GhostThe official lyric video for the song "Lost Without Love" can be seen below.THE 69 EYES released a digital EP, "Love Runs Away", via iTunes on February 1. The effort included two previously unreleased bonus songs, "Rosary Blue" and "Dracula's Castle"."Love Runs Away", the third single and opening track of THE 69 EYES' latest album, "X", which came out in September 2012, has by now already become a live favorite with its pure rocking metal riffs and a chorus with a bulletproof hook line. The larger-than-life ballad duet "Rosary Blue" on which Jyrki69 is accompanied by world-famous tattoo artist and "L.A. Ink" star Kat Von D is the first of two never-before-heard bonus tracks. Jyrki69 said: "We've known each other for some years and since Kat is also starting to make music, I thought it would be interesting to have her on board. The song is amazing and with her help, it turned out even more magical it's like our own 'Stairway to Heaven'."The final track, "Dracula's Castle", is at least equally interesting, as it can be considered pure rockabilly or rather gothabilly! Jyrki69 shared its background: "THE FUZZTONES is one of my all-time favorite bands and I've got to know their leader Rudi Protrudi a bit. We wrote this track with him in Berlin one night before our show and he actually even sings backing vocals on it. Words can't describe the feeling of making music with your own idol I still can't believe it! The song is like a Scooby Doo-on-acid-by-Halloween kind of gothabilly track."
