I feel like this album doesn’t get the love it deserves because it’s not Oingo Boingo’s normal goofy sound. Every song on here is genuinely great but I barely see any Boingo fans talk about it and it sucks.

Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party 1986
"Dead Man's Party" is a song by American band Oingo Boingo, released as the third single from their fifth studio album of the same name. The song was released on a 12" single in conjunction with another song from the album, "Stay". It is perhaps best known for its appearance in the 1986 film Back to School, where the band performed it at a party.
The lyric, "I hear the chauffeur coming to my door/Says there's room for maybe just one more," is a reference to "The Bus-Conductor," a short story by E. F. Benson about a hearse driver, first published in The Pall Mall Magazine in 1906. The story has been adapted several times and spawned an urban legend, with each version using the catchphrase, "Room for one more".
Danny Elfman performed the song as the final encore of his Nightmare Before Christmas concerts at the Hollywood Bowl in 2015, 2016, and 2018, and at Banc of California Stadium in 2021, alongside his former Oingo Boingo guitarist and arranger Steve Bartek.
"Dead Man's Party" received a total of 80,9% yes votes! Previous Danny Elfman polls: #5 "This Is Halloween".

But when I think of you
And What you’ve done to me
You took away my hope
You took away my fantasy

every other oingo boingo song
*someone banging on a xylophone as chunky guitar riffs are laid over top* you know, i tried to shut my car in my garage and kill myself with the fumes, but the damn thing ran out of gas! *riff* went to the bridge to toss myself in the river, but the current seemed much too fast! *riff* i'm driving myself crazy pacing 'round my room and 'round my home! i should really call somebody, but i can't find the strength to pick up the phone! *riff* aye aye aye aye aye aye aye, why won't god just let me die?! *the nastiest, most insane saxophone solo you've ever heard as danny screams in agony in the background*

I know I’ve infected my girlfriend’s music taste because she’s completely obsessed with Tally Hall and is doing a school project on Danny Elfman. She even asked me for ideas for facts and a story.
