Tiny Tim- Tiptoe By the Window

This song has a very creepy atmosphere, as it almost sounds patronizing and aimed at children, as if creeping by people's windows is normal. His high pitched voice also sounds un-nreving. This would be suitable for physiological or slasher films.

Children singing in a hypnotic/patronising way. Whispering also sounds un-nerving with the piano chords and strings getting more frantic. The horrible squeak sound effect at the end makes you wonder what has happened.

This associates children due to the toy. It gives the audience an un-nerving feeling, and they aren't sure what is going to happen. Musical box music usually builds to a horrible ending.
