Thirsty & Ghost of John

Songs(s): Thirsty & Ghost of John

Artist: The Hound + The Fox

Two dramatic and spooky songs for this week leading into Halloween!!!

Thirsty is an original tune from husband and wife duo The Hound + The Fox for the elusive Count Dracula and his mortal lover. I really don't know much about the original tale of Dracula and his story/origins but this haunting, pleading song of love and lust seem fitting for what I (think) I know about the relationship between Vampires and humans...yes, my days in the Twilight fandom-past strikes again! 😳😂  

Have you ever been surrounded

by water

but there's not a drop to drink?

Have you even had your heart break?

and now imagine

with a heart that doesn't beat

Are you thirsty yet?

Are you thirsty yet?

Do you thirst me yet?

Have you ever wished for morning

while you were mourning

but the night just doesn't quit?

Will you ever grant me mercy?

Will you immerse me

in the depth of your abyss

Are you thirsty yet?

Are you thirsty yet?

Do you thirst me yet?

You've got me knees weak, falling for you

Woeful how I adore you

just one taste I'll wake you from this dream

You make me thirsty

You make me thirsty

And I come alive when I'm by your side

Now that you are mine I'd lose it all for you

I'd atone your sins if you'd only let me in

Could our end begin with death anew

Have you ever been surrounded

by water

but there's not a drop to drink?

You've got me knees weak, falling for you

Woeful how I adore you

just one taste I'll wake you from this dream

You've got me hungry, craving for you

Vengeful 'til death I swore you

just one taste to give you what you need

You make me thirsty

You make me thirsty

Ghost of John is an incredibly eerie and original take on what is apparently an old American Folk song! These guys create a truly haunting and spooky arrangement that is perfectly Halloween-approved and belongs on any and every Halloween playlist! 👻

Long white bones with the skin all gone

Oooh, Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh

Wouldn't it be chilly with no skin on, no skin on?
