What do you want for Christmas, little boy?

I want a Damned LP with Eddie & the Hot Rods on the back!
I want a color TV so I can kick it in!
I want an ace guitar and a subscription to Punk Magazine!

What else do you want for Christmas, little boy?

I want 10 copies of "God Save the Queen" with a picture sleeve!


That Damned LP line is a very in-joke.

All of Wings are in the promo video, but the track was released as a Paul McCartney solo single. Why?

This:



Creeps me out today as much as it did 40 years ago. Brilliant telling, and with the great Alastair Sim to boot!

And for some lighter fare:

Put up the outdoor lights and put the tree together today. Decorate it Monday night.

Every year when we put up the tree. And again if I can find time.

Erasure put a synthpop spin on a 16th-century Latin hymn.

OK, so, in this recording, where the traditional lyric is "Mary nodded...", Joan Jett sings something like "Yoida haydash." Can anybody make out what she's really saying? My Hasidic friend Bob says it's not Hebrew, which was my first guess. Maybe she's just adlibbing because she forgot the lyrics?

Speaking of throwaway B-sides, when was the last time they played this one on Christmas radio?
