5. Ozzy Osbourne - Bark At The Moon
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44DqUFS2W3Q 80s cheesiness is never amiss at a party, especially one held on the most theatrical and over the top night of the year, and here heavy metal's prince of darkness raises his feathered head to provide such cheese. Though he has been at the helm of many much more fitting songs based on the occult and other spine tingling subject matter, both whilst fronting Black Sabbath and in his own solo efforts, this blast of 80s hair metal is a good break from the grimness and sinister subjects of the last few tracks. Coupling driving guitar riffs and shredding solos with Ozzy's signature nasal snarl, as well as lyrics telling the tale of a man-beast terrorizing a small village, this throwback gem will have your ghouls strumming their air guitars in no time.
