My Favorite Songs About Anomalous Phenomena, UFOs and General Weirdness
 

The other day, I pointed out to a dear friend how British vocalist Kate Bush, beyond writing and singing songs about paranormal topics, is rumored to have been a real life "ufo investigator" over in Great Britain. We were discussing the Kate Bush songs Cloudbusting (based on a dream by Wilhelm Reich's son) and Experiment IV which I was bringing up because of a recent news article on Israel's use of supposedly non-lethal sound weapons for riot control. See sidebar below right ...

While discussing Kate Bush's inspiration for her Wilhelm Reich song, my friend discovered that both Kate Bush and Patti Smith are authors of songs inspired by Peter Reich's A Book of Dreams. Patti Smith recorded a song called Birdland that is "about Wilhelm Reich coming back for his son in a UFO".

Over the years all my friends with interest in subjects like UFOs, Aliens, Ghosts etc. have collected and shared a vast array of music archiving the various musical mileus that have been touched by the Saucers and their paranormal occupants. Compilations with names like The Saucers Sing and Surely Nothing Human Could... From that huge collection of music memorabilia are a few of my favorites...

Book Of The Week

Thieves in the Night:
A Brief History of Supernatural Child Abductions

"Folklore has always warned of hidden dangers lurking in the shadows, otherworldly beings who seek to steal that which parents hold most dear. In the first book dedicated solely to the subject, Joshua Cutchin traces this primal concern from antiquity to the modern era—beginning with worldwide tales of faeries, changelings, spirits, demons, and monsters, before examining more contemporary phenomena such as Sasquatch kidnappings, alien abductions, and mysterious disappearances in national parks. Folklore, medicine, science, and spirituality come together for a uniquely scholarly perspective on the thieves in the night."
