Its super stylish, can't place what it reminds me of exactly.

As a lifelong ABBA fan, I have some sequel album suggestions for Brian "Slipping through my fingers"; a soliloquy by Edward Scizorhands "Hasta araña"; 3 minutes and 9 seconds of straight spider puns "Waterloo" as sung by the tortured, vengeful ghost of Napoleon "(Biblically Accurate) Angeleyes" about the eldritch horror that is the ophanim _(🎶one look and you're vaporiiiized~🎶)_ And finally, "if it wasn't for the Knight"; in which a fiendish sorcerer rants about the hero foiling his wicked and sinister schemes All free to use for anyone seeking to make the words second-best Halloween themed ABBA cover album [EDIT] I know it's currently the middle of July but I remembered this existed and came up with more: "The Visitors" where it starts as usual, but becomes increasingly obvious the singer has been abducted by aliens "When I Kissed the Creature" in which a cryptid fanatic takes things a little too far "Me and I" as a dysfunctional duet between Jekyll and Hyde. "Disillusions" sung by the tormented protagonist of an HP Lovecraft novel I'll be back if I come up with anything funnier lmao (also the replies on this are great. good job everyone)

The 2 year old demands it on every car ride although he has a hard time saying vampire song so he kinda just yells “Sapphire!” at me until I put this on. This is not just an October thing either. This is just the peak of music to them. I’m so proud.

Fun fact : In the book Dracula actually wears a moustache similar to Brian's.Because of Bela Lugosi, we associate Dracula as a shaved slick guy, but the original one tried to ressemble Vlad's "emperor" style, so, in a way, this is more accurate than 80% of the adaptations.

Along with his repertoire of being Waluigi, the Master Chief of Halo lore, a Swede promoter, Old Bay fanatic, a dance professional, jort maker, dart user, his own boss, a brand, a boy band, a dessert chef and a world-class rollerblader, Brian is also able to flawlessly pull off a singing vampire.

Brian was too quiet, in secret, he was mastering a whole album and a new band. Amazing.

Can I just point out the amazingness that is the background animations are in time with the music? That's such a small thing, but so many people ignore it and I really appreciate that Brian paid attention to that small but important detail. Also, props to that crazy low bass at the end harmony there, seriously impressive.

they played this at the club during halloween weekend and it was fantastic. thank you for this memory
