Oh, Bela… What you did for money…
  10:13pm P-90:

Smack ain't free
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:14pm DC:

There are those such as John Zacherle who had a real talent and passion for vampiric rocknroll expression, and those like Bela who definitely needed the money and fit the part

Goodbye everybody
  1:09pm Mark in Toronto:

Just to make sure, you all know that Bela Legosi died in 1956, and Joe South didn't write or release Games People Play until 1968. I guess you could argue that Bela was of the undead, and could have recorded the song after he died.
