Yeah life got busy, but it’s Christmas and while I’m in a place where they don’t know it’s Christmas time at all, I found the time to write about what has been my favourite Christmas song for about two decades. Eux Autres is a brother-sister duo from California (later the drummer from the Aislers Set became an adopted family member) who sing catchy jangly indiepop, with this sarcastic Christmas-themed song being one of my favourites. Even when listening to it through my AirPods, it’s hard to resist clapping along. “Dad slides a fiver over / Play me Hotel California, little one”
