What was so all-fired important in Neil's life that he didn't have time to actually stand in a hotel lobby to have a picture taken? This photo is straight-up Photoshop Bravo Sierra.

His Wikipedia entry says he would've been in a classical piano competition (which Van Cliburn wound up winning), but the Soviets said he couldn't be in it because they disapproved of rock and roll. There's a footnote asking for clarification on how that information was found.
Dude's had an interesting life. I won't begrudge him a few Christmas tunes in the style of ... wait, what style is this?

I got a fever, and the only prescription, is MORE SLIDE WHISTLE.

"God is alive and he's making a comeback?" Shouldn't that be in an Easter song?
This crap sounds like it should have been featured on a Golden Girls episode -- you know, like Neil Sedaka just happens to be in town and gets into some caper with the four aged vixens, eventually agreeing to perform at the community fair, where he invites them up on stage to help him sing his incredibly hip new Christmas number, praising Jesus and all. Then Rue McClanahan takes her top off and tosses it into the front row ...

Neil looks young. In fact, he looks a little TOO young. I think I know how he does it. His music has the power to suck the life force out of anyone daring to listen to it and then that energy goes straight to Neil like he's some youth-vampire-beast from an X-Files episode.
You can make all the snarky comments you like, but to me these two songs have illustrated the true meaning of Christmas: I listened to them, and yelled, "JESUS CHRIST!" right before clawing the headphones from my ears.

"Razzle Dazzle Christmas" is the kind of song you want to play for your kids if your goal is to ensure that they forever believe that their dad is out of touch. You just can't recover from a song like that...especially not when it's sung by Neil Sedaka.

I don't care how lame it is, Breaking Up Is Hard To Do is a brilliant song. This is terrible. But Breaking Up Is Hard To Do rules.
The envelope-filtered, Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians guitar pissing all over Love is Spreading Over the World is even more inexplicable than the Toto guitar in the Archies song. Also, you undersold the hilarity of the baptist ending. That's even lamer than the baptist ending I was trying to make Jason do for Do They Know it's Xmas.
