“The Last White Christmas” May Be The Last Christmas Song You’ll Ever Need To Hear

Thankfully, someone sent along an appropriately themed track from the recently released Zero: A Martin Hannett Story 1979-1991. If you love songs that are ostensibly about Christmas–but would never, ever get played at a Christmas party–then this one’s for you:
