Merry Christmas ya filthy animals!!! Are you ready to jingle your bells? Are you ready to roast your chestnuts? Are you ready to twist your sister??? We're ranking the tracks on an album that no-one asked for, but Twisted Sister delivered anyway! That's right, it's A Twisted Christmas and we're all over it, under it, and around it. But how will our two intrepid podcasters feel about an album full of Christmas songs by a hard rock/glam metal outfit? Will it get the thumbs up, or will Kev and Corey think that "This pretentious ponderous collection of religious rock psalms is enough to prompt the question, 'What day did the Lord create Spinal Tap, and couldn't he have rested on that day too?"The only way to find out is to come ye to Bethlehem!Songs covered in this episode: "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas", "Oh Come All Ye Faithful", "White Christmas", "I'll Be Home for Christmas", "Silver Bells", "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus", "Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow", "Deck the Halls", "The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)", "Heavy Metal Christmas (The Twelve Days of Christmas)"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.socialDiscord: https://discord.gg/76F8G8FEX8Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/ultimatecatalogueclash Hosted on Acast.

Most holiday pop songs tend to be joyful, energetic, or heartwarming, summoning nostalgia for the season and evoking what top scientists have defined as “feeling that gingerbread feeling.” But the holiday music canon is also peppered with bizarre little tunes that play up the ridiculous traditions we largely take for granted, or mock the treacly emotionalism of Christmas. While we have covered many of the more serious songs in the Christmas canon, this year the Great Pop Culture Debate is turning its attention to the intentionally absurd, the deliberately offputting as it debates the Best Novelty or Parody Holiday Song. Songs discussed: “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas,” “The Chipmunk Song,” “The Chanukah Song,” “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer,” “Dominick the Donkey,” “The 12 Pains of Christmas,” “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus,” “Nuttin' for Christmas,” “All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth,” “Christmas at Ground Zero,” “You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” etc. Join host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Andrea Guerrero, Derek Mekita, and Jonny Minogue as they discuss 16 of the silliest holiday songs of all time.

Okay. No one wants to spoil the party.But according to the American Psychological Association, 89% of US adults reported feeling stressed during the 2023 holiday season. It's a good news, bad news situation much like this podcast which is truly a conflicted search for the highway to heaven, if such a utopia indeed exists.At least we make an effort to engage about the comforted and the awkward which is more than I can say for many who only pretend to do so.The holiday season can cause stress for many reasons, including:Being exposed to constant, over exposed or insipid Christmas songs everywhere from your radio to each elevator and mall assault across the USA. The Phil Spector Christmas Album is all I require. And I must admit that I have enormous affection for "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus"-Family gatherings leading to the desire to drink like Ray Milland in Lost Weekend-Lack of time-The demands of hosting gatherings-The pressures of gift-giving-Navigating complex family dynamics- But here's the good news:“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words but to live by them.”—John F. Kennedy“Friendship… is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.”- Muhammad AliAnd more ultimate wisdom arrives in the truths of what I consider the greatest gratitude song ever written, THE REBEL JESUS as composed by Jackson Browne"But pardon me if I have seemedTo take the tone of judgementFor I've no wish to come betweenThis day and your enjoymentIn a life of hardship and of earthly toilThere's a need for anything that frees usSo I bid you pleasure and I bid you cheerFrom a heathen and a paganOn the side of the rebel Jesus"-In closing I leave you with the following:"I haven't been saved but it could happen yet."-Robert Earl KeenAmen Brothers and Sisters.And The Beat Goes On-Thank You Listening Gang.-Rich Buckland
Barry and Abigail discuss All the Little Lights by Passenger and sample Voodoo Ranger Atomic Pumpkin from New Belgium Brewing Company in Fort Collins, Colorado; Heads Will Roll from Yeasty Brews Artisanal Beers in Lauderhill, Florida; and Pumpkin Spies from Dangerous Minds Brewing Company in Pompano Beach, Florida. Abigail saw Passenger live in Orlando on September 7, 2013 - the first concert tickets she bought with her own money, as a 19th birthday present to herself! Unfortunately, the setlist is not available online, but you can see the frequently played songs on that tour here. Ed Sheeran and Passenger recorded an acoustic mash-up of No Diggity by Blackstreet featuring Dr. Dre and Queen Pen and Thrift Shop (feat. Wanz) by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. Watch it here! Holes reminded Abigail of Oh! by Eric Hutchinson. Barry likewise compared it to Hard Times for an Honest Man by John Mellencamp (which Abigail thinks sounds a lot like Mellencamp's version of I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus). Up next… Tim by The Replacements Jingles are by our friend Pete Coe. Visit Anosmia Awareness for more information on Barry's condition.

