Ghosts by Japan, no pun intended!!Really haunting....
Also Liza Radley by the Jam (I think, Paul Weller anyway)

Ever listened to 'The Visitors' by Abba? Although the song has a Disco flavour,the lyrics are spooky.All about someone alone in a room,but she knows there are people outside.She can hear them,and see them moving but they are silent.

Thats it .I'm outta here!!

The Visitors is a serious song, about Russian dissidents

I always though Noel Harrison's `Windmills of your mind`was a haunting song

"Elusive Butterfly" was a hit in Britain for Val Doonican rather than Bob Lind.

It was a hit for both Bob Lind & Val Doonican, amazingly they both reached the top 10 with this song in April 1966, Lind at number 5 & Doonican at number 6. See the chart in the link below.

The Host of Seraphim by Dead Can Dance, which was used at the end of The Mist. Even on a hot day it gives me the shivers.
