with it is even spookier, and it's perfect for this last tuneful Tuesday of these 31 Nights of Halloween.

Tuneful Tuesday: Every Breath You Take

Finally! Someone has recorded a version of "Every Breath You Take" that fully captures the essence of the song. Play it, and you'll see why it belongs here at Terror Titans!
