Always interesting to hear how songs evolve. This stripped down demo version is great too... the forward vocals, acoustic guitar, and sparse drums create quite a different atmosphere.
Great, laid back sound. I like how the tambourine carries the song through, and that staccato violin sound. And yes, amazing guitar solo from Mr. Samford.
“Bela Lugosi's Dead” recorded and mixed on 10/14/23 and 10/15/23, for October’s 30 Day Songs challenge (30daysongs.com).
“Bela Lugosi's Dead” written by Ash/Haskins/J/Murphy, originally by Bauhaus.
Released on October 20, 2023. Happy 141st…
A world of yes. I too encountered this song in high school -- somebody had the CD reissue of the 7 inch and passed it around. I made a tape copy, as one did in those days, and listened to it until I Was Goth.
from the Poisonous EP
look at that face in the mirror
same one you had before
harder to recognize these days
time has not been kind
still a ways to go
better hurry up
don’t let it slip away
ok is not enough
you gotta take a chance…

This is quite spectacular. You took the song someplace different and Andy is a rock star, but we all already knew that.

This is a great track.
