Songs for a Zombie Party

Cafe Society

My friend is having a zombie party and she is looking for songs to play. Any suggestions that we haven’t thought of already? Here is our list so far:

Johnathan Coulton, Re:your brain
Horrorpops, Walk like a zombie
Roky Erickson and the Aliens, I walked with the Zombie
Nudist Colony of the Dead
Return of the Loving Dead - Nekromantix
The Priscillas - All My Friends Are Zombies
Koffin Kats - Graveyard Tree
Creature Feature - The Greatest Show Unearthed
Creature Feature - Aim for the head
Voodoo Church - Zombie A go go
Gorillaz - Hip Albatross
Michael Jackson - thriller
zombie girl - The darkness
White Zombie - living dead girl
The Used - wake the dead
Oingo Boingo - Dead Man’s Party
Cranberries - Zombie
Zombies!Organize! - Zombie Manifesto
Kingston Trio - Zombie Jaboree
Designer Drugs - zombies!
Zach Selwin - Were comin’ to kill ya
Sek - living dead beats
Acid bath - pagan love song
Acid Bath - new corpse
Zombina and the Skeletones - nobody likes you when you’re dead
Wednesday 13 - I walked with a zombie
Murderdolls - She Was a Teenage Zombie
Zombie Zombie - Driving This Road Until Death Set You Free
This World - Christian Olde Wolbers
The Limousines - Internet killed the video star
Family Force 5 - Wake the Dead
L7 - Pretend We’re Dead
Alien Sex Fiend - Now I’m Feeling Zombified

Having “zombies” in the name of the band doesn’t qualify a song for the list, so The Zombies and The Dead Milkmen are out (the DM do not have any zombie songs. Weird!) The song must evoke zombies.

Thanks!

How about the theme from one of the Reanimator movies, Move Your Dead Bones

3

I’m thinking Don’t Stop Me Now - Queen should be in there then.

4

All You Zombies by The Hooters.

5

Wuthering Heights :smiley:

There’s Zombie Zoo by Tom Petty.

How about Frankenstein, by the Edgar Winter Group. He’s basically a zombie, isn’t he?

8

I think the Harry Belafonte version of Zombie Jamborie is better than the Kingston Trio’s version.

These aren’t specifically zombie related, but may add to the atmosphere:

Season of the Witch: Donovan
Monster Mash: Boris Karloff
Werewolves of London: Warren Zevon
Theme from The Walking Dead
Day of The Dead theme
Dawn of the Dead theme

Don’t forget this one …

Three more serious entries:

Odds - Eat My Brain

The Headstones - Cemetary (“Went down to the cemetary lookin’ for love. Got there and my baby was buried; I had to dig her up.”)

They Might Be Giants - Til My Head Falls Off

Also, I much prefer Belafonte’s or Rockapella’s version of “Zombie Jamboree”. The Kingston Trio are kinda square.

whodini “magic’s wand”

This song always makes me think of Haitian zombies.

12

Zombie Boy by the Magnetic Fields.

13

Voltaire - Zombie Prostitute and Reggae Mortis
Lordi - Night of the Loving Dead

14

No mention of Zombie on your lawn? The music video for the game Plants vs. Zombies is great. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0N1_0SUGlDQ

*Well, it’s all right now.
I’ve learned my lesson well.
You see you can’t eat everyone
So you’ve got to eat yourself. *

“Zombie Party” by Rick “Brainz” Nelson

16

The Misfits have a few:

“Astro Zombie”
“Braineaters”
“Ghouls Night Out”
“Night of the Living Dead”

17

You could also include “She’s Not There” and/or “Time of the Season” and see if anyone gets the joke.

18

And, of course, Brains! (It’s more about the evil meteor, but he does say he’ll eat their brains 'til they’re zombified.)

See post #9 :wink:

There’s always this classic
