But then again, I really like Dead Man's Party.  Was that first Halloween song a Danny Elfman creation as well?

The intro snipped of "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" reminded me of a friend's blog entry from a couple years ago. Great pics:

not the instrumental (afaik), but "This is Halloween" from Nightmare Before Xmas is Elfman.

Dat's da one I meant.  It's got that Haunted Mansion graveyard sound that all of his pieces seem to have.  Speaking of which, that'd be reeeeeally cool to hear.

HM for that 6th Sense clip.  Pretty creepy.  And the kid sounds kind of like my son, so it's extra-spooky.