There are lots of classic holiday songs, but one of them didn't get a warm welcome from some corners when it was first released. Here's why "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" was condemned and even briefly banned in some parts of the US. Plus: the time some parents had an aspiring drummer in the house and lost the plot for Christmas presents.

Riddle me this, do you think the child in ‘I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus' was traumatically impacted after seeing this domestic scandal, and did or didn't he become Jewish thereafter? Those are the hard hitting questions we're hoping to solve in this week's rambling… Tomatalk time folks.
Today Sue brings you news on "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus", the 100 best TV show theme songs, and the Random Fact of the Day on the Empire State Building!
We at What the Riff!?! hope that y'all have a great Christmas — we hope these songs make your season a little more merry and bright.“Deck the Halls” by Twisted SisterThis classic carol was probably not originally envisioned to be quite as rocking as this, but Dee Snyder and Twisted Sister took it up a notch! This is the sixth and last Twisted Sister studio album they would produce, and we're sure they donned their gay apparel for this final outing. “Skynyrd Family” by Lynyrd SkynyrdSome southern charm was put on this song that tells of Lynyrd Skynyrd finishing up their tour and headed home for Christmas. It is off their eleventh studio album entitled “Christmas Time Again,” released in 2000. “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus” by the Jackson 5John Lynch brings us a classic Christmas song as performed by the Jackson 5. Michael Jackson recorded this song on his 12th birthday in 1970.“2000 Miles” by the PretendersThis song was on “Learning to Crawl,” the breakout studio album by the Pretenders released in 1983. Chrissie Hynde wrote the song for James Honeyman-Scott, the group's original guitarist who had passed away the year prior to this recording.“Mistress for Christmas” by AC/DCRob may find a lump of coal in his stocking for picking this song for the Christmas podcast! Brian Johnson of AC/DC isn't looking for peace, love, and joy for Christmas…but for a little Christmas nookie. We learned that this song was inspired by Donald Trump.“Joy to the World” by Michael BoltonWe don't get a lot of Michael Bolton on our podcasts, and John Lynch set out to rectify that. Bolton voices this classic Christmas hymn in his unique Yacht Rock style.“Boogie Woogie Santa Claus” by the Brian Seltzer OrchestraBrian Seltzer of Stray Cats fame put this one out there in 2002. The Brian Seltzer Orchestra formed in 1990 as a swing and jump blues band, and put out the album “Boogie Woogie Christmas” with this and other Christmas classics. This is a cover of the song, which was originally released by Mabel Scott in 1954.“(There's No Place Like) Home for the Holidays” by Perry ComoPerry Como released this classic Christmas song in 1954. It tells of the longing to be home at Christmas, and some of the travelers making their way home.“Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree” by Brenda LeeJohnny Marks, who wrote “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer,” “A Holly Jolly Christmas,” and other Christmas songs wrote this one as well. Brenda Lee recorded this in 1958 when she was 13 years old. It is the fifth best selling Christmas single of all time according to Neilson SoundScan. “Feliz Navidad” by Jose FelicianoPuerto Rican musician Jose Feliciano wrote this in 1970. He recorded it in Los Angeles while feeling homesick at Christmas as his extended family was in New York. “Feliz Navidad” means “Merry Christmas” in Spanish. “It's Gonna Be a Punk Rock Christmas” by the RaversWayne brings us a bit of PUNK for the Christmas season. The Ravers released this back in 1977. “It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” by Andy WilliamsWe decided to include more “non-rock singles” in this episode, and this classic holiday tune originated in 1963 on Williams' first Christmas album. It tells of all the activities that surrounds the Christmas season.“Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!” by Dean MartinSammy Cahn and Jule Styne wrote this in the summer of 1945 during a heat wave in Hollywood, California. Dean Martin released a version in 1959, and re-recorded it in 1966.“Blue Christmas” by Seymour Swine and the SquealersThis novelty song was recorded in 1984 for a North Carolina radio station morning show. Denny Brownlee is the comedian and impressionist who brought Seymour Swine to life - primarily to avoid copyright issues associated with ©Porky Pig.“O Come All Ye Grateful Dead Heads” by Bob RiversComedian Bob Rivers had this parody on his “Twisted Christmas” album in 1987.We hope y'all have a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
If the Christmas classic “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus” is dirty then “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” celebrates bullying. Let's lighten up.
