    Thank you for all these songs. I can’t wait to listen to them all.
    And a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you! You’ve really contributed a lot of amazing songs to my iPod last year.

    Thanks for these songs – and all of the other ones that you post -

    I especially like ‘The Christians and the Pagens’ tune – With all of the holiday rhetoric about displays and government and Happy Holidays vs Merry Christmas, this song really bridges the gap in a very nice way.

    Happy Holidays, Republicans!

    p.s. – please don’t burn me – i’m not a witch…but I float like brown gravy! (apologies to Monte Python…)
