WFMU: The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from December 22, 2009

Listener comments!
	11:07pm Lang: I love the snowflake backdrop EFD!!
	11:11pm Julie T.: Do you podcast your shows? Most times it's hard for me to listen until it's over.
	11:11pm Megacosm: if I didn't know better, I'd say Little Drummer Boy was off of one of those K-Tel Meco records. The Meco Star Wars (And Other Galacitic Funk) album was a smash hit in my house in '77.
	11:14pm Michael from the Left Coast: How perfect a Yenta singing about the King of the Orient-aah
	11:14pm cissy davis: heeey happy holidays evan,,,i also love the backdrop,,btw did you ever find that linda hughes tune for tonite's show??? peace on earth & joy to the world,,,i hope you get everything you waant and lots more!! HAPPY XMAS =)=)
	11:17pm Mike Love Not War: Was that MErry Christmas Baby thing a Brian written tune?
	11:19pm (mta) Tony: Definitely Lang, great easy to read holiday color scheme, too. Bravo efd and Merry Christmas to all.
	11:23pm Dud MIlkington: Blind Owl!
	11:23pm toni daytona: dear evan, peace,,,love,,joy & happiness with love toni daytona
	11:25pm efd: hi everybody, merry christmas, happy hanukkah, and happy holidays and winter season in general! Glad you're enjoying the holiday background. MLNW yes, that was a Beach Boys cover by the Smithereens.
	11:28pm cissy davis: evan? did you find the linda hughes tune this week?
	11:37pm efd: Julie, I can't podcast my show, but it is archived and if you email me (evan at wfmu dot org) I can tell you how to do kind of a manual-style podcast. Cissy/Toni/Cheri, no Linda Hughes I'm afraid, but I hope you'll enjoy the show anyway.
	11:37pm Gabe: Punky Meadows! Guiffria! Turn that ANGEL logo upside down. It still sez ... ANGEL.
	11:39pm slugluv1313: aaaggggghhhhhh ANGEL!!!!!!! (all kidding aside YES i actually OWN this 45 -- pic sleeve and everything, featuring ANGEL in those oh-so-fabulous 1970s white jumpsuits and that extra-long-FEATHERED hair!!!!!!!)
	11:41pm cissy davis: god bless brittney murphy may she rest peacefuly,,,evan you know i always enjoy what you play,,,ho ho ho!!!!!!!
	11:41pm john: So nice to hear a Roy Wood song at this time of year that isn't I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day!
	11:47pm efd: glad you appreciated that, John - i thought it would be nice to change it up a bit. Although I do love "I Wish It Could Be Christmas..." too.
	11:48pm Vanda Young: Baby Jesus will have a mohawk
	11:50pm geno: evan, nice work! show kicks ass! pointed stix & roy wood? awesome.
	11:52pm toni daytona: well evan us gals gotta skip out,,,but we'll still listen have a wonderfull holiday,,,g'nite see you soon=)=)
	11:53pm Danne D: Merre Christmas and Happy Holidays all you funk fans out there :) Hope the season treats you all well. That Angel track was interesting as it sounded sorta like some sort of random John Wetton type thing or another. Accidental poem: We all know what every lady Would like to see Under the tree: E - F - D! :D
	11:56pm Danne D: why do I have visions of toni and company taking a trip down Evan's chimney on Christmas Eve? :) As a total aside this set has randomly jarred my memory to remind me of the very first record I technically owned (in the sense that one of my siblings said I could have it) was a Beach Boys 45" that has long since disappeared from my posseession. I don't remember the a-side but I vaguely remember the b-side as being something called "Funky Christmas" - you can pretty much figure out the time frame that THAT record must be from :)
	11:57pm Danne D: Midnight Ticket Mirage?!?
	11:57pm Lang: You are the funk machine Evan!
	11:57pm Vanda Young: I will replay that Angel song from the archive after the traditional Christmas meal... so I can make room for pie.
	11:59pm Lang: we have this 45 here at the Key Lang homestead. So great to hear it on the airwaves!!