The spirit of Christmas isn't captured by "Jingle Bells" or "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus." We hear the spirit of Christmas in the song Mary lifted to God as she celebrated the gift of the Savior in her womb. We hear it in the words Zechariah sang after his wife, Elizabeth, gave birth to their long-awaited and God-given son, John the Baptist. And we hear it especially in the song the angels sang at Jesus' birth, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” This Advent series encourages us to stop and listen to "The Songs of Christmas." Tonight's special "Christmas Eve candle light service" message concludes our series by looking at "SIMEON'S SONG" from Luke 2:25-32. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rittman-grace/message

Half of the mortality rate is said to be attributable to “human rights violations.” People around the world were moved, like Irish singer-songwriter Bob Geldof, who along with Midge Ure, wrote a fundraiser song. Who could they get to sing it? How about “everybody”? The likes of Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, Boy George, Bono, and Sting joined forces as Band Aid to record the fast-selling single in UK history, asking us the question “Do They Know It's Christmas?” My name's… Some songs rub us the wrong way because they're sung by shrieking children on now-oudated equipment was was not kind to female and higher-pitched voices, songs like I'm Getting Nuthin for Christmas and All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth, standards which I think think would have died away if we weren't all made to sing them in elementary school. Some are painfully goofy, like Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer, but you almost have to give them a pass since it seems they accomplished what they set out to do. Some songs make us their enemy by borrowing into our brains and setting up shop for hours or days on end, the dreaded holiday earworm, like Jingle Bell Rock and Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree. The mere mention of the title is enough to activate them like a sleeper cell of obnoxious holiday cheer. Banned You might be able to forbid people in your own home from playing songs that irritate you –and I stress “might”-- but if you can find yourself with a bit of authority and a big enough humbug up your butt, you can try to make it so nobody has to hear the song either. For instance, the 1952 classic “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus,” sung by 13-year-old Jimmy Boyd from Mississippi. Did you realize the song was about the little boy not realizing that his Dad was dressed as Santa? It had to be pointed out to me, and embarrassingly recently. People were *scandalized by the musical marriage of sex and Christmas, with one churchgoer stating “mockery of decent family life as well as Christ's birthday.” Many pearls were clutched. They'd probably clutch them pearls twice as hard if I'd been there to tell them Jesus wasn't born on 12/25, but that's another show. Boston's Catholic Archdiocese denounced it and the young Boyd had to meet with church leaders to explain that Mommy and Santa were properly, sanctily married. A West Virginia broadcasting company prohibited its radio stations from playing this “insult to Santa Claus.” The same thing happened to one of my husband's favorite songs, Lou Monte's “Dominick the Donkey,” but the people of WV went to bat for the little donkey who could take the Italian hills that were too much for the reindeer. The public protested the ban so forcefully that it was repealed after less than two weeks; and this was in 1960, when 20% of homes in the US still didn't have a telephone. For every time the hubs plays Dominick the Donkey, I play the Pogue's Fairytale of New York at least twice. A lot of folks don't like, and I respect our difference of opinions, and think it's the farthest thing from a cheery Xmas song, and I agree with y'all there. The 1987 duet with singer Kirsty MacColl, quickly became a UK holiday classic, famous then infamous in turn. It tells the story of a toxic couple who seem to love each deep down, but should probably not be allowed within 200m of each other. There's talk of drug use and insults, including a certain homophobic slur to rhyme with the word “maggot.” In December 2019, BBC radio DJ Alex Dyke said he was cutting the song from his program. The BBC had previously censored the song in 2007 with an unconvincing word-swap, but this brought more backlash than the original version had. The BBC reversed course for a few years, then put the censored version back up. What do you think? soc med Some songs we consider