| Post subject: | Xmas songs by rock bands, help... |
Im trying to make a cd for someone and I was wondering if you all could give me some suggestions on Original or Covers of Christmas songs by rock bands. For instance everything from Let me Sleep and Dont believe in Christmas by Pearl Jam, I wont be home for Christmas by Blink 182, Blue Christmas by Bright Eyes, it doesnt matter, it can even be by an older band, just hoping you all could help me out. Thanks. |

Christmas - The Who Christmas - Tom Petty Johnny Cash's Christmas album Ring Them Bells - Layne Staley with Nancy & Ann Wilson Christmas At The Zoo - Flaming Lips Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis - Tom Waits Christmas Blues - Canned Heat Christmas Card - Jimmy Eat World |

there's a couple bad religion christmas carols floating around out there if you're persistent, though their intent is more mockery than anything. |

thank guys! mockery is fine, everything concerning Xmas fits in...Vandals were highly mockery as well... yeah, the sonics cover is another idea...and I'll look for bowie & crosbie, and weezer...maybe Spina Tap is al ittle bit over the top for Xmas  
they don't have to be hard rock songs, when I use the word rock I just mean "No Fuckin' Mariah Carey"
...and "Not darn Darkness crap"... |
