Mine too. What a beautiful song.

I have a mix CD of these that I threw on not long ago (mainly to hear "Someday at Christmas") and really enjoyed "Reach Down." Such beautiful lyrics. And Eddie is a great backup singer.

I adore that vinyl.
did you know those songs beforehand? I'd certainly feel differently if I hadn't, but I thought those were widespread/well known.
yeah, i have the dvd and boots, but the mixes in the vinyl are great, its really nice to have those two in that condition.

for some reason I always thought Strangest Tribe was a WMA-like attack on white folks. probably because I thought he said "follow the anglo lie". something else too but I can't remember what.

It is always seems the week before christmas that I pull out all the X-mas single for the iphone. I must say Strangest Tribe is such a good morning song. When your freezing your ass off in 20 degree weather waiting for the car to warm up. They need eventually play this, right?

Shattered is awful and 99 Problems isn't as good as I thought it might be. Worst X-Mas single in a long time.

Never liked Shattered to begin with, and this one is just horrendous. 99 Problems is decent. WMA bassline in there?

Like most years, its a one and done listen.

Disagree.

99 Problems isn't as good as it could have been but I'm just glad I finally have a good recording. I'm enjoying Shattered as the joke that it's supposed to be, but then again I love Julie Andrews.

The worst x-mas singles are the ones that recycle music we already have access to.
