The Skeleton Dance - Aurelio Voltaire - Official Lyric Video

[@TheLairofVoltaire]

Halloween time is here!!! Please share The Skeleton Dance with a spooky friend and add to your Halloween playlist!!! It's the Halloweeniest of all of my Halloween songs!!!!!

[@jamesirvin784]

So I’m gonna need a tutorial on how to do the dance, that way your vision isn’t being disrespected. Mainly the “grab, grab, grab a bat”

[@asantaimeep]

Voltaire was my childhood. The fact that he's still performing is EVERYTHING.

[@anastasiaw594]

Me and my besties chilling to this song on Samhain in the middle of the night knowing next morning we have classes:

[@fringeofmadness]

Instant classic, I need this video on a projector in my front yard on repeat for the whole month and that's my only decoration. I'm going to learn this dance before the next show I come to and light it up

[@tudorpopescu7191]

I've had a really severe chronic lumbago episode today that got me in ER for half a day, and I'm still pretty messed up, pain is still there...but the fact that I can hear my favorite singers smooth and melodic voice in a new album is making me very happy and keeps my mind off of the pain. Thank you once again Voltaire, for being an amazing singer, a fashionable vampire, and overall a kind and awesome guy.

[@TheLairofVoltaire]

I hope you're feeling better soon!

[@tudorpopescu7191]

@@TheLairofVoltaire The fact that you took time to respond to my comment, meant a whole lot to me, and the kind thoughtful gesture took some of the pain away. Thank you Voltaire, looking forward to more fresh and unique goodies from you. I hope you will be well, take care :D.

[@teresasingh8301]

Get well soon! Take it slow- Remember even a paper cut takes awhile to heal! 😊

[@tudorpopescu7191]

@@teresasingh8301 Thank you for your kind words and concern, stay safe and healthy as well ❤

[@MitchQuadrupleTree]

Hope you feel better soon.

[@Wikloe]

More Voltaire for spooky season? Truly is the most wonderful time of the year. Loving these new songs!

[@sharoncounce8907]

You are right .

[@SnowWhite-ov9of]

The skeleton puns are bone-chilling! This is the perfect song for every Halloween party 🥰🖤💀

[@funkyg77]

This really should feature in an animation film like Hotel Transylvania or Addams Family if they visited New Orleans as perfect for a dancing scene :)

[@KitsawZwastik]

YES YES YES THANK YOU FOR DOING IT LETSGOOOOOOO

[@janetlieb2507]

Tasty bone!Awesome!❤❤

[@josefernandez4406]

The spooky jazzy rhythm and boney sounds still makes me dance Voltaire. 🤘🤘🎶🪦🧡🖤

[@annaskywolffe7078]

I clicked this expecting a different song and stayed because this is a jam. another great song from you Voltaire!

[@fratolcay7156]

So fun to sing along. Fantastic album and really good song. Voltaire and Halloween match together so well.

[@itwasagoodideaatthetime7980]

This album just keeps getting better & better. 🖤💜💀🦇💀💜🖤

[@lynndavis930]

AMAZING! I love it, you are so talented and creative! This song would even be great for children. I can visualize a bunch of kids singing this song and even dancing around, it has such a lively sound to it!

[@MitchQuadrupleTree]

This song is absolutely going onto my Halloween playlist.

[@TuberculosisRose]

One of my favorite Voltaire songs is Cannibal Buffet and this feels like a spiritual successor to that. Like all the puns that didn't fit in that song were being saved for this one lol

[@Agothygoth]

So when the song first started I immediately start smiling. THIS IS THE HALLOWEEN AND JUST THE MUSIC IN GENERAL THAT I WANTED TO HEAR!! Bravo!!

[@kannivalkxrpse]

I ADORE YOU VOLTAIRE, YOU'RE THE BEST 😭😭🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@AnaxErik4ever]

What a fun song. Reminds me of Land if the Dead and also of “Mr Bones”.