	11:59pm slugluv1313: here's one for ya, Evan! (truthfully one of my "holiday favorites" -- even if it IS just so durn cute!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Wrc6Q7acME
	12:00am Danne D: I think my memory has played tricks on me. It appears the song is "Funky New Year" by the Eagles. And yep....it was the Eagles. It was this record: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/please-come-home-for-christmas/id186832642
	12:01am slugluv1313: Vanda, that is EXACTLY why that Angel song was CREATED!!!
	12:01am Danne D: And to close out this trip down memory lane, apparently the 45 actually charted in 1978. So there you go. Danne D's first technically owned record :)
	12:02am Amanda: DD -- Heh. I thought that didn't sound quite right, but I didn't say anything since my personal time frame is that of "Funky, Funky Christmas" by New Kids on the Block.
	12:03am toni daytona: evan i just came back to say i want you all to myself,,,bye-bye
	12:06am Danne D: Amanda! :) Now it's like Christmas with you here :) I think it was the seeming incongruity in my mind of the band with the two songs - that is they didn't seem terribly Eagles-like to me. Not particulary Beach Boys-like either which is probably why I mixed 'em up. Found a link to it on a rather sketchy looking site with cyrillic letters: http://www.vbox7.com/play:413d2a96
	12:06am Hermínio: Evan, this is a brazilian WFMU fan istening to your show from Natal, Brazil
	12:08am Danne D: anyhow, Evan actually could start '10 with the 70s with that song. Feliz Natal - Hermínio!
	12:08am efd: Hola, Herminio! Thanks for listening, and for the comment. I know that Spanish isn't the primary language in Brazil, but hopefully "hola" is close enough. :)
	12:10am Amanda: AWRIGHT BIG STAR! Someone had to say it.
	12:12am Danne D: btw, EFD, I totally cheated and used babelfish in my greeting to Herminio ;)
	12:12am Danne D: so you ready for Santa, Amanda? I'm probably getting coal :(
	12:18am toni daytona: efd--i hate to be selfish but i want YOU under my tree xmas morning.
	12:19am Danne D: Wow I haven't heard this in like a million years!
	12:22am Amanda: Love to have ya. Yes, I guess I am ready for Santa! Hard to believe you've been anything but good -- your pledge is all paid up and everything.
	12:22am Vanda Young: Augie, my boy...
	12:25am Sarah: Stan Freberg! My sister and I used to recite his bits when we were kids.
	12:26am Danne D: Whoa! Amanda really must have an in with santa - she even knows my pledge status ;o)
	12:26am The Maelman: Surely Thank God It's Not Christmas by SPARKS is in the bullpen?
	12:28am efd: but... but... it IS Christmas!
	12:31am Sybil: Surely, efd, you can hold two mutually contradictory thoughts in your head at the same time.
	12:32am toni daytona: efd i'm really loving your show tonite!!!!!!
	12:36am Jessica: You're a sweet one, Mister EFD. Happy sun's return!
	12:43am Jessica: This sounds mighty Art Brut-y.
	12:46am efd: Indeed! I guess it's hard for anything with his voice to sound otherwise.
	12:50am rachel jansen: who can not love efd!?!?!?!?!
	12:50am ?: Great show EFD! Happy Holidays ... Clay P
	12:52am Danne D: I heard scrooge pledged to efd, but then didn't pay, rachel :)
	12:53am efd: thank you, mr. pigeon! the next song's for you.
	1:05am Joshua K: Oh dear, whats going on... Im hearing such things... I don't know what to say...
	1:05am Danne D: lol EFD expands "everyone knows the claus"'s lead as the most played Hanson song on FMU. 5-2 over MMMBop
	1:07am john: After Elton and Hanson, virtually nowhere to go but down, so I'll stumble off to bed. Merry happy, everybody!
	1:07am efd: MMMBop might as well just pack it in. It'll never catch up.
	1:08am Zanderoid: Isn't Tyler Hanson in a band with Bun E. Carlos now?
