yulebabe.jpgIf that's Joel on the back cover, he gives off the vibe of being a lounge singer. But don't worry, this 2005 disc isn't a Richard Cheese thing, just a straight-out old-school novelty album full of parodies, like the title song, which you probably already figured out is the Sonny & Cher hit. Rock fans will especially be interested in the holiday parodies of Green Day's "Boulevard of Broken Dreams," reimagined as "Shopping Mall of Broken Dreams," Violent Femmes' "Blister In the Sun" with the blister swapped for "Christmas," and Barenaked Ladies' "If I Had $1,000,000," retitled "If I Had a Secret Santa." Hanukkah Alert for "That's A Menorah," formerly "That's Amore." Some originals keep the hijinks going, like the polka "Criminy Cripes, It's Christmas," "A Harry Potter Christmas," "I'm Your Snowman Baby," "Ring-a-Ding-Ding, It's Santa" and "Merry Tourette's Christmas," which gets censored when the bad parts come in. Seinfeld and hockey fans will especially like "O Festivus," set to the Canadian national anthem.
