The Pointed Sticks: Xmas Time Again/Power-Pop Santa single



This was offered as a free download on the Pointed Sticks site a while back. What we've got here is two new-ish (2008?) P.S. tracks, which really wave the power-pop flag without getting all wussy about it! The lyrics to "Power-Pop Santa" are both clever and pretty in-jokey ("And the Methadones get whatever Santa brings them") while the tune is sure to dance in your head like visions of sugar plums. "Xmas Time Again" is similarly sweet and has more of a Spector-ish feel.








Merry Christmas (or whatever!), see you guys on Boxing day!

If you've only joined us this year, or are suffering from premature memory loss, please re-vist MRML's Holiday Hang-Over songs HERE.

Let us know what you think of this Pointed Sticks Christmas gift in the COMMENTS section (which is where you'll find the Xmas Time Again/Power-Pop Santa single link)

    I'm a sucker for a good christmas song. Heck, i'm a sucker for plenty of bad christmas songs. And power-pop (of the non-wussy variety) to boot? Woo-hoo.

    Thanks for these, and all the songs you've posted. My music knowledge and collection are better for them.

    Merry Christmas.
