songs that start like that
"like that" meaning they start with a long, droning synth/guitar, before getting into the actual song. even better if it's just one note/chord.
Songs whose lyrics mention the name of an album that appears later in the band's discography
For example, XTC's Ballet For A Rainy Day (from their 1986 album Skylarking) features the lyrics "Orange and lemon raincoats roll and tumble together". XTC's next album would be Oranges and Lemons (1989), and its song Chalkhills and Children has the lyric "While some nonsuch net holds me aloft", giving the name of their next album Nonsuch (1993). Then She Appeared from Nonsuch has "Then she appeared / Apple Venus on a half-open shell", providing the namesake of their Apple Venus albums. The last example is a bit of a low-hanging fruit, as the line "Telephone line, give me some time" only has a common word which is used for ELO's 1981 album Time.
Halloween classics with spooky titles that are actually about serious topics
Songs describing an anonymous (but heavily described) woman
Must be about a woman. Cannot assign a name or moniker to the woman who is the subject of the song, but must give great detail about her appearance, personal life, personality, etc.
The only exception to these rules is the very last song on the playlist, which is "I'm Every Woman - Chaka Khan" in which we find out who the woman is (Chaka Khan obviously).
EDIT: This is my first post here, and I'm loving your suggestions! You, my friends, are all proper gentlemen and scholars.
Non-horror songs changed by the horror genre
Includes movies, games, TV shows, etc. Not necessarily any song that plays in a horror thing, but I'm not being super strict lol