	1:09am john: Well, and this one.
	1:09am Danne D: Yay :) Even if this is an x-mas staple it never gets old :) Well yeah MMMBop won't catch up until the reincarnation of Greasy Kids Stuff ;o)
	1:10am DanneD: Correction btw it's 4-2 for the 'claus - still amazed at Kenzo's work that has the live accuplaylist stuff automatically archived like that.
	1:12am efd: that's tAylor hanson, and yes he is. We'll be hearing them next week... not that I'm giving anything away.
	1:15am Joshua K: Do you think the kids at school made fun of him and called him Taylor HAMson
	1:16am efd: only if he'd gone to school in new jersey.
	1:18am Santeater: Can Mannheim Steamroller be far behind?
	1:20am efd: yes, they can be very very far behind. they're stuck somewhere with the trans-siberian orchestra, i think. who we also won't be hearing.
	1:21am Joshua K: I like the ventures and james brown christmas albums, even though they might get overplayed.
	1:23am Danne D: OOF - that Claus(e) pun Evan!
	1:26am Al Jardine: I LOVE John Stamos! Thanks!
	1:30am Danne D: Believe it or not this is the first time I've heard this song this christmas season :) glad to see it on the list
	1:31am Sybil: Speaking of my love for Tin Huey and all that springs forth from its ruins... Danne, I believe efd usually plays this at this time of year. I'm waiting on one more thing...
	1:33am efd: Sybil, is the song you're waiting for performed by someone whose name starts with "D" and ends with "n?" If not, I'm afraid I might have forgotten something...
	1:33am Danne D: Sybil's careful listening probably means more presents for her than for Danne this year...
	1:34am Dee Wassell: Keep playing the amazing music!! <33 WFMU and Evan Funk Davies. Thanks for the tickets, that made my night!
	1:37am Sybil: Uhhhh... not what I had in mind, but I'm thinking of the same D-person you're thinking of, it'll do as well!
	1:38am efd: oh wait, I think I know what Sybil's waiting for, and it's not what I was thinking. Actually, I don't think anyone's waiting for the song I was thinking of, but I'll play it anyway. Then I'll play the song I think Sybil's waiting for.
	1:40am Sybil: I actually understood that comment. I think.
	1:40am Danne D: I wait with bated breath :)
	1:43am Danne D: awww :( I loved Top Cat
	1:44am Sybil: Yup, that's the D-man! Too bad about Top Cat. He was the coolest.
	1:46am efd: let's see if i guessed right with the next track, Sybil...
	1:46am A: Anyone else getting a weird Dave Thomas vibe from Dion?
	1:48am Sybil: Heh, you got it!
	1:49am Danne D: OLE!
	1:49am efd: :) where is Augie Rios now, that's the question.
	1:49am Klaus: Augie ist wunderbar! Danke Schoen.
	1:51am dave: it used to be that christmas started for me the first time i heard "have a holly jolly christmas". now it's "donde esta santa claus". wfmu has had a profound, and somewhat ambiguous, effect on on my holiday season is all i'm saying.
	1:53am Sybil: Augie Rios had, apparently, another, lesser-known Christmas song: http://poparchivesblog.blogspot.com/2006/12/augie-rios-ol-fatso-obscure-christmas.html
	1:53am Sybil: Sorry, I was too lazy t0o tinyurl that one.
	1:56am Joshua K: I would post something from hugeurl.com but I don't want to defile this playlist on such a joyous occasion
	1:57am efd: show's almost over, so that url won't matter. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! thanks for listening!
	1:57am cissy davis: evan---please deticate this show to the passin of brittney murphy,,thank you evan,,,
	1:59am Sybil: Good night and happy happy to all, see you next time for the BEST OF 2009! Thanks efd for another great year!
	2:01am Danne D: Great show EFD! And again glad tiding to all funk fans! :)

	1:05am Danne D: lol EFD expands "everyone knows the claus"'s lead as the most played Hanson song on FMU. 5-2 over MMMBop
	1:07am john: After Elton and Hanson, virtually nowhere to go but down, so I'll stumble off to bed. Merry happy, everybody!
