The Baby Jesus Wants to Rock (Rock!)

Thoughts upon hearing "Oh Come All Ye Faithful" on the radio this morning:

• Damn it, I've been trying to avoid Christmas songs.
• But this shower radio is so hard to tune, it's not really worth changing channels.
• Oh well, it's Christmas day and I've done a pretty good job so far, I guess there's not much I can do.
• Hey, this is actually rocking out pretty hard.
• You know, I never noticed how much this song sounds like "We're Not Gonna Take It."

Thoughts upon getting out of the shower, looking up the two songs to compare them, and discovering that I had been listening to this:

• . . .
  
• Twisted Sister got back together to record a Christmas album?
• . . .
• . . .
  
• Awesome.
• Good to see Dee Snider still looks exactly like Sarah Jessica Parker.
• With a little more make-up, he'd be a dead-ringer for Moulin Rouge-era Christina Aguilera.
• Hey J.J. French, I'm not sure grinding up on the guy's wife is really in the Christmas spirit.
• Although he seems to be taking it pretty well.
• Yeah, let him play the drums, it'll make him feel better.
  
• Oh good, a happy ending. You see, chubby newlywed guy, it is a wonderful life.
  

Now all we need is for Eddie Van Halen and David Lee Roth to put aside their differences (again) and crank out a 2-disc Hanukkah box set in time for next year.
