A Billy Idol Christmas

I heard that Billy Idol performed at the recent Lollapalooza corporate rock fest. For the longest time I’ve had an idea for him. I should have gone to the concert on the 100 degree Sunday and pitched it -- The Billy Idol Christmas Album.

If ever there was someone who captures the true spirit of the holiday -- which is to say the crass commercialism and cheese factor -- it’s Idol.

As it is almost being August, there’s still time for him to have it in stores before Thanksgiving. I mean, come on, it’s a freaking Billy Idol album. How hard can that be to record?

Besides, all he has to do is adapt his old tunes -- they work perfectly. Here’s the track list:

1. Claus Without A Face

2. Dancing With My Elves

3. White Christmas (Hey little sister, who’s your Santa Claus?)

4. Hot In the Chimney

5. Rebel Yule

6. To Be A Reindeer

7. Flesh for Fat Santa

8. Mony Mony (eggnog mix)


You would think Weird Al woulda done this by now.
