  • Theme song from Mad Monster Party sung by Ethel Ennis
    Lyrics:
    The full moon brings out the monster in you
    A strange tune seems to be playing for you
    Could you be someone's invention?
    It's so unreal, as you feel tonight
    Did you sell your soul to the Devil
    At that monster party last night?
    Mad, Mad, Mad Monster Party
    Did you sell your soul to Mephistopheles?
    Tell me, Baby, tell me, tell me please
    If you made a date with the Devil, not me,
    If you know my fate, Honey, level with me
    The cold night brings out the creature in you
    A strange light seems to be falling on you
    I know it's not your intention,
    To frighten me so, tonight
    Won't you tell me, Baby, what happened,
    At that monster party last night?
    Mad, Maaaad Monster Party last night!

      The song comes from the 1967 Rankin Bass "animagic" film "Mad Monster Party?". Ethel Ennis and Gale Garnett both were under contract by Rca records at the time this was made.

      @ johnnralph. I didn't know that Ethel Ennis died last year (2019). She and Gale Garnett had two of the most beautiful and most underrated and underappreciated singing voices in the history of music! It is amazing that radio stations always fail to play Ethel Ennis' song "Mad Monster Party" at Halloween time each year! I love that song and Gale Garnett's magnificent, "There Never Was A Love Like Mine For You" and "It's Our Time To Shine" from "Mad Monster Party" (1967). I have often wondered if Rankin & Bass saved the original puppets from that movie? Sadly they probably did not. R.I.P. Ethel Ennis.

    Beautifully done theme for a fun classic Rankin Bass gem. This was back when a solid orchestra and a world class arrangement didn't cost an arm and a leg. I remember staying up to watch this cult classic as a kid in the late 60s. Ahhh, memories. It's still fun to revisit this film and the music holds up extraordinarily well. Good stuff.

    Rankin and Bass hire her for that James Bond phenomenon at that time. But she was one hell of a singer, she totally owns this piece of music. Those who we're hip knew this, but later generations have to rediscover her perfect talent. God Bless You Ethel.........

    Pinkstrawberrypudding's right; sounds like a James Bond movie intro. Halfway expect to see Baron Frankenstein (or his nephew Felix for that matter) walking into the eye, turning, and pointing the vile of secret formula at the camera. Boom! lol! What a terrific voice Ethel Ennis has! Played this many times just to hear her sing. Love the movie. Lots of fun to watch, especially as I'm an old movie buff and can make the reference connections.
