Description:
“Spooky” by The Classics IV is a smooth, sultry track blending soft rock and soul elements, characterized by its eerie, jazzy guitar riff, lush strings, and airy vocals. The single became a commercial hit, reaching #3 on the Billboard Hot 100, while the B-side, “Poor People,” offers a more reflective, socially aware counterpoint.

“Spooky” has been covered by artists such as Dusty Springfield and Atlanta Rhythm Section, and its instrumental and melodic hooks continue to influence contemporary soul and soft rock recordings. The track’s enduring appeal lies in its seamless mix of pop accessibility, sultry groove, and evocative atmosphere.
