If your name isn't Gene Autry - and it's not - you should not be allowed to sing Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and line your pockets. Especially if you go by the name Babyface.
In a rare moment of weakness, The Outpost Music Guild has given out one of its highest ratings to a Christmas melody sung by a modern recording artist. The OMG gives a coveted 3-1/2 Mangers to Barenaked Ladies for their recording of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen. We like it. Four Mangers would have been awarded, but Sarah McLachlan adds her vocals to the effort. While we have nothing to critique in the quality of her voice, our conservative soul balks a bit at anyone involved with Lilith Fair.

Posted by: stan at December 16, 2004 08:34 PMYou know, Stan, I have. I wish I could share your opinion. You're more generous. I couldn't shake the feeling that I was listening to a 15 year old trying to be cute. Which is ironic, given the fact that I like (and it's taking a lot for me to admit this) Madonna's "Santa Baby."
Posted by: Cathy at December 17, 2004 08:40 AMI prefer Ertha Kits original of "Santa Baby". I'm partial to that song anyway as tomorrow and Sunday I will spend 5 hours each day in the "Suit" down in the Hutchinson Mall just south of you. As good conservatives we can agree to disagree.
Posted by: Stan at December 17, 2004 12:47 PMThank you! I was wondering who sang Santa Baby - other than Madonna. I'll have to go look her Ms. Kits.
Working as Santa, huh? Is this some sort of community service sentence or do you just have a heart of gold? Hope it goes well.
I haven't been to the Hutch Mall in a while. Haven't been to Hutch in a while. We're a bit closer to Buffalo, so I do most of our routine shopping there.
Posted by: Cathy at December 17, 2004 07:34 PMWonderful typing job. I meant I'll have to go look up Ms. Kits - hopefully I'll find a CD before Christmas.
