Description
In some ways this song is a story similar to Charles Dickens' "Christmas Carol". A man re-examines his life's worth and comes up empty handed. Merry Christmas to all... are we allowed to say that on this site???!!! 04.15.05

Lyrics
hopefully forthcoming if our lyricist herr can ever remember what he was singing. death and re-birth can sometimes fry the memory.

nice
Good song reminds me of the velevet underground the vocals are a
little drowned out by the muddiness although the lyrics I hear make
me want to listen again until I can understand them all good vocal
style

Liked It
From the opening blues riff and the easy going vocal it was easy to
start getting into this song. Kicking it up a notch with the electric
guitar gave it momentum and the extra percussion made me start to
move around in my chair. Lyrics were hard to pick up as a whole but
individual lines gave you something to hang the rhythm on. Voice as a
whole was nice to listen to.

shiny happy
I remember this one... this is a re-release... I think I originally said
this one was nice and loose like a cheap hooker. Anyway, it still
sounds great. Dead people, yeah yeah! Wait! Was that Santa line
in there before? Is this a re-recorded release? Re-performed? I'll
have to listen to the one I downloaded before...

better and better
Extra credits comes your way, not because it's christmas, but because it's well deserved!

Many influences comes to mind listening to this one. The production and recording seems clearer and well blended together.

maybe the best one yet guys
Also an interesting post in light of the "Biggest issue" thread in that
this "nice and loose cheap hooker" shows how raw power and emotion
trump precise and plastic every time.

Nice choice in Death of Marat for song art too.

Merry Christmas to you guys.

Strong vocals and lyric.
