"Santa's Going to Kokomo," Mike Love (Meleco)

Yeah, yeah, Santa and his old lady like to go south for the summer. A remarkably weak effort, no doubt hindered by the insistence on making kids sing most of the way through it. This is the Beach Boys' final top 40 hit repurposed by the band's lead singer a la "Christmas Is All Around" from the movie "Love Actually." Another downloadable single from 2006, still available that way only from iTunes. Currently it's out on the compilation JDRF's Hope for The Holidays from 2009, where it is accompanied by another Mike Love song. Love, Fabrice Morvan and others, including another kiddie choir, perform "The Closing Of the Year."
