Helloween Initiation and Halloween(video edit)

Post by Abyss »

So I was listening to these two songs and I kept hearing a tune I recognized after thinking awhile the tune seemed to be trying to say happy happy halloween but also could be my fair lady a verse from london bridges falling down, this tune was used for the movie Halloween III for this jingle for halloween masks it went : Happy Happy Halloween, Halloween, Halloween. Happy Happy Halloween, Silver Shamrock. I have come to believe this is where Helloween got the tune from that they would use in their songs, I could be wrong however as various sources tell me the rhyme itself is not only confined to england so they could have got it from elsewhere but due to their name,the time frame they were formed and the general theme of halloween in their music I am leaning more to the theory of them getting from the movie halloween III.

Starlight is the Helloween song that uses that jingle, not Initiation. But thanks for pointing that out. I've always wondered where that came from and what they were saying after "Happy happy Halloween."

They do use the exact clip from Halloween III on starlight I forgot about that, but they use the tune itself for a few seconds on Initiation and Halloween video edit.

The tune on the video is the same on used on Initiation as well.
