Ian McGlynn - Monsters Cry Too

Halloween is a holiday, right?  Well, it might be several months off from October, but why not have a wondrous, pleasant reminder of an always-fun, now thought-provoking day?

The always wonderful Ian McGlynn brings us "Monsters Cry Too," a single from 2010 that I came across during a browse through Noisetrade, another free (and definitely legal) music site.  You thought "Small Town, Big Hearts" was good?  Give this a listen.  A fantastical piano-laden track, "Monsters Cry Too" gives us a glimpse of October 31 from the monsters' point of view (I can't always be under your bed, or first in your fears).  Mr. McGlynn suggests that there is more to them than terror and sharp teeth, and does it beautifully.  I suddenly feel more sympathetic to whatever lurks under my bed right now, or whatever is living in the spare room across the hall.  After all, monsters cry too.
