Six Parodies relating to Christmas. Released as a 'Fan Club Only' EP in 2003. Each song is now available on other CDs by the band.
"Micah No. 5" Parody of "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega, a huge hit from 1999 ("A little bit of Monica in my life ...") -- Talks about the birth of Christ in Bethlehem. This is a really fun track, and one of our best parodies yet!
"Late December 5 or 6 B.C. (Oh Holy Night)" Parody of "December 1963 (Oh What a Night)" by the Four Seasons, a #1 hit in 1976 and a #8 hit in 1994 as a dance remix. Our version is the dance remix. -- Talks about the fact that we don't know when Christ's birth was (what month or year), but we DO know that He really was born, and we ought to celebrate Him every day!
"Santa Claus" Parody of "Panama" by Van Halen, a big hit in 1984, and an FM rock staple to this day. -- Starts with a kid who thinks Christmas is all about Santa Claus and then focuses on the real Reason for the season.
"Hotel Can't Afford Ya" (ALL-NEW VERSION) Parody of "Hotel California" by the Eagles -- Same words as before, but totally re-recorded with new instrumentation, new vocals and some extra stuff you've never heard before! This is the way we WISHED we could have done it back when we recorded "Jesus Christ Morningstar" in 1998. If you liked the first version, you'll LOVE this version!
"Manger" Parody of "Angel" by Shaggy with Rayvon -- Same version as the one on "Keep the Change," but we wanted to give you all of the Christmas songs on one CD!
"Christmasnite" Parody of "Kryptonite" by Three Doors Down -- Same version as the one on "Keep the Change," but no ApologetiX Christmas CD is complete without this one!
