Billy Idol Decides That 2006 Is A Nice Year For A Cover Of “White Christmas”
The holiday-record landscape is pretty crowded this year, but there’s one that we kind of want to hear: Billy Idol’s Happy Holidays, which is the peroxided punker’s homage to “the original, joyful nature of the season.” (Which means no “Yellin’ At The Xmas Tree.”) In this clip, Idol and his ever-present sneer try and make their way through a straight-up rendition of the old chestnut “White Christmas,” and the clip’s replete with chyroned snow and moments when Idol looks like he’s about to crack up and launch into “Cradle Of Love.”
