Costello goes Christmas, with the help of hand puppets

| 1 Comment | No TrackBacks
I've noted in the past that Elvis Costello has mostly resisted Christmas songs except for his co-write with the Chieftains, "The St. Stephen's Day Murders." He's also on record as having performed "Baby It's Cold Outside" with Anne Sophie Von Otter, though that was a live performance and no recording is known to exist. Well, here's an Elvis Costello Christmas medley for you all, endorsed by the man himself as I found it on his website:

 

UPDATE: On Dec. 21, 2010, Costello performed solo in Chicago, playing "The St. Stephen's Day Murders" and also "Winter Song" by Alan Hull.

This is quite good, but I like even more the same puppets doing the song "Coldplay Christmas" as at this url:

the line about all the snow being yellow was obvious but so clever! Not to mention sweekping the snow off the streets they used to own.....
