keep singing!
I have holiday music stuck on my head. There's one song they're always playing on the radio. It's Dean Martin or Bing Crosby or one of their wannabes, I'm not sure. There's a big band and back up singers and the star. In the chorus, the star bellows, "Happy holidays! Keep singing! Happy holidays to yooou!" Somewhere in the bottom of his voice under the banality of the song, I hear a strange specter of naked aggression. The star is full of scotch, and goddamnit why can't they get it right. He's yelling at them to keep singing, and if they don't somebody's going to pay.
