Christmas songs??

Post by Bananababy »

Hey, I feel like downloading some Christmas tunes to get into the holiday spirit, and I was wondering if anyone knows of any bands or singers who have recorded covers and such of christmas songs? Right now I'm downloading David Bowie and Bing Crosby's 'Little Drummer Boy'..
boo.

That's technically "John Lennon and Yoko Ono - Merry Xmas (War is Over)"

I'm partial to Futurama's version of Santa Claus is coming to town:

"He knows when you are sleeping,
He knows when you're on the can,
He'll hunt you down and blast your ass from here to Pakistan!
Ooooh, you better not breathe, you better not move
You're better off dead, I'm telling you dude
Santa Claus is gunning you dooooooooown!"

:lol: :love:

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

I am buying the Conor Oberst cd for this one girl for Christmas. And about getting into the holiday mood, fuck it, it's not worth it. Save yourself the time and money and just treat it like another pointless day.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.