[@sinister.dreams]

This song will forever be my top one Halloween banger. I can't not dance along 💃🎃

[@fligy39]

Is it weird that I've been listening to very album since "The Devil's Bris" came out, read a good chunk of your books, have drawings I use to make of Deady the Teddy when I was a kid, even have passion projects I've wanted to commission music for and only today have I decided to comment on one of your videos? Maybe. I just hope you realize how much you've helped a random Portuguese kid you never knew even existed, who had no friends and never really planned to live past 30, helping him to grow into an adult who moved to Estonia and chases his artsy, horror-filled passion despite protest from family and strangers. 🦇Thank you.💀 Here's hoping one day I get the chance to go through with that commission I mentioned! Cheers, Aurelio! Keep being you: it's what you've taught me.

[@TheLairofVoltaire]

Thanks for sticking around! Good luck with your spooky passions!

[@fligy39]

@@TheLairofVoltaire Here's hoping one day I can go to one of your shows, my friend. It means a lot, you taking the time to answer my message here (as cringy as it may be hehe).

[@bowlerhatfilmsandreviews2778]

Was looking over my Halloween playlist several days ago (50% of which is allready your stuff) and thinking "how do i make it a bit longer?" and lo and behold immediatly after my spotify notifications reveal the glorious sight of a new Halloween album from the king of Halloween

[@darktwistedwitch]

YEEEEESSSSSS!!!! MY FAVE SONG FROM THE ALBUM!! AND YOU POSTED LYRICS FOR IT!! AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!! Yaaaaaaay! Also sorry to miss the live premiere for this! But still love this song!!

[@Chrisdead27]

This Halloween song is every day to a year. This is humorous and serious to dance with dead.

[@jessicaherrera5490]

Love this song Happy Halloween Voltaire 🎃

[@c_a_k_e09]

Excelente como sempre Voltaire!! Obrigado por essa música incrível!!! FELIZ HALLOWEEN PRA TODOS!!!

[@TheRavenLord1]

Now this was rather humorous tune, and I won’t fib I rather liked the skeleton dance moves. Much love and loving the album thus far.

[@Racc00nKing]

I've really been struggling with my mental health recently, but this new album has really brought my mood up. Thank you Voltaire, I love your music sm! 🖤

[@Mothyboi]

Yeah! Finally a lyric video Gosh! Every song on the last Halloween party album has been amazing Literally my fav

[@henrycabot3433]

This whole album is incredible. Can't stop listening to it! All the songs are great in their own ways. I will be carrying the spookiness well into the Christmas season.

[@davidalangay1186]

Anyone who dislikes this song will have a bone to pick with me. 😃

[@Ilposeidonll]

We need a new Tim Burton movie with Voltaire feature! This is such a banger!

[@itwasagoodideaatthetime7980]

Once again Voltaire over exceeded my expectations with this video. Salute Sir! 🥂💀

[@frillydress]

Oooh! I absolutely love this! The saxophone is a nice touch :)

[@reveriemephisto1995]

I listen to a lot of heavy metal bands that identify as or could be seen as goth, but this feel of music from a fellow goth is quite refreshing. This feels like some good old-fashioned rock and pop with a fun "makes you want to get up and dance however" bop.

[@dealmakerscasino9762]

This had BETTER become a new Samhain/Halloween classic. Right now. This is great.

[@CaptainCaliansAdventures]

Postin’ this a day before my birthday, thank ye always by the depths of my pirate soul, my Captain! 🦇✨🏴‍☠️

[@HeirofAzaran]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHIPMATE!

[@MMDMizuki]

I've lost count on how many times I listened to this song lol

[@Levanaell]

I love reusage of older tunes in this album, gets me every time (confusion about what song I am listening to is real). This song is my favourite from this album. And this lyric video made my day - the best thing ever

[@TheLairofVoltaire]

There is no "reusage of older tunes" on this album... just different styles I've used in the past that I'm revisiting. Unless of course you mean the references to Friday I'm in Love in It's Always Wednesday and an Oogie Boogie reference in this one. ; )

[@Levanaell]

@@TheLairofVoltaire Then I am very sorry for mistunderstanding then, I was sure it was it something like this. I really love your older styles, maybe I am hearing them where I want them to be :D

[@TheLairofVoltaire]