absolute standards, impeccable and indispensable, made people in their day as prickly as holl and less than jolly. The BBC worried that “I'll Be Home for Christmas” could damage British morale during World War II, so no air-play for you! In an amazingly blunt statement that would definitely trend on Twitter today: “We have recently adopted a policy of excluding sickly sentimentality which, particularly when sung by certain vocalists, can become nauseating and not at all in keeping with what we feel to be the need of the public in this country.” One of the most frequently cover and burlesqued-to songs, Santa Baby, wouldn't have become the classic it did if it had been sung by anyone other than the utterly incomparable Eartha Kitt. Who doesn't love a Christmas song dripping in sexuality, sung by a loudly self-confident mixed race woman? In 1953, a lot of people. Radio stations refused to play it and political officials gnashed their teeth after Kitt performed Santa Baby at a dinner for the king and queen of Greece that November. That was an unusual sentence and I'm stalling for time to let you process it. However, Billboard magazine reported “Neither the King nor his Queen were one whit disturbed by the chantress's performance, nor by the song.” Kitt was quoted as saying it was ‘inconceivable that anyone would question the ingenious poetry of the song.'” I don't know about poetry, but I do know I don't want to hear any version other than hers. Chipmunks My hatred for this next song cannot be overstated. I almost hired an editor just for this section. It's shrill, it's pointless, and it's been playing for 63 freaking years. It's the goddamn Chipmunks' song aka Christmas Don't Be Late. I'm mad already. Named after the president, chief engineer, and founder of Liberty Records, the furry little characters are the members of a “band”, called Alvin And The Chipmunks, while a “man” named David Seville functions as their human manager, catapulting them to super stardom. The Chipmunks, three singing cartoon rodents in Victorian nightdresses apparently, or maybe ill-fitted sweater dresses, were the brainchild of a songwriter named Ross Bagdasarian, though he was better known by the pseudonym of David Seville, the name that would be immortalized as The Chipmunk's fictitious manager. Bagdasarian was the son of Armenian immigrants to California, who served in the Army Air Force in WWII, which is how he came to find himself stationed in Seville, Spain. He did a bit of acting, landing minor roles in Rear Window and Stalag 17. Songwriting played out considerably better. In 1951, he used the melody of an Armenian folk song to write Rosemary Clooney's hit, Come On-a My House. [sfx clip] Bagdasarian-cum-Seville began toying around with voice distortion effects, speeding up and slowing down his voice to achieve the cute high pitched sound of the little animal's voices. Consumer tape decks at the time had changeable speeds, but usually only in simple binary multiples, doubling or halving the speed, creating sounds an octave apart. Changing speeds of voices in these limited multiples creates extremely high or low pitches that sound too extreme for most purposes. Disney used half-speed recording for his Chip ‘n Dale cartoon characters, making the extremely fast dialogue difficult to understand. As a result, dialog recorded at that speed had to consist of very short phrases. Seville's chief innovation was to use tape machines that could vary speeds in between these extremes, creating more understandable and thus emotionally accessible voices that worked well for both singing and spoken dialogue. The Chipmunk Song made its debut on Christmas 1958 and immediately became a smash hit, reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Pop Singles chart. It would be the “band's” first and only #1 song, as well as Seville's second and final, No. 1 single. The first was the song Witch Doctor, wanna hear it here it goes [sfx clip] I guess when you have a hammer… A write-up in Life magazine in 1959, noted that Bagdasarian/Seville was the first case in the "annals of popular music that one man has served as writer, composer, publisher, conductor and multiple vocalist of a hit record, thereby directing all possible revenues from the song back into his pocket." That'd be impressive enough even if you didn't know that Seville couldn't read or write music, nor play any instruments, but now you do know that, so you should be quite impressed. The Chipmunk Song earned them three Grammy Awards at the very first Grammy's the following May. I'm going to say that again, because I don't think you heard me. The Chipmunks song won three Grammy's. In