Today I bring two different versions of "White Christmas," one by the Pipettes and the Flaming Lips. The Pipettes version is fantastic, emphasized with gorgeous vocal harmonies and a wonderful upbeat arrangement. It's short and sweet. The Flaming Lips version on the other hand, while interesting and untraditional, it sounds like its being sung by a bad Kermit imitator. I love Wayne, I really do, but this just isn't his finest hour. I've found a video of the song being performed live during 1999, and it sounds a little better there, performed on an actual megaphone. Maybe if you can shake the Kermit thing...but I just can't. Maybe I'll think of it as a forgotten song from the Muppet Christmas Carol. It's been far too long since I've seen that.

awesome blog! :) I added you to my links, hope you don't mind.
Thanks for the Pipettes song!
Also, I found your blog because I was trying to find the album art for Nice's self-titled album. I actually have the album on my computer if you want me to send it to you. It's pretty great.
I don't know much about them besides the fact that Randall Lee was in it; he's also associated with the Cannanes and Ashtray Boy, which are both bands worth checking out.
Anyway, my email address is glennie11 at yahoo dot com if you want the album. Just make sure there's nothing about penis enlargement or the fifty billion dollars I won in the Nigerian lottery in the subject line so I don't mistake it for spam.
oh yeah, keep 'em coming, those saucy x-mas tunes! let it snow, let it snow!
Awesome. thanks for D/L's!
So far it seems that generic Cialis works better and has more lasting effects than other drugs used against impotence, which makes this particular drug more appealing. If you are in need of a drug that can help you get easy, quicker and long lasting erections then cialis is the answer. People looking for cheaper alternatives can go for generic cialis but only when you are sure of the pharmacy. http://www.buy-cialis-online-now.com
