When I was gathering the list of songs I would be putting into the Hall Of Fame, the lovely and talented Denise, better known as my main squeeze, was almost in complete 100% agreement. She only had one request and that was for this song to be on the list:
Originally released in 1981, the song has become a modern day classic. The Waitresses hit the music charts with their song I Know What Boys Like that was released in 1980. Christmas Wrapping actually ranked higher on the charts so guess technically they wouldn't be considered a one hit wonder. Sadly the lead singer Patty Donahue died of lung cancer in 1996 at the age of 40.
A very worthy addition. I've always somehow equated this song as being a Christmas companion to the Shagg's "IT'S HALLOWEEN" -- even though it's MUCH more musically proficient! LOL Two wonderful, happy songs to frolic to!
ReplyDeleteI will have to go and familiarize myself with the Shagg's song now, don't recognize the title but I am currently heavily medicated.
