Tom Waits - Ireland's Number 1 For Christmas


This campaign has being set up by another Irish blogger and I'm interested to see how it turns out. Not that I care who is number one for Christmas but if you had to choose between Tom Waits or the yet un-released, probably un-named X -Factor, Westlife / Girls Aloud rubbish then whatever I can do to help, I will. So if you want to see Tom Waits number one for Christmas with his classic "Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis" just click on the title and it will take you to the Waitsforchristmas blog where everything is explained. If you havent heard the song before then check out the blog player, you might also wanna grab a bottle of Gin! Its a little bit tragic!
