length - the source of the version of Song to the Siren used in the
horror movie's trailer More... |
The
sidebar on this page will take you to a lively discussion about the use of Siren
in the trailer for the 2003 remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, underlining
the confusion about the various remakes by women singers.
Here for possibly the first time, the Estate has made public four tracks -

Song is not the same title that appears on the Rhino Handmade 1999 release
