The eighth day of Hot Roxmas



The Hip Replacements is the nom du rock of occasional reader/commenter dgstan (some of you might also remember him as Nyquil Driver). The picture above is another band called "The Replacements", who this song "Christmas Is A Special Time Of Year" reminds me of. It sounds like one of their early tunes like "Treatment Bound", or maybe another song that didn't make the cut at the 'mats Hootenanny.

The first sounds you hear on the mp3 are a snippet of those other Replacements doing "White Christmas", because this recording was pulled directly from my 1999 epic holiday mix "When You Stop Believing in Santa Claus, You Start Receiving Clothes For Christmas", and is the first a series of Holiday Songs By People I Know. Christmas is that special time of year when we should all buy ourselves little gifts, in multiples of six.

That's some pretty heady company I'm keeping. Thanks for thinking of me!
