Dead Or Alive – Something In My House (US 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1986

In 1986, Dead or Alive released their third album, Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know, also produced by SAW. The album included one of the band’s best-known songs, “Something in My House”, tonally very Gothic and with a sleeve depicting Pete Burns in front of what appears to be a Satanic altar, featuring an inverted crucifix. A 12″ version of the song, the “Mortevicar Mix”, featured sampling of dialogue from the soundtrack of “The Exorsist” and a sampling from the George A. Romero American movie trailer from his film “Day of the Dead” (1985).

The US 12″ includes four hot mixes. My favoriteis the latin flavored “Flamenco Mix”.
