Screamin Jay Hawkins ~ I Put A Spell On You.

I first heard the Marilyn Manson version of this song, when I found out it was a remake I looked for the original. I thought Manson did a good job with the song, but nothing can come close to the original. Screamin Jay Hawkins is probably the inventor of shock rock. He would come out of a coffin before his shows, and had a lot of voodoo themed props included into his shows. If you think back to how people where back in the day, I bet they really thought this strange black man was infecting their minds with his black magic. If you consider the number of kids Screamin Jay Hawkins had, he may have been very well putting a spell on the young girls of the world.
Anyway, this gets my pick for number one Halloween song, put it on your playlist son.
