Скачать или смотреть Spooky Scary Skeletons – Swedish translation (lyric video)

This video was originally uploaded (by me) to the community channel ‪@dubbklubben‬, where I'm a contributor, but I always intended to upload it to my personal channel as well. You can watch the original video here:    • Dubbarween 2022 #7 | Spooky Scary Skeleton...  

Obviously, this is a Swedish translation of the classic Halloween song Spooky, Scary Skeletons by Andrew Gold, which I love. I've had the idea to create a Swedish version for a long time, and it's one of the songs I've enjoyed translating the most thus far.

I knew that I wanted to publish this video on Halloween, October 31st. I debated for a long time what format to use (the original DubbKlubben video used the Skeleton Dance cartoon, which will soon be in the public domain). I had a vague idea of what kind of aesthetic I wanted, but I wasn't sure how to bring it to life, which was why this video was postponed longer than intended. I finally decided the most fun solution would be to use my original art. It would've been fun to make the skulls move somehow, but I ain't got time for that.

I don't know if I have much else to say. I wrote about the behind-the-scenes process of working on this project in excruciating detail in the description of DubbKlubben's video. But I hope you like it, and happy Halloween! 💀🎃👻🕸️🦇

Lyrics:

Spöklikt skrämmande skelett som skapar själslig skräck
Skallar skallrar skärrande, snart är ditt hopp väck
Spöklikt skrämmande skelett, sprider sån panik
Du skakar, skälver i din chock när du hört ett zombie-skrik

Det är synd att ni skelett ska ständigt missförstås
Ni söker social kontakt, men vi vill inte nås
För spöklikt skrämmande skelett skanderar skarpa skrin
De smyger från sin sarkofag och spanar med ett flin

Skenheliga skepnader skyr solens strålar skyggt
Men skyddade av skymningen kan benrangel gå tryggt
Spöklikt skrämmande skelett är skoj på samma gång
De skrattar, skrider sakta fram och stojar natten lång!

Ingen trött kan sussa sött, stök står i centrum nu
Spöklikt skrämmande skelett stör din sömn med ett BU!
