I have some terrible quality video of my dad and niece doing Werewolves of London karaoke at my wedding. It cemented that song in my heart. They did the “awooo” and everything.

  I love the delivery of that line.

I’m just sad that Alley Oop didn’t get a mention. I wanted to marry him when I was four. He had dinosaurs, and stuff.

There are many Roky songs that fit here, but this is a personal favorite:

Normally, I’d vote WZ for anything, but Kellogg’s just took his street cred down a notch. [I saw a Werewolf eating Raisin Bran at the H.E.B., and his hair was perfect][1]

Can anybody tell me how to embed the video?

  just followed @mrapathy’s advice
  
  since it didn’t embed, you might have to find it on youtube and embed from there.

One of my favorite memories of the Miami Book Fair was Warren Zebon playing keyboard and Steven King doing the vocals on Werewolves of London.

I can’t believe you didn’t mention “Mothra” by Anvil! What a Ripper!! Of course, I grew up as a neighbor to Canada, so I’m sure that influences my selection. Good call on the B.O.C., “Godzilla” by the way!

If GlaDOS counts as a monster then I nominate Still Alive by Jonathan Coulton.

- @mrapathy Yep. Especially under the hands of Dorit Chrysler. Her musicality and intonation are impeccable.
