mnmlist: Waits for Christmas
Wonderfully pointless, but intriguing just the same.
There is a plan afoot to get Tom Waits’ ‘Christmas Card from a Hooker in Minneapolis’ to No. 1 in Ireland for Christmas. (You can hear the divine Neko Case version in my Scarves & Gloves mix).
So, if you can purchase from an Irish download site, why not go for it? It’s a very good track. While you’re there, download ‘Martha’ and ‘Down In The Hole’ (Theme from Season 2 of the fantastic The Wire).