fairness, one is for best children's song. A few years later, The Chipmunks landed their own television show as cartoon characters, but it did not command the same success their music career. After Bagdasarian passed away unexpectedly in 1972, his son and daughter-in-law took over the voices of The Chipmunks, but it would take nearly ten years for The Chipmunks made it back to TV, with their 1981 Christmas special, the ingeniously named “A Chipmunk Christmas.” Like a holiday Jason Vorhees, "The Chipmunk Song" re-entered the Billboard Hot 100 in 2007 with the CGI Alvin and Chipmunks movie. As of December 25, 2011, Nielsen SoundScan estimated total sales of the digital track at 867,000 downloads, making it third on the list of all-time best-selling Christmas/holiday digital singles. #3 was Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24 from Trans-Siberian Orchestra, who I've had the mixed blessing to see live – the performance was great but the stage light swept over the audience constantly; it was like having a camera flash go off in your face several times a minute. #1 is, to the surprise of no one, Mariah Carey's 1994 "All I Want for Christmas Is You" and that's all the more attention she's getting from me. If you ever want a real smdh moment, Google Mariah Carey's requirements to appear on camera for interviews. The word “diva” doesn't begin to describe it. Wonderful Now this one depends on the day. Some days, it's so bad it's good and some days, and for some people all days, it's the regular kind of bad. [sfx clip] Say what you will about it, you can't say Paul McCartney didn't put in the work. Wonderful Christmastime features McCartney on guitar, bass, keyboards, drums and vocals, even the creepy-sounding ‘choir of children.' Makes one wonder why he even kept a band around. You see the other members of Wings in the video, but the song was all McCartney. Like a number of holiday classics that you heard about in the episode #92, The Jews Who Wrote Christmas, Wonderful Christmastime was written on a ‘boiling hot day in July', and recorded during sessions for the McCartney II album. It apparently took the former Beatle just ten minutes to pen the song which – some of us find that more readily-believable than others. One of the most memorable elements of the song is the odd synthesiser sound that punctuates it throughout. That is, if you care to know, a Sequential Circuits Prophet-5, which was also used on the hit songs Bette Davis Eyes and What a Fool Believes. Though I suppose it's still a Sequential Circuits Prophet-5 even if you don't care to know. It peaked at number six on the UK Singles Chart and has since become of the most widely played Christmas songs on radio. Bonus fact: The Beatles only really had one Christmas release – Christmas Time Is Here Again, which was distributed to their fan club in 1967. I imagine that would fetch a pretty pence on the secondary market. [sfx typing] checking ebay…Oh, they're actually pretty cheap. If you don't like the song, you're not alone. McCartney himself isn't all that keen on it, but he has begun playing it on UK tours in recent years. You gotta give the people what they want and clearly enough people want Wonderful Christmastime. According to the Forbes website, McCartney earns over $400,000 royalties from the song every year, though other sources claim that figure is probably the cumulative total. Little Drummer Boy As time passes, tastes change, culture shifts, new things are created and old things fall away. We rarely ride in one-horse open sleighs –I can't remember the last time I was even in a closed one-horse sleigh– and it seems really strange to us that people sat about telling ghost stories. So maybe that's why I don't understand The Little Drummer Boy. How is a drum solo an appropriate gift for a sleeping infant and the woman who just squoze him out in a cow-shed? The ox and lamb kept time? That's literally the drummer's only job. Well, that and making the rest of the band's drinking problem look reasonable. Hey, what's the difference between a drummer and a drum machine? You only have to punch the info into the drum machine once. [sfx rimshot] What do you call a drummer who broke up with his girlfriend? Homeless. [sfx rimshot] Don't worry, drummers, this abuse isn't exclusive. What do you call the pretty girl on a bassist's arm? A tattoo. That's my time, good night! How old do you think this slow, plodding song is? I couldn't have put a year to my guess, but for some reason it surprised me that it was written in 1941. The composure was a teacher named Katherine Kennicott Davis. Originally called "Carol of the Drum" –does what it says on the tin– was