Last Christmas

[jmc_bks]

Dear Twangy Teenager:

Please fire the advisors or producers or managers who told you that you ought to cover Last Christmas.

George Michael and Wham! own that song. Your nasal soprano does not match GM's breathy falsetto. And the countryish music is inappropriate.

Please to not be destroying anymore Christmas pop classics. You are ruining what little nostalgia and holiday spirit I've managed to dredge up.

Thanks muchly,
jmc

Oh dear goddess, who's covering "Last Christmas"???

I just checked Google to see who's covering it. But it turns out that +30 singers have (and that's just counting the professional bands/singers)! I think the one I heard was Taylor Swift.

For something scary, go to www.last-christmas.com to see and hear many, many other versions.

Amen!

I feel the same way about KT Tunstall doing Christmas Baby Please Come Home. That song belongs to U2. And I like KT ~ I just like U2 better :-)

Oh! I like KT Tunstall...but no, she shouldn't be singing that song.
