Okay, now for some fun. Can the folks here help me pick some good mall music? I have a small Bluetooth speaker that will be in the mall map display and it will play songs and an occasional mall announcement. And of course a scream or two. So to that end I need some song suggestions that would either work in the mall, think elevator music, or something more zombie appropriate like Helter Skelter.. Thanks for the help. Moe |

Every mall & every elevator has played The Girl from Ipanema at one time or another: YouTube link |

The DEVO disc is called E-Z Listening Disc and is available for $10 USD on Amazon. I see it is also on YouTube. |

If you have a theater, video store or electronics store, you could set up a little player with a slasher flic or a Sci-Fi film or even a zombie video. |

I'll suggest several rockabilly / horror billy: My two favorite songs
The Coffin Nails …… " the dead don't get older"
Spook and the Ghouls ….."demon barber of Fleet Street" A few more: The Krewmen….."swamp club ball"
Restless….."black Kane"
Southern Culture on the Skids…. "strangest ways"
The Space Cadets….."did he jump, or was he pushed"
Lou ci fer ….."bad, vile, evil, and mean"
Hola Ghost….." chupacabra"
Mad Jack and the Hatters….."two woman ride"
Koffin Rockers….."zombie Girl" Many of these songs have videos on YouTube….
There are hundreds of bands with this style of zombie or horror theme. These aren't even a scratch in the surface of what's around. I've been painting and gaming with this music….the guys like it….and it's a nice break from classic rock etc.
Also Instrumental surf horror music too. The Ghastly Ones

Stepman 3: "Bicycle"?? Why?? and which Kinks song do you mean. I like three of your choices. Bad Moon Rising, Don't Fear The Reaper, and Gimme Shelter. |

Peter Frampton does an awesome version of Stepman3's above suggestion for "Blackhole Sun" by Sound Garden. |

Sorry "Drift Away" by the Kinks…
"Bicycle" because I can just picture some guy peddling his ass off to get away from a herd of zombies. More "Shawn of the Dead" vibe to it but I would think its comical… |

If shops in US are like those in UK. Remember that from November onwards have to play Christmas music. That could even be the cause of outbreak, people driven mad by one to many times hearing "I wish it could be Christmas every day" |

Besides the music, you could also download a nice pic from the "Dawn of the Dead" game, shrink it and hang it on a wall. Google and boardgamegeek have lots of pics. |

Make an endless loop of the mall music from Dawn of the Dead (2:33:00 onward) and play nothing but that. Over and over and over and over… |
