Helloween – The dark ride (Studio version)

This is a song by a pioneering German band in melodic power metal.

The track features extraordinary guitar playing and a memorable, melancholic melodic vocal at the end, and I think listening to it while tidying up will put you in a good mood and help you clean more efficiently.

A Little Is A Little Too MuchHelloween16rank/position

HELLOWEEN – A Little Is A Little Too Much (Official Music Video)

A playful, exhilarating rock number delivered by the elder statesmen of power metal.

Written by vocalist Andi Deris, the song offers a lesson—“even a touch of excess can lead to unexpected consequences”—wrapped in bittersweet humor.

Its lively sound, reminiscent of ’80s hard rock, is paired with melodies that carry Helloween’s signature blend of wistfulness and pop sensibility, guaranteed to stick in your head after a single listen.

The call-and-response vocals by Deris and Michael Kiske form a superb ensemble that further elevates the track’s appeal.

Included on the album “Giants & Monsters,” slated for release in August 2025.

With a catchy chorus tailor-made for mass sing-alongs at shows, this is the perfect number when you’re in the mood for a refreshing lift.

Forever And OneHelloween17rank/position

HELLOWEEN – Forever And One (Neverland) (Official Music Video)

The 15th single included on the album “The Time of the Oath,” which marks a return to roots with a collection of songs featuring twin lead guitars.

It’s a relaxed shuffle-beat ballad sung by vocalist Andi Deris, and while it stands out amid the album’s many intense tracks, its beautifully lyrical melody is exceptional.

It also drew attention during the “Pumpkins United Tour,” a world tour held after former vocalist Michael Kiske returned, where the two performed it together.

It’s a gem of a ballad whose high-quality melody shines whether sung by either of the two vocalists, each with their own distinct style.

Just A Little SignHelloween18rank/position

HELLOWEEN – Just A Little Sign (Official Music Video)

In 2003, Helloween, having reclaimed their classic musical style, released their tenth album, “Rabbit Don’t Come Easy.” On this album, Mikkey Dee—known for his work with Motörhead—joined as a special guest on drums.

The combination of Helloween’s signature melodies and powerful drumming results in high-velocity, exhilarating tracks.

Number OneHelloween19rank/position

Helloween – Number One

The fifth single, also included on the album Pink Bubbles Go Ape, which features many poppier and more unique tracks than the band’s trademark melodic speed metal numbers.

Written by Michael Weikath, who has crafted songs that have become synonymous with Helloween, this track presents a completely different image for the band with its simple guitar riffs and arrangements.

However, the poppy, catchy melodies are still very much intact, so Helloween fans should find it naturally appealing.

Because it differs from typical “metal sound” tracks, it’s an easy listen even for those new to Western music or metal.

SkyfallHelloween20rank/position

HELLOWEEN – Skyfall (Official Music Video)

A song released after the sensational return of Kai Hansen and Michael Kiske, who supported Helloween’s golden era.

It’s the lead single from Helloween—the sequel to the album Keeper of the Seven Keys, hailed as Helloween’s finest work—and a 12-plus-minute masterpiece that evokes their early sound.

Its fusion of a back-to-the-roots worldview with the band’s evolution to date achieves a level of completion that surely thrilled Helloween fans worldwide.

Packed with a vibrant, here-and-now appeal, it’s a metal number that signals the beginning of a new golden age for Helloween.

This Is TokyoHelloween21rank/position

HELLOWEEN – This Is Tokyo (Official Music Video)

Helloween, the German power metal legends, have unleashed a long-awaited strike on the scene.

This track, released in June 2025, is a lead single from the album “Giants & Monsters,” scheduled for an August 2025 release.

It’s a true stadium-shaking anthem, dedicated to Japan—the place where vocalist Andi Deris first achieved major success.

As he puts it, the word “Tokyo” carries his feelings for all of Japan, and you can sense the passionate message behind it.

The band’s signature blend of lyricism and power, delivered by the twin vocals of Andi Deris and Michael Kiske, is as strong as ever, and the interplay between them is a highlight to watch for.

With “Live at Budokan” arriving in December 2024, their deep connection with Japan is unmistakable.

This track’s quintessential Helloween speed and dramatic development make it a gem that will thrill longtime fans while heralding a bold new chapter for the band.
