Hampsterdance Christmas, Hampton the Hampster (Koch)

There's nothing sadder than a fad that's run its course. (Apologies if you're still greeting people with "Wassup!") The Hampsterdance craze, once a staple of workplaces everywhere, or at least those with Internet access, has come and gone, but the fact that they managed to sell some copies of the original tune encouraged them to push their luck with this 2001 single. It's not actually terrible -- unless you're sick of the whole Hampsterdance schtick -- just a couple of carols, "Jingle Bells" and "Deck the Halls," done in the Hampster beat with Hampster flourishes and augmented with Chipmunks vocals. Coming soon: "A Nigerian Investment Opportunity Christmas" and "Sleighride With Sircam": "I send you this Christmas card in order to have your advice."
