My humanity
Curfews have been curbing
The end of liberty


We're the flowers in the dustbin...
No fuchsias for you.

Jesus gang, I like to think we're doing a good job proving Christmas music doesn't have to suck. :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

Day 17: Booker T & The MGs - Jingle Bells


Original Release: In the Christmas Spirit
Year: 1966

I bought the Sundazed reissue of this when it came out a few years back- great record. A few Booker T Christmas cuts also appear on the seminal Original Soul Christmas compilation.

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

The amount of gear Peter did I'm surprised he didn't do "Let It Snow" or "White Christmas". ;)

Killer selections, everyone!!

Day 18: Mike Love - (You'll Never Be) Alone on Christmas Day


Original Release: Alone on Christmas Day digital single
Year: 2015

Mike re-recorded this 1977 unreleased Beach Boys song and released it last year. It's... surprisingly good.

Day 19: The Trashmen - Dancing with Santa


Original Release: Dancing with Santa b/w Real Live Doll
Year: 1964

Released a year after Surfin' Bird, this garage rock classic is woefully underappreciated imho.
