One of the most unusual songs of the season is “Come Some Christmas Eve (Or Halloween)” by Large poppy syndrome, a group made up of Bee Gees guitarist Vince Melouney and Blondie drummer Clem Burke. The group also includes guitarist Jonathan Lea, bassist Alec Palao and Paul Kopf on vocals.

“The song is an obscure number written by former band member Vince Robin Gibb and reimagined here in a ‘The Who as The Zombies’ ‘Odessey And Oracle’ style,” reads a description on the group’s YouTube page.
