Norwegian musician Leo Moracchioli created a Ghostbusters metal cover that totally reinvents the iconic theme song.
The original was recorded in 1984 by Ray Parker, Jr. as the theme song for the Ghostbusters movie. The song was a hit, remaining at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks in August of '84. Just as the Bill Murray movie has remained a classic, the Ghostbusters song can still be heard at bars, bar mitzvahs and retro-themed parties, inspiring 80s dance moves and invisible proton packs everywhere it goes.
The Ghostbusters theme song has been around for over 30 years now and nothing breathes fresh air into an old classic like a genre re-interpretation. This Ghostbusters metal cover answers the timeless question "Who ya gonna call?" in a whole new way.
