My internet & computer are really fragile right now so I can't watch all these You Tube videos. But my nomination for this thread is the last song off Talking Heads Remain In Light album. It's called "The Overload" and it is the most goth thing you've ever heard in your life, I promise.

Well could you please explain me what's precisely goth about 'Season of the Witch'? I mean I find the music rather sunny and Donovan's lyrics don't seem to portray any sense of gloom or doom... I thought the song was about psychedelic paranoia but I honestly have no idea. Could be about anything. Am I getting the Goth concept wrong?
― Moka, Monday, 15 June 2009 08:25 (sixteen years ago)
I don't think "Season of the Witch" is sunny. Listen to that spidery riff! And paranoia is certainly fair topical game for Goth territory. I don't think there ever was a hard n' fast Goth concept, but I've always thought it fits perfectly. Plus, IT'S GOT THE WORD WITCH IN THE TITLE!!!!
