#SongoftheDay C'est l'halloween (Matt Maxwell)
C'est l'halloween! So I bring you a song I grew up with. I figured it existed forever, but turns out it was only written in 1981. So I guess it was actually a new song when I learned it.
Another childhood Halloween memory:
My class was scheduled to attend an outdoor learning sleep-away camp, which had a reputation for being the best camp ever, and we felt very lucky that we were going... except we were booked in for late October... which meant we'd be there for Halloween!
There was a costume party, and I think we trick-or-treated by finding camp counsellors who'd installed themselves in the woods, but imagine the candy we missed out on! All these years later, I mourn the possibilities.
I dressed as a skunk, because I loved skunks--owing to the film Bach et Bottine, about a young girl who goes to live with her uncle (the plot of every French film ever made) and brings along a whole menagerie, including a skunk. I made the tail by bending a coat hanger, stretching one leg of a pair of black stockings over it, and sewing on a strip of white fabric.
In my house, we made all our costumes by hand. Nothing was store-bought.
If you're wondering how you can support me in bringing you songs and visits every day, the easiest thing you can do is tell your friends about the site. Tell anyone you know--particularly people who are isolated and enjoy music.
Readers of adult fiction can also buy my books or check them out from your local library. Supporting my AudioErotica endeavour on Patreon would also help me hugely!
I'm also an Amazon Influencer, so hopefully I can make a little pocket change when you buy stuff by clicking through my affiliate links.
But you don't HAVE to do any of that. I'm very happy to get a daily visit from you, so just keep coming back.
Oh, and I also recommend hitting the "Subscribe" button at the top of the page so you won't miss a song!
See you tomorrow!
