The use of Luke Perry in the video for the Killers' new Christmas single "¡Happy Birthday Guadalupe!"? Pretty classy. Too bad there's not a scene where he boinks Shannen Doherty upside down on a cactus. But how does the song itself rate against the previous three years' worth of holiday jams from the Las Vegas band?So far "A Great Big Sled" is in the lead. I dunno, maybe because it was their first one. Something about it still sounds so joyous all these jingle bells later. "Don't Shoot Me Santa" kinda bit. (And by kinda, I mean it was completely Z-grade.) As for last year's, "Joseph, Better You Than Me," it was...strange.
I'm placing "¡Happy Birthday Guadalupe!" at #2, behind "A Great Big Sled." Watch and see what you think:
"¡Happy Birthday Guadalupe!" was made available today—on World AIDS Day— digitally via the (RED) campaign.
