Desde que apareció "Foundations" tengo a Kate Nash en lo más alto de las mujeres de la música, donde se encuentra Adele y, si cuentan los difuntos, Amy Winehouse. Quizás sea demasiado, y hasta yo lo sé, pero no entiendo por qué le tomé tanto cariño (quizás porque nos mostró su corazón en ese disco). Su voz, eso sí no puede negarse, tiene una dulzura única. Junto a ella se unió Ryan Jarman , de The Cribs , para hacer una versión de la canción "Last Christmas" , creada originalmente por la agrupación Wham! [...]
Você achou que passaria um dia 24 de dezembro sem ao menos conferir mais um single natalino? É claro que não. Mas a parceria que gerou essa versão da clássica Last Christmas vale a sua atenção nesse dia festivo. Kate Nash , para inaugurar seu novo site oficial e presentear os fãs nesse natal, liberou para download gratuito uma versão de Last Christmas gravada em parceria com dois terços dos irmãos Jarman, membros da banda de indie-rock The Cribs . Enquanto Ross empresta sua habilidade de baterista para [...]
It's that time of year again (well at least in the UK) where you can't enter a shopping mall without hearing the same twenty or so Christmas songs on an endless loop. I was mentioning this in the office the other day and as we are quite a cosmopolitan group here in London ...
This is what it's all about folks. Giving and sharing. And Mr. Kirkness himself was kind enough to send us his version of "Last Christmas" directly. The Canadian country crooner says it's his long-time favorite Christmas song despite, George Michael's un-countriness, and was the natural choice for his first holiday single. But I welcome this with open arms, we don't get too many country influenced covers here at Last Christmas HQ! http://jasonkirkness.com/ http://last-christmas.com/
No, this is NOT an ode to the Wham! song, it's a Christmas story submitted by Dan Hart to get you in the mood for the holidays. Enjoy! -- I was woken up at four thirty in the morning by a gleefully shrieking six year old. I wasn't even aware that there was a four thirty in the morning, until the drumstick bounced off my cranium and I was deafened by squeals of 'Preeeeeeeseeeeeeeeeeents!' I growled at my little sister through clenched teeth, telling her that if she didn't get back to [...]

Like This and Like That is the new column from Snobcast extraordinaire, Father Guido Sarducci IV. The procedure: Every morning (OK, maybe not every morning) Guido will snatch the first crisp, clean & new mp3 he stumbles upon, listen to it at least once, and then find an old song (ten years or more) for some good old-fashioned compare and contrast. The purpose: To draw a line between the modern and the out-of-date. The premise: To expose the kids to their past while also showing the unfashionable adults that there's great new music being made every day. [...]
My new Xmas single "Santa" has only been out for a day but I've already got some lovely reviews: Free Christmas Music Blog says: "This year's single, "Santa (can you bring me someone else this year)" , was just released today, and it's every bit as good as I expected it to be (which is a relief, because I often worry when my expectations get too high for something). Musically, "Santa" is a fun, synthesizer-based pop song that would not sound out of [...]
Foto: Roxanne I lørdags var jeg til dobbelt koncert i Vega med de danske indie rock yndlinge The Kissaway Trail og Figurines . Det var en helt igennem dejlig aften, hvor de to bands var absolut velspillende og veloplagte og i det store og hele levede op til mine høje forventninger. Der er godt nok først december om et par uger, men synes alligevel jeg ville dele et nyt jule cover nummer, Kissaway har kreeret, nemlig Whams Last Christmas . Det er ikke nogen fantastisk ny fortolkning, [...]
L'interruzione del discorso con cui la regina Elisabetta II ha allietato a reti unificate il popolo inglese durante il Natale è costata cara a Tom Binns , un DJ dell'emittente radiofonica BRMB : a darcene notizia è il locale Birmingham Mail , attraverso il quale riusciamo a comprendere nel dettaglio una vicenda soprendente e grottesca al tempo stesso. Nel momento in cui la regina stava ringraziando i soldati britannici impegnati sul fronte in Afghanistan, infatti, dalla sua postazione Binns ha lanciato "Last Christmas" degli Wham! etichettandone il discorso come [...]
Christmas is all about repeats. Last year I intoned. "This is the best Christmas song of all time, in my not so humble opinion. It retains this honour, because in essence, it's a very simple song witht a very timeless subject, fusing sugary pop and melancholy at the same time. The Erlend Oye version below brings out the sadness in wondrous acoustic fashion. The log cabin to George Michael's chairlift." Findlay Brown gatecrashed that liaison. Findlay Brown - Last Christmas
E riecco che ritorna l'appuntamento delle sfide natalizie del 2009. Questa volta a scontrarsi sono Cascada ed Hilary Duff che ci presentano due versioni di "Last Christmas" ( Wham ) molto "infantili". Utilizzo questo aggettivo perchè il modo in cui viene cantata la canzone appartiene al filone "voce chiara, limpida e senza particolari gorgheggi improvvisati", quasi come se ci trovassimo di fronte a due voci bianche (quelle dei bambini, per capirci meglio) e questa caratteristica, ovviamente, è rinvenibile in ambedue le cover. Le differenze le possiamo trovare a livello di "genere" e [...]

Met nog krap twee weken te gaan, kom ik er niet meer onderuit: een kerst-post. Ik ga er vanuit dat iedereen de standaard meezingers en klassiekers in zijn of haar bezit heeft, dus licht ik een paar andere versies uit. Last Christmas Er zijn minstens 400 versies van dit nummer. Ik bespreek er drie. I'm So Look You heeft dit nummer verkracht met stampende beats en een heel zwaar geautotunede zanglijn. Van de lieflijkheid en de gezellige warme jaren tachtig wintersfeer is helemaal niks meer over. Jammer. Darren Hayes [...]

Cocktail Slippers are a foxy female fivesome from Oslo, Norway, who combine the girl-group harmonies of The Ronettes with the sass of Debbie Harry and the gritty rock 'n' roll of The Runaways to produce a high-octane hybrid that'll rock you world more than a bomb disposal expert with a twitchy finger. As it's Christmas the girls have recorded a rocking version of Wham's festive perennial 'Last Christmas' . Check out their Hard Day's Night style video of the girls romping around their hometown.

I'm deeply sorry about the late post today; I ate an atomic nacho - of my own making - last night, late, after going to the Colorado Avalanche (pro hockey team; they lost) ... suffice to say, it ripped my innards apart and then, sadistically, forced me to shit it out. It looked like the cover to Hella 's {Acoustics} . "Brown bunny," indeed! Now that I've gotten that unpleasantness behind us let me bless you with a review of a cute lil' CD single I'm not sure you [...]
