Great Dark Christmas Humor
Part "Christmas in New York," part "Ciao," a great antidote to outworn pop Christmas songs.

Wow,it doesn't take much to get a bunch of plastic rebels who hate christmas excited does it?
...but this song makes me smile very muchly.
Love improper Christmas stuff. This one is great.
This will be one of the raunchier tracks in your holiday collection, but it's definitely fun.
this is by far THEE best christmas duet in years...ever since David Bowie and Bing Crosby (i'd say) Cyndi sing'n "who the f**k anyway wants a christmas tree" & "i went down on yer mother"...this girl still wants to have fun...and she most definitely does it well sorta rockabilly/50's/indie with peppery lyrics that you just can't help but sing along to The Killers made a great choice pick'n Cyndi Lauper to duet with them...the only thing that could top this jingle would be if they did a twisted video to go along with it :)
You might not want to put this on when your grandma is visiting, but you will want to put it on for friends. Very Phil Spector in sound with lyrics that could never have ended up on the radio in the '60s. Mardukas is right -- this owes a debt to "Fairytale of New York" by the Pogues. Fabulous!!
The only Xmas song I ever put on repeat in my life. This and that drunky Pogues one are the only great holiday songs, everything else makes me want to choke out a store Santa with tinsel. Great rock song with smutty/sweet lyrics. Will still want to hear it when the tree is dead.
