Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas.

I say it's for the Nightmare, but it's really all about "Bar-B-Que", I swear that never fails.

And Wendell the porcupine.

I'm truly sorry, but all Christmas music and related stuff sucks pretty much.

What's great about Emmet Otter is none of the songs are directly about Christmas, actually the songs have zero Christmas imagery or themes. You could record those songs as folk songs (and a rock song) and they'd work.

Like it's root O Henry's "the Gift Of The Magi" it's more about the season and the lengths people go to during the season to try to get something for someone they love. I suppose it's materialistic but it's more real than some story about some mythical baby or some saccharin miracle. It's an entirely irreligious and humanistic Christmas special. Those hippies at the Henson company weren't into no baby jesus crap.

Plus, y'know, Muppets and the whole Muppet crew doing characters they've only ever done that one time. I grew up on the Muppet Show, this was like a sidestep into another world. They had a huge set, they did some marionette type elements it was different but the same.

I say this as someone who generally loathes Christmas things not involving Bill Murray (there's another one, Scrooged rules) or Charlie Brown, Emmet Otter is the perfect antidote to maudlin Christmas crap.

Oh, and Rev. Horton Heat's Christmas album is pretty fun.

Music:
"Run Rudolph Run" Chuck Berry wrote it, so STFU.

"Santa's Got a Brand New Bag" Bob Seger does a James Brown parody as an Xmas song.

"Merry Fucking Christmas" and the rest of the South Park Mr Hankey album.

"Fuck Christmas" by Fear

The Nation Lampoon Christmas movie with the Griswolds was pretty good. "Scrooged" was alright, too.

No X-Mas songs make the cut. They all suck.

Sorry, but this song rules:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gddlNth2-_A


The Most Offensive Song Ever

Howdy Ho!
The Virgin Mary was sleeping
When Angel Gabriel appeared.
He said, "you are to be the virgin mother,"
And Mary thought that was weird.
Mary said, "I'm not a virgin
I blew a guy last year"
But then, Gabriel said to Mary,
"My child, have no fear:

"'Cause you can suck all the dick you want



And still be a Virgin, Mary.
You can suck all the dick you want,
And still not be considered flawed.
Though, Mary, you went to town,
and sucked some semen down,
You're still still a virgin
In the eyes of god!"

There was no room at the Inn
When Mary and Joseph did arrive.
They were so very tired, you see,
and Mary had to offer him a bribe.
Said she had no money,
and they had no place to sleep.
Gabriel appeared to Mary,
And told her not to weep.

"'Cause you can suck all the dick you want
And still be a Virgin, Mary.
you can suck all the dick you want
And still be the mother of Christ.
If there's no room at the Inn,
then it's not considered a sin
to suck a dick to get a room for free!"

That's right..

And three wisemen did appear
Bearing gifts of myrrh and such.
They said that they had followed a star,
And missed a woman's touch.
Mary thought that she might pleasure them,
But could not take them to bed.
But, again, Gabriel appeared to her
And this is what he said...

"You can suck all the dick you want,
And still be a Virgin, Mary.
You can suck all the dick you want,
Everyone in the nation.
Fellatio ain't no sin,
So go and blow those three wise men!
And you'll still be a virgin,
'Cause there ain't no penetration!"

You can suck all the dick you want,
And still be a Virgin, Mary!
The donkey, or the ox and the lamb
And even the little drummer boy.
Folks will remember your name quick!
They'll say, "Damn, that bitch can suck a dick"!
'Cause sucking dick
Brings peace on earth and joy.
'Cause sucking dick
Brings peace on earth and joy.

Mary, you can suck my dick!

I'm probably in the minority, but the High Llamas' "Beet, Maize and Corn" isn't technically a Christmas album, but it has a Christmas-y feel to it without slamming you over the head with songs about 'ol Saint Nick. It sounds sorta like if Syd Barrett continued on his solo work, kind of whimsical and childlike.

Stollen and koffie for breakfast.

Booze straight after breakfast.

Cooking a big meal while getting wobbly.

Eating a big meal then going for a walk in the world once you can move again knowing that there's very little going on.

I was going to say 'Tim Robbins' Nightmare before Christmas', but the whole dark athmosphere is ruined by the happy ending.


El Vez's Merry Mex-mas CD.
