Music for Your Holiday Hangover

We have officially entered the holi-daze time between Christmas and New Year's Eve, so let's review all the beautiful-to-bizarre Christmas music released last week.

Spider-Man released a Christmas album. The Flaming Lips covered David Bowie and Bing Crosby's Christmas Medley. Mac DeMarco collaborated with Kirin J. Callinan and covered Nat King Cole's "The Christmas Song;" it appears on a benefit comp featuring Alex Cameron, Weyes Blood and more. Mariah Carey broke the all-time single-day streaming record on Christmas Eve with her 1994 Christmas original "All I Want For Christmas is You" (it was streamed almost 11 million times).
