Good sensibility, right in the emotion.

I take it back, this song is putrid:  lyrics intelligible only at their most banal moments, lifeless and droning, way over long and underproduced, this cut just plain sucks.   I'm downgrading it from my original "3".

That's about five seconds too long to be thinking about Kansas.

However, I have nothing to say about this tune apart from its a solid 5. . . goes nowhere, does nothing much, inoffensive, unremarkable. . . not sure why stuff like this is on RP - RP should always be about outstanding. . . and this is far from outstanding.

Hello RP-Listeners!

I wish all of you "MERRY CHRISTMAS",
wherever you are - whoever you wanna be!

Christmas is a sweet-naive tradition -
not a religious event! 

I like it anyway!

Still - I hope Bill takes the chance
to rock the christmas-tree to pieces tonight!

"Happy Christmas
your "BAD SANTA",
aka STINGRAY

PS
Sermon of the day (promise: I'm serious):

The "Three Wise Men" - Melchior, Balthasar + Caspar
are buried in a golden sarcophage in"our" dome, the famous 
"Cologne dome" - the third highest church-building
in the world - right in the very centre of town, next to the Rhine.
A gothic building of extra-class!

If I wait, long enough now, will the song be done?

This is another one of those RP songs that I probably won't rush to amazon to buy the CD, but will recognize and remember fondly.
