We Three KingsI am so not a fan of holiday music - especially xmas music. But g-d, when it's done right, even the traditional stuff can be a treat.
Those correctly done songs are few and far between and I suppose 'done right' or 'done correctly' is relative. I truly don't think there are enough good takes to even make up one full album (Alison Moyet's "The Coventry Carol" is a great song, but that's the only one I can think of off the top o'my head).
So I present to you, Blondie doing their version of "We Three Kings".
You can download it for free from their website, which I hyperlinked above.
I think I like this version, not so much for the content, but the execution. How is this not Blondie, circa Plastic Letters? It is so much more raw than stuff they've done recently - and by recently, I mean the last 25 years.
I also see on their site that they have a new disk coming in 2010. Yayyyy. I'm so hoping it is in this same vein. I mean, not holiday music, but their early style.
Yeah, I know most of you don't care about this - so this is mostly a post for Jon.
Song by: Blondie

For whatever reason, I cannot download this at home on my iMac. Weird.
