I had really wanted to wait before putting this song up, but I just can't help it. After talking about how I'd always listen to Christmas music on a local radio station all night long when I couldn't fall asleep on Christmas Eve, it sparked my memory that it was then when I first heard this song. It is my favorite Christmas song because it is so new wave and not your typical sound for the year. I listen to it over and over every year and used to have all of the words memorized. So since I'm officially in the holiday spirit, I give you my favorite Christmas song; The Waitresses "Christmas Wrapping". Released in 1981, Patty Donahue's vocals are reminiscent of Debbie Harry's "Rapture" rap-like flow and the funky guitars and saxophones complete this classic tune. Every time I hear it I'm transported to a snow filled town! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