based on an unidentified Czech carol and intended for choirs. One group of singers took a liking to it and propelled it to success in 1951 - The Trapp Family Singers. As boring as it is, The Little Drummer Boy lets us draw a straight line between the Trapp Family and ‘the lad insane' David Bowie. In 1977, Bowie was 'actively trying to normalize' his career. Debilitating drug addiction and accusations of Nazi-sympathizing threatened to sink his earning potential, so it was a no-brainer for him to appear on Bing Crosby's Merrie Olde Christmas. Crosby was a crooner and golden age Hollywood icon and seemed like a means to the end because, as Bowie said later, “my mom likes him.” The promise by producers to promote the video for Bowie's single Heroes, fitting as poorly as it did in the middle of a holiday special, certainly didn't hurt either. The special starred Crosby, his actual family, and stars of the day like the model Twiggy, who my mother has still not forgiven for coming along and making curvy, busty figures unpopular. So Bing Crosby and David Bowie. On paper, it made no sense. But in reality…it made even less sense. A negative amount of sense, if that's mathematically possible. I mean, just look at this juxtaposition. You can see the two together on the Vodacast app… Bowie arrived in a mink coat, an earring, and bright red lipstick….to appear alongside Bing Crosby. Bowie agreed to producers' demands to tone his look down, but asked/begged the producers if there was anything else, anything at all, he could sing, letting them know in no uncertain terms that he hated the song. "Ian Fraser, who co-wrote the 'Peace on Earth' portion, told The Washington Post in 2006. 'We didn't know quite what to do.' Instead of panicking, he and two other men working on the special — Buz Kohan and Larry Grossman — hunkered down at a piano in the studio basement and spent 75 minutes working up the tune. Ever professionals, Bowie and Crosby perfected the new song in less than an hour." It was that professionalism that actually brought the men together. According to Crosby's daughter, Mary, who was 18 at the time and a big Bowie fan, "Eventually, Dad realized David was this amazing musician, and David realized Dad was an amazing musician. You could see them both collectively relax and then magic was made." Bonus fact: Mary went on to become an actress, starring in the hit TV show Dallas, but she isn't the only thespian the Crosby legacy produced. Bing's granddaughter Denise will always have a place in my heart as Tasha Yar, first chief of security on the Enterprise D and if you don't know what I'm talking about, maybe *you're* not cool enough to sit with *us* at lunch. The special was recorded in mid-September, but Crosby would not see it released. He died of a massive heart attack after a day of golfing in mid-October, so the special was aired posthumously at the end of November in the U.S. and on Christmas Eve in England. Bizarrely, The single proved to be one of Bowie's fastest-selling singles, selling over 250,000 copies within its first month and being certified silver by the British Phonographic Industry one month after its release. And what does it say about me that I had to do a second take, beause I read it as British Pornographic Industry. They certify very different records. One thing that helped propel that success was the fledgeling Music Television network, which in its original primitive state actually played music videos. When it launched in 1981, there weren't really enough videos to fill up an entire channel, so they played what they had, including the 'Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy' clip, a lot. This prompted RCA to issue an official release in 1982 with the arbitrary single B-side of "Fantastic Voyage" from The Lodger album. Bowie was annoyed with that move, contributing to his departure from the label soon after. Still, it was a high-charting single for Bowie in the post-Scary Monsters era, at least until Let's Dance came out three months later. And that's…So the question was “Do they know it's Christmas?”. Since Ethiopia is ⅔ Christian, yes. I'd go out on a limb and say even the ⅓ that's Muslim knows. But the important thing is that 100% of the royalties go to the cause, and that figure sits north of $250 million. Among the luminary names involved was a pre-beard George Michaels. This was in his Wham days when he also recorded the song you're hearing now. Recognize it? To anyone who just lost Whamageddon… [sfx laughter] Worth it. Just passing it on after Red from Overly Sarcastic took me out during a video last year. For everyone else, as the nearest Gen-X'er. Remember…Thanks..

