Santa's Christmas Rap (Kool Moe Dee, the Treacherous 3, Doug E. Fresh) From the movie Beat Street (1984). Some words might be NSFW. You can watch the

Style This Skirt? Hi y'all. Glad to see arsie is keeping the Musical Giftstravaganza alive! I thought of you all because I just bought this skirt. I love it to pieces but I'm not that great at styling - and I need a top to go with it.
The manufacturer shows it with a tank top..not helpful for NY in December. I don't mind dressing with an edge but would like to stop somewhere short of "saucy wench." I know I'm going to wear it with black tights and either Mary Janes or tall boots - what shold I wear for a top? Thanks for your good eye.

Stille Nacht - Silent Night Nina Hagen is truly amazing.
Gabriel's Message Sting. Because shouldn't Christmas be kind of creepy and disturbing?

What do you think? :)
