October 31, 2011: Welcome To My Nightmare by Alice Cooper
- Nominated by Cubs Fan.
- Falling just shy of the Top 40, the title track to Alice's first concept album is five minutes of pure creepiness. I think it's a great choice to celebrate Halloween.

- This song is one of Rush's best, alongside Red Barchetta. The keyboard solos give this song a relaxing feel, and Neil Peart banging away on the drums like he always has makes this a staple in rock music.
