She asked me name my foe then. I said the need within some men to fight and kill their brothers without thought of Love or God. Ken Hensley

I got one! I got one. Well two.


Just in time for Halloween.

“They’re coming to take me away”

And

“The Monster Mash”
G-d bless America. G-d bless us all                                 

Adopt a puppy or kitty from your local shelter
Or an older dog or cat. They're true love❤️

Robert Pickett recorded "Monster Mash" in 1962 with, among others, Gary S. Paxton ("Alley Oop") and Leon Russell. There was a Christmas themed "Monsters' Holiday" also released in 1962. Whether it or "Transylvania Twist" charted, I don't know. Novelty records like this series and artists like Weird Al are too rare nowadays, IMO.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Monsters' Holiday hit #30 in 1962; Transylvania Twist did not reach the charts (not sure if it was released as a single).

Technically they had a follow up minor hit that pretty much sucked, so for all intents and purposes, they were a one hit wonder.

Peace On Earth. Barring that, can I have my neutron bombs now?

I was thinking about seeing if Billy Jack is on Prime or something.

I think Youtube has changed. My adblocker/malware shows stuff then blanks it, then it shows, then blanks. It does it on other sites too.  :shrug:

I have found if I go to YouTube and use their search bar and then right click on the one I want and copy link location it gives me the accurate code for here. Screenshot.



Right click and copy link location on the first one gives me this:

Remove the s.

@skeeter

Just highlight and cut the url of the video in the address bar , remove the S and paste in the postng area.

You have the mobile url in your post which wont work.
