The Waitresses - Xmas Flashing

'Christmas Wrapping' is still the best Xmas song ever recorded. Originally intended for NY disco punk ZE Records label's compilation A Christmas Record in 1981, the song by The Waitresses (who hit in Aus with 'I Know What Boys Like' in 1982) became a UK hit the following holiday season. The track has since been covered by Spice Girls, The Donnas, Kate Nash and Save Ferris plus there's a live version by data Panik (formely Bis) kicking around. But what better way to pay tribute to the original version than to be mesmerised by Xmas lights.
