Desmond Dekker – Get up Edina
Toots and the Maytals – Sweet and dandy
Snow Foolin’
Dec 27
It’s a few weeks into December, when a sudden snowstorm brings out the winter hijinks that cute, cuddly animated forest creatures are known for. They watch a bouncing snowball and sing a few rounds of jingle bells, then it’s back to the nest, to watch football.
Listen my children and you shall hear, the most fabulous song for this time of year. Of Martians and children and Santa Claus too, come sing along, we’re talking to you!
In this condensed version of the infamous holiday classic, the children of Mars are restless, and the leader means to do something about it! A crinkly, wizened sage suggests that their planet too could use some good cheer, so an expedition is sent to earth to bag a fat man in a red suit, and bring him to live on the red planet. Once Santa and two earth kids are brought to Mars, things don’t go quite as the leaders planned. Full of old-fashioned holiday cheer, cheesy music, terrible special effects and even worse acting.
