3. Wallows – “Drunk on Halloween”

Less spooky and more emotional, Wallows weeps over a breakup with “Drunk on Halloween.” They sing, “On that Halloween you told me / You weren’t drinkin’, I believed you / Now the only time I have’s to / Sit and wonder if you’re thinkin’ / About the fun you’ve had with someone else / I know the truth is wasted on you.” It’s a soft-rock tearjerker and follows the band’s debut EP, Spring, released earlier this year.
