"(I Wish I Were Giving You a Gift) This Christmas," Girl Ray (Moshi Moshi)

This teenaged trio from London is getting a lot of notice for an album with a Spoonerism of a name (Earl Grey) that just came out in 2017, and they topped it all off with an original holiday single that is ... well ... I like it, but I'm having to listen to it repeatedly because the myriad tempo changes are giving me vertigo.  It's sort of the "River Deep, Mountain High" of Christmas singles, wildly ambitious and overly long, and I'm not sure if you're going to find this an easy fit in your holiday playlists. It's quite the pastiche of girl group singing via Roy Wood's Wizzard, although the vocals are rather gentle for the busy backing track. On the bright side, they throw in a kid's chorus that isn't self-consciously off-key or excessively cute. Flip is a deliberately lo-fi "I'll Be Home For Christmas." It's on Bandcamp, or you can grab it on vinyl.
