Blue Oyster Cult's song Joan Crawford is haunting...


Mommie Dearest came out in 1981. As did Blue Oyster Cult's LP Fire of Unknown Origin, which contained an amazing song called Joan Crawford. There is a line, "Joan Crawford has risen from the grave..." implying that if she did she would go after Christina Crawford. In the chorus BOC sings hauntingly "Christina, Christina," as if the ghost of Joan is terrorizing her adopted daughter. Spooky stuff, check it out on YouTube.

The song's okay, not one of their better ones, but curious.


Beware the video. It's pretty bad. 
