2. "War Pigs" - Ozzy Osbourne
One good song for Halloween
One of the greatest Halloween songs is sung by the prince of darkness himself, Ozzy Osbourne together with the Black Sabbath band. The song can be found in one of the Black Sabbath's album Paranoid and in Ozzy Osbourne's compilation, The Ozzman Cometh. It's basically an anti-war song but you have to agree with me that this song, with its beat and rhythm, is one of the best Halloween party songs.
