Dr. Demento Presents: Greatest Christmas Novelty CD
Amazon.com
The title might be immodest, but it’s accurate. Just about every holiday song parody and comedy sketch you can imagine is jimmied onto this hilarious, sprawling collection. While you’ll find a smattering of well-known Christmas wackiness (including “Grandma Got Run over by a Reindeer” and the Singing Dogs’ “Jingle Bells”), the Doctor’s specialty is unearthing the obscure, such as Wild Man Fischer’s weirder-than-weird “I Am a Christmas Tree.” You’ll never listen to “The 12 Days of Christmas” quite the same way after hearing the spins put on the tale by both Allan Sherman and Bob and Doug McKenzie, and you’re likely to check your Christmas cookie for “special ingredients” after hearing Cheech & Chong’s “Santa Claus and His Old Lady.” –David Sprague

When Christmastime comes, I usually hide all the holiday CDs because they suck. Not this one, though. It will make to laugh and squirt burning hot coffee out of your nose.

This is awsome here is how one of the songs goes: on the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me a Japanise trandishta radio…..did you love my great voice?

Nice collection, but I’ve heard many of the songs on other albums (which I already have).

I honestly bought this CD for one song and that was “all I want for x-mas is a hippotamus”. I love that song and Alvin and the Chipmunks. For me the rest of the songs sucked and they arent worth anything to me. But I couldnt find the song I wanted as a single at the time. Just make sure that you read the songs included list before you buy.
