That's the list of people I hope to never again hear singing Christmas music. NPR just played his dreary Christmas offering again. I think it's something they do, like Stamburg's cranberry relish thing and David Sedaris giving Christmas his elf job. You can add them to lists of things I don't need to hear again.
On the other hand, I never get tired of Eudora Welty's, A Worn Path, the best Christmas story I know.
I prefer Sedaris on his audio book "Holidays on Ice," if only because it includes all the words NPR won't broadcast. And it's the whole thing; I'm tired of NPR keeping the "tradition" alive by playing 5 minutes of the thing and calling it the whole.
ReplyDeleteI do miss the music in the NPR version on the audiobook, though.....
