Tears for Fears’ Curt Smith is releasing his first original holiday song in his 30 year music career tomorrow and it is called This is Christmas. The background vocals features his two daughters Diva and Wilder, and a local school’s choir. The song doesn’t only have his family involved with it, but that is what it is about because here is how he described it, “an adult visiting his parents at Christmas and lamenting how he’s always made to feel like a child when he returns home. It culminates in his realization and acceptance that they’re family after all, and nothing will (or even should) change that.†Let’s be real we all know that no matter how old we get, when we go home we are like children all over again. Saying that everyone can relate to this future Christmas classic so download it at iTunes and Amazon starting tomorrow, or get an autograph copy via Curt Smith’s website.
And if listening to it on your computer or iPod isn’t enough, you will be able to hear it on December 15th on USA’s Psych. The show that Curt Smith made his acting debut on earlier in the year!
Lastly Smith will be playing several solo LA shows next year before touring with the Tears for Fears on the West Coast and South America. I know I am going to go see the man who sings my all time favorite song Mad World!!! And I mean the TFF version and not the others.

Every now and again you find something on the internet that makes you go why did I press play, but at that same time you just can’t stop watching. A Very Peanus Christmas is just that type of video. The webisode was created by James Gunn. who many of us got to know on VH1’s Scream Queens, and stars Michael Rosenbaum (I miss Lex Luthor on Smallville) and Scream Queen Tiffany Shepis. I don’t know how else to describe it, but you just have to watch it. Seriously Michael Rosenbaum as Charlie Brown is so wrong, it is right.
Looks like this is the first in many more in James Gunn’s webseries PG-P0rn.
Dee Snider and Twisted Sister have ruined Christmas for me, because that is the scariest Santa Clause I have ever seen. And I have seen almost every horror movie about the holiday. I am off to go hide under my Christmas Tree and hope Santa doesn't find me.
Brandon Walker so captured what it is like to be a Jew on Christmas! Way too funny!!!
Let’s all go to see a movie and eat some Chinese food next Tuesday because it looks like so much fun!
Thanks Lynn!
I haven’t cried this much about a Christmas icon since I heard an urban legend that Santa Claus really doesn’t exist, but we all know he does!!!
Seriously how can CBS do that to poor Frosty The Snowman, what did he do to them except give them good ratings every year. Poor Frosty. What are they going to Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, dare I ask???
