For as long as I can remember, this ghost has lived under my stereo furniture. Every October it was displayed under the stereo cabinet in my parent's house, and then in my own apartment after I inherited said stereo cabinet. It has lived under these particular stereo shelves since I made them the home to my stereo equipment in 1999. Why do I mention this? Well, because it has heard every song I've played during October for at least the past 25 years. Also, by posting this picture, I'm baiting my mom to leave a comment.
The Cure - "Fear Of Ghosts" (mp3)
Today's monday morning (err, evening) b-side was originally on The Cure's 1989 single "Lovesong." It is now available on the box set Join The Dots: B-Sides & Rarities, 1978-2001. It suffers from the same fate a lot of the band's Disintegration era songs do in that it's about two minutes too long. But it's still a good tune, and has sufficiently creepy lyrics for the Halloween season.
