    The lead singer is Oscar and Emmy award winner Danny Elfman. He is a true legend!!! He's done scores for over 100 feature films and his abridged list includes Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Wednesday, Darkman, A Simple Plan, Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2, Meet the Robinsons, and Good Will Hunting. He wrote music for all of the Men in Black and Fifty Shades of Grey franchise films, as well as the songs and score for The Nightmare Before Christmas, and the themes for the popular television series Desperate Housewives and The Simpsons.

    The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo was a musical/theatre group formed by the singer Danny Elfman’s older brother Richard Elfman. They used to perform really abstract performances and even appeared on The Gong show in the 70’s. The last thing the Mystic Knights did was a film called Forbidden Zone. After that, most of the members split along with Richard. Danny stuck it out and added more musically inclined members, dropped the Mystic Knights, and just kept it Oingo Boingo, and later released one album as just Boingo. Danny is now a solo artist and composer who has done almost every single Tim Burton film, the Simpson, and numerous super hero films. He also wrote all the songs for The Nightmare Before Christmas while providing the singing voice for Jack Skellington and a character calle Lock, and also wrote the songs and score for The corpse Bride while providing vocals for the character Bone Janggles.

    Danny always had some sort of a fascination with the macabre. Not in a self deletion way, as you surmise, but more of a fun quirky misfit type of way, IMO. That's why he and Tim Burton made such a great team and have done many great things together as they had a similar vision. This is the quintessential Halloween party song. Their earlier music in particular was some of the quirkier stuff you'll ever hear and the band is uber-talented and infused SKA elements with the horns, etc. New Wave is more an 80's phenomenon (& a lot of it was synth based), BTW, and was pretty much the first version of Alt-Rock, which became more guitar based in the 90's with grunge, etc. Electronica was also born in the 90's & much of that was considered Alt as well

    "Don't run away. It's only me. Don't be afraid of what you can't see."
    This is from the perspective of a ghost telling people not to be afraid of him. It's still only him. He's just a ghost now. But no. He's not the only person at the dead man's party because there's always "room for maybe just one more."

    The band was featured w/ this song in the movie Back To School. Fun movie.
    Oingo Boingo is/was a ska band w/ elements of new wave/punk, but changed to pop then later alternative rock. I'd guess this song is more ska and new wave. (I'll admit I'm not very familiar w/ much ska. Just know a few bands so far).

    He had never done other kinds of music, much less a score, when his friend, Tim Burton, asked him to score one of his first films. The rest is history as he has done pretty much all the scores to Burton’s films! BTW, Oingo Boingo was pretty popular with skaters back when it had its boom and I think it was mix of New Wave, Ska and just a lot of fun and quirkiness!

    How do you tell a well rounded and skilled conductor, not just a musician?
    By how accurate the band under their leadership sounds from studio to live.
    And the quality and dexterity of the musical jigsaw puzzle they construct.

    That's Danny Elfman leading this band. You've probably heard his film scores behind more movies than you'd believe. You might also recognize his voice as that of Jack Skellington from the Nightmare Before Christmas.

    The song itself is just about the fact that we all die. The lyrics, "I was struck by lighting, walking down the street. I was hit by something in my sleep" is a couple of people dying in different ways. Then the lyric, "...everybody's coming, leave your body and soul at the door", is just saying, that literally everyone dies at some point.
    Certainly a theme on this album, since there is another fantastic song on it called, "No One Lives Forever" about the same thing.

    Great band, a bit new wave, a bit ska, but not either; so he got struck by lightning, now he's dead, where this exclusive dead mans party is taking place is not clear, he's waiting for an invitation, and room for just one more, but everybody's coming, leave your body and soul at the door, which kinda makes no sense but it's such a fun, goofy song and the musicianship is so good it doesn't even matter. Danny Elfman is such an incredible songwriter
