In the spirit of the holiday season, I'd like to share some of my favs with everyone. These are both very catchy, snarky tracks.

First up, Paparazzi's "In a Manner of Speaking" (Ultra rare b-side to one of their 2 single releases.) Reminds me of a synthy Pulp. Circa '83, produced by Thereza Bazar.

Second, The Engine Room's "Love Her (She's Poison". Also synthy. I know nothing about this band but would love to learn more. Circa 1985.

Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas and Bon Kwanza.
