For the second year in a row, the Killers have released a Christmas single for charity. In addition to beautifully mashing the old Outlaw Western genre with 80's synth-pop, this song in particular reminds me of my aunt's old Vinyl LP Singles (remember those little records you needed the plastic insert for?) made popular when it was still okay for artists to talk during the verses (Big Bopper, we're looking squarely in your direction).The song is great, but the video is a blast. I actually want one of those sweaters so that I can have an ironic Christmas, too.
