TRACK #325:

Halloween by Run feat. Michael Heart

Since we’re apparently knee deep in some sort of weird shoot-out for most straight up 80’s sounding Halloween song ever, we’re gonna let the “ band” Run make their case to close us out.

Now, I’m not sure who the clear winner is, but Run definitely puts up a solid argument for themselves here, with the help of Michael Heart, who apparently arranged, wrote and provided the vocals for this track.

I guess Michael Heart is a pseudonym for Italo-producer and composer Bruno Kassar, who had a string of aliases under which he released all kinds of music. Is Run one of those?

Damned if it know, as this appears to be their sole release. The only other thing I can dig up on them is this business with Michael Heart. Since he’s a known pseudonymist, producing all sorts of shit under aliases, perhaps Run really is just another one for the fire.

That’ll have to be a Shindig mystery for another time, it seems. For now, let’s give the floor to The Phoenician himself, Mr. Michael Bruno Firefly 5 Heart Kassar with the exceedingly 80’s Halloween (Dance Version) by Run.

 

2026 Update: An exceedingly invested Shindig fan was looking for the Radio Version of this tune and was dissatisfied with the current audio quality on offer from YouTube. I liked the cut of his jib, so I went and sources a 12″ vinyl copy and ripped it straight to the box. If any of y’all ‘weeners are trying to get ahold of that version of the track, just click here and it’ll take ya straight to it. Happy dancin’!
