Of all the Christmas songs which have been recorded, only the best can make it into The Lucy Museum of Musicians who deserve entry to Lucy's Museum of Musicians and at number 7 we have Frosty The Snowman by Bowling For Soup.
The Bowling for Soup boys have quietly put out a couple of Christmas themed albums called Merry Flippin' Christmas Volumes 1 and 2 where they take traditional standards and attack them with their electric guitars.
They do over the likes of 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' and 'Feliz Navidad' but the one i always skip to is the fast and frantic Frosty the Snowman who it seems everyone and their dog had had a go at since it was released in the 1950's but nobody has managed to capture the pop-punk sound as BFS have.
One of the most famous Christmas songs, it doesn't actually mention Christmas at all, just verses about a Snowman who comes to life but i have always questioned the wisdom of him being made of snow, should he really be smoking his corncob pipe which will surely make him melt even quicker?
