Good King Wenceslas -The Philadelphia Brass Ensemble (1967)
I’ve always liked King Wenceslas. He seems good.
Shortsongs wishes all a Merry Holiday full of jingles, jangles and fruitcake.

Sad Quick Christmas Song - Danny Pudi (2010)
From Community’s phenomenal stop-motion musical Christmas Special. The episode takes all the best (and some of the worst) elements of all those infamous dubiously animated seasonal specials and turns it into a modern-day fable of holiday psychosis. Make sure you watch it if you haven’t already.
Here, Abed (Danny Pudi) is lamenting over the disillusionment he feels around his friends when they don’t understand his wintry stop-motion visions. Ken Jeong chimes in as the Chang-Snowman.
Happy Holidays!!

Christmas is A-Comin’ - Leadbelly (1941)
Well folks, it’s that time of year again. And who better to celebrate it with than everyone’s favorite ex-con bluesman Huddie Ledbetter.
We’ve covered him in an earlier post singing to the little children of the 1940s. Let’s hope that all of our Xmas celebrations are as jumpin’ as the one Huddie describes here.
