If You Are Going To Cover A Hit Song - Make it Count
The Lumineers burst on the "We're tired of the same old crap cause we got somethin' to say" music scene in 2012 with a debut self titled studio record with a song entitled HO HEY! that stayed No. 1 on Billboard for eighteen weeks. Usher in the new rising redhead Missy Modell. Generally, covers don't go over well. But this new, fresh singer took this great little tune and turned it into a homage to Santa. The chorus - I'm in love with you / You're in love with me / My Santa - is a great play on the original lyric. In total, the tune is a great take on Christmas while covering one of the best tunes to come from a real, live band in recent years.
I assume The Lumineers support this ironic tribute to the fat man. I certainly hope so.