The spirit of Christmas isn't captured by "Jingle Bells" or "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus." We hear the spirit of Christmas in the song Mary lifted to God as she celebrated the gift of the Savior in her womb. We hear it in the words Zechariah sang after his wife, Elizabeth, gave birth to their long-awaited and God-given son, John the Baptist. And we hear it especially in the song the angels sang at Jesus' birth, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” This Advent series encourages us to stop and listen to "The Songs of Christmas." Today's message is "THE ANGEL'S SONG" and comes from Luke 2:8-14. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rittman-grace/message

Welcome to episode 37 of Holly Jolly X'masu! In this episode, I talk about the 1982 album, “Non Stop! Christmas,” by Pochettes. As I mentioned in the episode, I didn't know what to expect when I got this. Having worked with an airbrush for several years in high school and college, I liked the cover. I was hoping for a bit more Disco, but I wasn't entirely displeased overall. I'm sure not everything on the album will appeal to everyone, but I'm hoping each of you listeners enjoys at least some of what's on it. While most of the songs in the medley are standards, here's the full list in case you missed any: Jingle Bells (0:23) 2. Hark! The Herald Angels Sing (0:33) 3. Joy To The World (0:06) 4. The Twelve Days Of Christmas (0:26) 5. Sleigh Ride (0:15) 6. Jingle Bell Rock (0:29) 7. Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer (0:29) 8. Winter Wonderland (0:30) 9. Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town (0:45) 10. Frosty The Snowman (0:44) 11. Here Comes Santa Claus (0:23) 12. I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus (0:58) 13. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas (0:57) 14. Little Christmas Tree (0:58) 15. I'll Be Home For Christmas (0:58) 16. Little Drummer Boy (0:50) 17. Deck The Halls (0:30) 18. White Christmas (1:00) 19. The Christmas Song (0:46) 20. Oh Come All Ye Faithful (0:37) 21. You're All I Want For Christmas (0:58) 22. Silver Bells (0:22) 23. The First Noel (0:47) 24. We Wish You A Merry Christmas (0:29) I talked quite a bit about Stars On 45, and I mentioned Holly & the Ivy's “Christmas on 45.” Here are links to videos for them. If you were alive in the early 80s, these should bring back some hopefully fond memories. Stars On 45 – “Stars On 45” (Original Single Version) Stars On 45 – “Stars On 45” (Original 12-Inch Version) Holly & The Ivy's – “Christmas On 45” Thanks for listening, and I hope you had some fun with this episode. Join me back here on Christmas Day for some top quality, genuine Disco from the height of the Disco Era, as I talk about the absolutely groovy 1978 album, “Snow Flakes,” by The Paradise Garage. I guarantee, you'll dig it! As always, any feedback on this episode would be appreciated.

Welcome to the LoDown, a podcast exploring the voices in and outside the entertainment industry and hosted by Lois Robbins. How many of us got through the deepest, darkest moments of the quarantine with the help of Schitt's Creek? The characters and stories were the perfect comic relief and warm-hearted fun for the months-long period many of us experienced (often accompanied by solitude and contemplation). On this episode of the LoDown, Lois speaks with the beloved Karen Robinson. Many of us met Karen in this darling television series playing the role of Ronnie Lee - the no-bullsh*t, straight talking contractor and city councilwoman. Between conversations about swimming with whales and singing “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus,” Lois and Karen get right into it. We learn about the toughest theater role Karen has ever played: The Love Boat (a prequel to Othello). We also hear Karen share one of her greatest professional challenges and, of course, we hear about the joys she experienced playing Ronnie Lee in Schitt's Creek. The conversation doesn't stop there and it's filled with deep-hearted laughs, the deliciousness of oxtail stew, and how to approach life with love and not fear. This is your winter salve for any holiday stress in your life.

