So glad that John Miles is getting the Tigersushi treatment... The re-mixer did a GENIUS job of editing out the really crappy part of this song (and if you know the original, it IS crappy!) and just leaving in the good stuff.

Tue. 12/18/07 9:49am Hatch:

How's everybody doing today? Sick of the Christmas season yet? I sure am.

Tue. 12/18/07 9:55am Mike:

I'm sick of having to walk on the road because of sidewalks covered in four feet of snow. It's part of Christmas.
Enjoying the show, I probably owe knowing about Brian Harnetty to this very show and it's one of my favourites from the year.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:00am Hatch:

In New York all we've had so far is frozen slush.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:01am Lang:

Now, now grinchy goosey you mess with the Amazonians you take a risk! You could have taken the handmade pledge or just made some sad gingerbread raisin men to give as gifts...

Tue. 12/18/07 10:03am Hatch:

Bah humbug.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:04am lang:

Are there gonna be any hip hop/rap selections from this year Hatchling?

Tue. 12/18/07 10:09am suz:

yea i hate this holiday bullshit. makes me morose. thanks for complaining. love your show. esp this phinnish number.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:09am Hatch:

Perhaps!

Tue. 12/18/07 10:15am Hatch:

What's the worst Christmas gift you ever got? Once year I got an oven mitt.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:16am Bad Ronald:

Herpes!

Tue. 12/18/07 10:17am Hatch:

You did not get herpes for Christmas.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:18am Lang:

what is wrong with an oven mitt? Wait, was it that ugly cow one you used to have?

Tue. 12/18/07 10:18am Bad Ronald:

inadvertantly...

Tue. 12/18/07 10:19am Hatch:

I already had an oven mitt. Isn't one enough?

Tue. 12/18/07 10:19am Bad Ronald:

well you got two hands.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:21am Hatch:

How do you know I don't have a hook?

Tue. 12/18/07 10:22am ?:

Not really a present I got but when I was a kid I wanted one of those keyboards with the Wham demo and everything, and it was all I asked for until my parents convinced me it was too big for Santa's sleigh etc. So my second choice was a watch, which I ended up getting. For whatever reason my sister got the keyboard I was talked out of even though she didn't ask for it. I was forced to apologize to her for being so upset.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:23am Bad Ronald:

Than an oven mitt would be ideal!

Tue. 12/18/07 10:29am Parq:

Hatch have a hook? Well, he does give out fishing tips . . .

Tue. 12/18/07 10:31am Hatch:

I always wanted one of those kid-sized motorized cars to drive around the backyard. Never got one. A few years ago my dad apologized for being so cheap about it. If I remember correctly think he may have gotten teary-eyed.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:32am Hatch:

That's right Parq. I also have an eye patch.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:41am zoe:

Do you have a parrot on your shoulder as well?

Tue. 12/18/07 10:43am Parq:

What's a priate's favorite part of an opera? The arrrr-ria.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:44am matt bua:

"the franklin cover-up"

Tue. 12/18/07 10:58am Mike:

I just volunteered to participate in an office snowman-decorating contest on Friday. This is how much getting out of doing work is worth to me.

Tue. 12/18/07 10:59am V:

I think imma gonna cry now. what a sad beautiful song. Hope my boss man doesn't come over.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:01am chuck yatsuk:

????

Tue. 12/18/07 11:02am Matt:

I saw the trailer for Juno and almost threw up.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:06am Blue Superior:

worst xmas present....ex girlfriend gave me a copy of l.ron hubbards dianetics when all i really wanted was a doughnut and to stick closer to church oriented social activites ha! wfmu rocks

Tue. 12/18/07 11:11am Sean Daily:

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Tue. 12/18/07 11:16am lonnie:

juno looks like a wonderful, heart-warming, coming of age story and it puts the rose in my cheeks just thinking about how precious teen pregnancy can be, especially when accompanied by the humor and wit of a first-time writer. well..um..just stick to no country for old men. even seeing it a second time is a better time investment than other films have to offer.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:20am Wes:

Everything I hate about (modern American) Christmas can be wrapped up in those houses covered in lights that flash and dance in sync with crappy "transiberian orchestra" holiday songs.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:22am Matt:

Lonnie- I saw the trailer for Juno when I went to see No Country For Old Men. Needless to say, I was thrown for a loop!

Tue. 12/18/07 11:26am Briezy:

I made the huge mistake of seeing that Glass Candy movie, with that same ninny in the red hoodie who's in Juno. What a puss. The worst x-mas present I've gotten THIS year is a light switch cover. Man oh man.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:27am Hatch:

You got it this year? Did you get that for someone else? That is pretty bad.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:27am vicvic:

Can we talk about the best* x mas gift evva?
Really, too much negativity. ...

Tue. 12/18/07 11:28am Sally:

Merry Christmas everyone!
May all your dreams and wishes come true in the new year!!!!
Bless you all......

Tue. 12/18/07 11:28am Mike:

while we're being positive, hatch and everyone what do your favourite movies of the year lists look like?

Tue. 12/18/07 11:29am Briezy:

The lightswitch cover was given to me by a friend this year. Shee heehooo. It's ok, it's alright. You can't expect good presents from friends. Oh, uh, best Christmas present ever was a bike with a basket on the front.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:29am Rusty:

Happy Holidays!!!!!
It would be even happier for me if you would play more MOTORHEAD!!!!!

Tue. 12/18/07 11:29am mark:

Hatch, need more flow to the program, which is too choppy, with too many talk breaks, and too much noise like this horseshit (aptly named)

Tue. 12/18/07 11:30am jeanine:

yeah, I've hated that girl ever since I saw her in Hard Candy, where her performance actually made me feel sorry for the pedophile James Spader. That takes a lot.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:31am Briezy:

we see eye to eye, jeanine

Tue. 12/18/07 11:31am jeanine:

by james spader I of course mean patrick wilson. oops.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:34am lonnie:

Tue. 12/18/07 11:43am Mike:

I guess it's last year but it didn't have North American release til 07, but did anyone see This is England? I was ready to love it but it really fell apart for me in the last 10-15 minutes. Hated the last scene, especially.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:47am Brian C.:

Hatch,
Couldn't that band's name be announced as "Psychedelic Horses Hit"?

Tue. 12/18/07 11:48am Hatch:

Could be, sure. Or Psychedelic Horse Poo, et cetera.

Tue. 12/18/07 11:51am Wes:

horse hockey

Tue. 12/18/07 12:00pm Parq:

Bon holiday, H. See you after the break.

Wed. 12/19/07 12:25pm mihai:

Damn, all too often I end up listening to the show on Wednesday. But just wanted to say, surely Sean Penn's 'Into The Wild' has to make any respectable 2007 movie list?
