George Michael is officially releasing holiday ballad "December Song (I Dreamed Of Christmas)" on December 13 (i.e. the same week the Pet Shop Boys are putting out their own Christmas EP).Curious George apparently wrote the tune with the Spice Girls in mind during their reunion two years ago. Why they went with "Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)" over this is beyond me. But then again, they're both kind of snoozy (though the video here is cute).
I don't know—I keep trying to picture the Spice Girls singing it, with nice, warbling Mel C vanity vocals all over the end. Maybe it would've been a bit more exciting as a duet?