	1:07am efd: MMMBop might as well just pack it in. It'll never catch up.
	1:08am Zanderoid: Isn't Tyler Hanson in a band with Bun E. Carlos now?
	1:09am john: Well, and this one.
	1:09am Danne D: Yay :) Even if this is an x-mas staple it never gets old :) Well yeah MMMBop won't catch up until the reincarnation of Greasy Kids Stuff ;o)
	1:10am DanneD: Correction btw it's 4-2 for the 'claus - still amazed at Kenzo's work that has the live accuplaylist stuff automatically archived like that.
	1:12am efd: that's tAylor hanson, and yes he is. We'll be hearing them next week... not that I'm giving anything away.
	1:15am Joshua K: Do you think the kids at school made fun of him and called him Taylor HAMson
	1:16am efd: only if he'd gone to school in new jersey.
	1:18am Santeater: Can Mannheim Steamroller be far behind?
	1:20am efd: yes, they can be very very far behind. they're stuck somewhere with the trans-siberian orchestra, i think. who we also won't be hearing.
	1:21am Joshua K: I like the ventures and james brown christmas albums, even though they might get overplayed.
	1:23am Danne D: OOF - that Claus(e) pun Evan!
	1:26am Al Jardine: I LOVE John Stamos! Thanks!
	1:30am Danne D: Believe it or not this is the first time I've heard this song this christmas season :) glad to see it on the list
	1:31am Sybil: Speaking of my love for Tin Huey and all that springs forth from its ruins... Danne, I believe efd usually plays this at this time of year. I'm waiting on one more thing...
	1:33am efd: Sybil, is the song you're waiting for performed by someone whose name starts with "D" and ends with "n?" If not, I'm afraid I might have forgotten something...
	1:33am Danne D: Sybil's careful listening probably means more presents for her than for Danne this year...
	1:34am Dee Wassell: Keep playing the amazing music!! <33 WFMU and Evan Funk Davies. Thanks for the tickets, that made my night!
	1:37am Sybil: Uhhhh... not what I had in mind, but I'm thinking of the same D-person you're thinking of, it'll do as well!
	1:38am efd: oh wait, I think I know what Sybil's waiting for, and it's not what I was thinking. Actually, I don't think anyone's waiting for the song I was thinking of, but I'll play it anyway. Then I'll play the song I think Sybil's waiting for.
	1:40am Sybil: I actually understood that comment. I think.
	1:40am Danne D: I wait with bated breath :)
	1:43am Danne D: awww :( I loved Top Cat
	1:44am Sybil: Yup, that's the D-man! Too bad about Top Cat. He was the coolest.
	1:46am efd: let's see if i guessed right with the next track, Sybil...
	1:46am A: Anyone else getting a weird Dave Thomas vibe from Dion?
	1:48am Sybil: Heh, you got it!
	1:49am Danne D: OLE!
	1:49am efd: :) where is Augie Rios now, that's the question.
	1:49am Klaus: Augie ist wunderbar! Danke Schoen.
	1:51am dave: it used to be that christmas started for me the first time i heard "have a holly jolly christmas". now it's "donde esta santa claus". wfmu has had a profound, and somewhat ambiguous, effect on on my holiday season is all i'm saying.
	1:53am Sybil: Augie Rios had, apparently, another, lesser-known Christmas song: http://poparchivesblog.blogspot.com/2006/12/augie-rios-ol-fatso-obscure-christmas.html
	1:53am Sybil: Sorry, I was too lazy t0o tinyurl that one.
	1:56am Joshua K: I would post something from hugeurl.com but I don't want to defile this playlist on such a joyous occasion
	1:57am efd: show's almost over, so that url won't matter. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! thanks for listening!
	1:57am cissy davis: evan---please deticate this show to the passin of brittney murphy,,thank you evan,,,