We hear it in the words Zechariah sang after his wife, Elizabeth, gave birth to their long-awaited and God-given son, John the Baptist. And we hear it especially in the song the angels sang at Jesus' birth, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” This Advent series encourages us to stop and listen to "The Songs of Christmas." Today's sermon is "GOD'S GREAT REVERSAL" and comes form Luke 1:46-55. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/rittman-grace/message

When singer Eddie Cantor performed "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" near the end of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in 1936, people knew it was a hit because of the amount of sheet music sold. Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" returned to the charts so regularly in the years following its initial release in 1942 that he followed it up in 1945 with a similar sentiment in "I'll Be Home for Christmas." Christmas music and the charts have a long history together. Legend has it that Phil Spector, who made his fame producing hit singles, recorded, A Christmas Present for You with Darlene Love, The Ronettes, The Shirelles and more because he thought that Billboard's newly created Holiday album chart gave him his best chance of album success. Writer, critic, and chart historian Chris Molanphy tracks not only how songs perform on the charts but how they work, and as he illustrated last season in an episode of his podcast "The Hit Parade" at Slate.com, changes in chart rules helped Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas" reach number one on the Hot 100 in 2019, 25 years after the song's release. This week I talk to Chris about Christmas music and the charts, and particularly how Billboard factoring streaming into chart positions opened the door for decades-old Christmas favorites to return to the charts and, in many cases, to make the charts for the first time. This week's show also includes a first listen to "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" from the upcoming A Holly Dolly Christmas by Dolly Parton.

Ho, ho, holy crap. Back in a long ago era where America actually had manufacturing jobs, Harry is a worker at the Jolly Dreams toy factory. As a youth, Harry experienced a real life version of the song "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus," and like the protagonist of the song, Harry's experience left him only a few steps from deranged. Those few steps happened as his co-workers took advantage of him, and his company pretended to give toys to sick children. In a mostly (except for a couple of murders) good natured move, Harry dresses like Santa and delivers toys to good children, dirt to bad children, and the occasional axe to the head of someone who in all likelihood deserves it. So smelt yourself some toy soldiers, superglue on that beard, and load yourself into the painted up creep-van that is...Christmas Evil.

Ahhhh, the sounds of Christmas…. the ubiquitous Salvation Army Santa outside of Walmarts and Best Buys with that annoying little bell clanging till you give him a buck just to make him stop, but he never does... The bustle of shoppers and imaginary tinkling of Silver Bells, the very real laughter and shooshing of ice skaters in Rockefeller Center... The carols and classic songs in all the movies we binge watch leading up to the big day to help us get in the Christmas spirit… Halloween is barely over before the malls and shopping centers and music on hold cranks up the endless loop of Winter Wonderland, I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus, and Frosty the Snowman, and, depending on your particular childhood memories of this holiday and how it played out in your house, this is either really awesome or a slow merciless death akin to Chinese water torture that FINALLY stops dripping on Christmas Day. But does the world really need ANOTHER Christmas song? Aren’t there enough already? Certainly no one needs another BAD song about Christmas, but what if, just maybe…. YOU wound up penning a Silent Night or O Come, All Ye Faithful, or Tender Tennessee Christmas that actually became part of the sacred canon of Christmas tunes? This week, John Chisum encourages you to believe in a Christmas miracle one more time and step up to write the songs only you can write.

This week, we're celebrating a very special birthday for a very special podcast boy. Ian is turning three decades old this week! And so is A Very Special Christmas, the 1987 holiday charity album that along with debuting "Christmas in Hollis", featured the two songs that Ian inexplicably chose for this week's episode. We listen to "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" by John Cougar Mellencamp and "Santa Baby" by Madonna because... well, it's birthday boy's choice.
Greg wants to say hi to everyone. Alison still can't hear the different between "Don" and "Dawn" but has some science in the form of something called the "cot-caught merger" as backup.

Track 07 - I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
Danielle LoPresti and Alicia Champion are on the show discussing their new lesbian-family themed holiday music video "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus". The video stars real life couple, Danielle and Alicia, and their four year old fost-adopt son Xander Lucian.
