A Very Merry Comeback Kid Christmas

A favourite customer of CBK swung by this afternoon armed with way too much Christmas spirit and an interesting mix tape. It was a Christmas Mix Tape Special. And it's very special. Be scared customers - we may just be playing this in store in the lead up to JC's big day. Here are some of our favourite Christmas tracks of all time. And when I say "favourite" I actually mean, "How nice. Christmas. Hmmm. Christmas songs. How novel. How scary. How wrong." So yeah, enjoy:

Dean Martin Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!
Who came up with the title of that song? Me? It's so lame. Dear Dean, if it snows in Melbourne on Christmas day I'll send you some baked koala and eucalypt cake; our national dishes.

Gary Glitter Another Rock And Roll Christmas
Leave it to everyone's favourite creep to release the lamest Christmas song to date. And 99% of them are lame so that's really saying something. This song should've been called, "Don't Let Me Babysit Your Kids This Christmas".

Wham! Last Christmas
Last Christmas I prayed I'd never hear this song again. Sigh.

Paul McCartney & Wings Wonderful Christmas Time
If you got REALLY drunk it could sound like a song by Animal Collective that's been remixed by The Drums and featuring vocals from Discovery. REALLY, REALLY drunk. Just saying.

Mariah Carey All I Want for Christmas is You
That's honest. I'm not sure they have a gift box in my size but I'll look into it babe. See you on the 25th! What was your address again?

Sorry about that,
Comeback Kid