No need to apologize. I see genres and styles as tools in a tool box and having explored many over the years, I decided I'd use them! I figured I'd make a song that was sort of Ooky Spooky era, one that was Devil's Bris era, one that was Hate Lives in a Small Town era... etc... so those familiar styles is probably what you're noticing. ; )@@Levanaell

[@Levanaell]

@@TheLairofVoltaire Thank you for understanding! I went quickly to check a few of your songs which are in my favorites and yup, they were all from those Eras. I was recently listening to them and particularly "Raised by Bats" and now I know from where I got this feeling of "reusage" :) I'm very sentimental woman :'D Thank you very much for reply and for your music!

[@nightingale4460]

The dancing skeletons bring my cold undead heart back to life

[@amandanelson3345]

Love how you gave them personalities! This one likes poetry! 🤣🤣🤣 I can't pick a favorite!

[@kuriosastoryteller]

This song with Cindie, the queen of halloween are now my two favourite songs of yours! 🖤🖤

[@6DireWolf9]

Spooky Ooky Fun! ✌😎🖤

[@iTANKuUP]

This song has been embedded in my skull for the past week and a half. Definitely a new favorite!

[@vanessax.gutierrezc.8051]

El ritmo me llega a los huesos jsjsjs Definitivamente mi favorito del álbum ^^

[@cheyinuyasha]

This is amazing and I have been a fan of yours for a long time. I love listening to Goth music including yours all year around 😊

[@larissafracalossi9847]

I loved the video, this is my favorite song from this album! The lyrics are amazing and it's impossible not to want to dance along while listening to it XD

[@nickolassceltmorea]

Second time watching and I still feel that special feelings in the music as when I herd when your evil for the first time I can say not even dragon force has the same vibe there songs are missing what you have still keep that joy and emotion in your work makes the difference I noticed alot of music is losing that special gift and it's timeless I hear in your work makes it worth it

[@lorsmephisto5222]

Awesome, just in time

[@tiilopes007]

[@zvonimirtomac7896]

Only Voltaire would dare to share such wonderful fair, I swear

[@lorimaeder1245]

I love this. I hate to say it but this is the first time I actually heard you sing. I've loved listening to your voice while talking this is an amazing voice singing. The video and you are totally AWESOME ❤️✝️🙏

[@cannibalisticrequiem]

For a second, when I saw "Skeleton Dance", I thought that maybe this would be a cover of "Spooky Scary Skeletons"! 😂 But this is definitely better!! A perfect song to add to my Voltaire/Halloween playlist! 🖤 Every October, especially Halloween, I turn on your songs and sing along! Brains!, The Death Death (Devil Devil Evil Evil) Song, Day of the Dead, Land of the Dead, Riding A Black Unicorn, Ex Lover's Lover, Happy Birthday My Old Friend, The Beast of Pirate's Bay... all of them get my bones movin and groovin! Also, can I say I love the dancing skeletons in the background? Very early 2000s CGI vibes!

[@arcticfffox]

Omg, that's awesome! :D Perfect moves.

[@lianejaeger8708]

What an absolute banger!! Just what I need this Halloween 🎃 I've been struggling a lot lately, but this just makes me smile and I can't worry about anything when it plays. A happy Halloween and blessed Samhain to everyone 🦇🖤🧡

[@Queencrazy1997]

This new album is great! I love this one and the Wednesday song especially

[@JoeMotionVideos82]

I love it! I can see a grade school teacher playing this for her class.

[@shelo1009]

This is such a great lyric video.

[@winchesterfamilyforever]

I'm coming to your concert next week and my mum is coming with me. She asked if we could dance to your songs, I sent her that. I hope she is, indeed, learning the skeleton dance 🤣🤣

[@matthiasjagdm3949]

Awesome dance moves in this video will definitely be an inspiration for my own dance video of your awesome song ❣️! Also i am still hopeful for some Halloween interior decoration videos always a treat to see what the stores in the land of Halloween has to offer(I am from Denmark and it's the first year i found things i could use year round) and your halloween decor hunt videos is a ginormous part of my Halloween traditions (rewatching the videos from by gone years right now)
