Ah, but can you imagine copulating with Bo Derek to it?

This song is so ace that even Bob Seger couldn't ruin it!

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Monday, 27 December 2004 20:19 (twenty years ago)

Has he attempted it?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 27 December 2004 20:22 (twenty years ago)

Yes. It's on the A Very Special Christmas compilation that gets played EVERY YEAR at my household.

I'm partial to the Bing'n'Bowie rendition, m'self.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 27 December 2004 20:31 (twenty years ago)

I like the Jimi Hendrix version and the Joan Jett version.

The Destiny's Child rendition sucks balls.

even the fact it was used to sell overpriced scarves can't hurt the majesty of low's version.

untouchable classic

― Bumfluff, Monday, 27 December 2004 23:29 (twenty years ago)

Especially when done by Low

Can be mawkishly awful. Can be spellbinding. I'd like a Schneider TM version...

there was a version by the dandy warhols... no comment...
and i just heard an excellent version (mixing the start with that of the bolero) by prin' la lá, a group of pre-teen spanish girls that play kindergarten psychedelia à la langley schools music project. i don't know if it can be on soulseek, but it's great.

Mark Kozelek did this at a live show years ago a few days before christmas. RHP style. Made my gf now wife cry. CLASSIC

― Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Wednesday, 29 December 2004 13:09 (twenty years ago)

anyone have Lows version that they can post?

― Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Wednesday, 29 December 2004 13:16 (twenty years ago)

I like that rude rocksteady tune called "Wreck A Buddy" that rips off the tune to this.

JESSICA SIMPSON YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SING THIS SONG EVER AGAIN.

I recently saw a rockabilly-ish act called Tijuana Hercules try this one out live: fun.

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 29 December 2004 16:05 (twenty years ago)

Classic; I like it by the Vince Guaraldi Trio.

(I searched ILM for "little drummer boy" a few days before Christmas and Chris V, you must have touted that live RHP version of it in 10 different threads haha)

― W i l l (common_person), Wednesday, 29 December 2004 16:12 (twenty years ago)

thats because it was a memorable moment in my life....how boring huh. ;)

― Big Baby Bingo (Chris V), Wednesday, 29 December 2004 16:13 (twenty years ago)

the flaming lips do a badass version of this on the providing needles for your balloons ep

Weird. Every year I have a fight with myself over which is the worst xmas song ever -- this, or "the 12 Days of Christmas". This year, it was neither -- "Jingle Bell Rock" got played on the office intercom about 5 times a day, and forced its way to the top of the list.
