Despite many years of working at Suncoast and having to deal with goth kids obsessed with the movie I truly do love The Nightmare Before Christmas. It's a testament to the genius of Tim Burton and Danny Elfman. I've pretty much been a Danny Elfman fangirl since I was sixteen and I love everything the man does musically from his bands to his scoring of soundtracks.

So naturally when I found out they were doing a special edition version of The Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack I preordered that sucker faster than you can say Pumpkin King. The best thing on the soundtrack, I think, are five awesome covers songs.

Cover songs that I link for your right now! My favorite has to be Sally's Song by Fiona Apple. She sings it in such a way that it makes Sally even more heartbreaking. Seriously, I dare you not to be moved with the way she sings the end lyrics, "It's never to become, for I am not the one."

I fucking sniffle now just thinking of it. And yes, I am a sad ass romantic. That's already been made horrifyingly evident so lets just move on and download these totally awesome cover songs, shall we? Oh yeah, and I have to note that even though I love Panic! At The Disco that the Manson cover of This Is Halloween is the best.
