Barenaked Laides' BARENAKED FOR THE HOLIDAYS [2004]

HERC gets
Barenaked For The Holidays -
Do you?

The 2004 album is twenty tracks of Holiday cheer with guest appearances from fellow Canadians Michael Buble and Sarah McLachlan. There are covers of modern Christmas songs like McCartney's "Wonderful Christmastime" and Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?" as well as the band's renditions of cherished carols and seasonal sing-a-longs.  They are even a few songs for those who celebrate Hanukkah.  The mood of the album is upbeat with two scoops of whimsy but never disrespectful or parody making it the perfect Holiday soundtrack for office parties, church groups and holiday hoedowns. HERC definitely recommends Barenaked For The Holidays



If 20 tracks is too big a commitment, Barenaked Ladies have got you covered.  There's a modest little three song promo only radio sampler (above) to be had.  Wondering where you may have heard of Barenaked Ladies before?
