CIVL Station Manager Aaron Levy knows it’s Halloween, but do you?

Tracy Morgan – Werewolf Bar Mitzvah
Once a year, this classic holiday parody cut is required listening for UFV students, as well as music and comedy lovers the world over. Owing to the cultural insensitivity of a pre-cancel culture, post-SNL era Tracy Morgan, this 30 Rock novelty sketch is nothing short of absolutely brilliant.
It’s not a Halloween song, but it does feature Billy Joel’s discussion of how masks play into our personal identities, our relationships with others, and the hiding of our deepest, more inward directed thoughts and feelings. “Well we all have a face that we hide away forever.” The Stranger!
Classic cut here from the second of three EP’s released by this legendary local Valley act, now relocated, as previously shuffled, to the wilderness of Manitoba. The video features cousin band Loans’ singer and guitarist Alexx donning a freaky mask and doing freaky things with a banana between funky dancing.
Previously shuffled, the video for this significant other-oriented top 40 collaboration presents Offset in a spooky if nondescript dog face mask, representing the anonymity provided by social media for those looking to “talk crazy on tweets.” Co-parent Cardi also bemoans how blogs regularly “say my name, Destiny’s Child.”
