It’s been 10 years since I last played the Winter Sprinter after which Sean Price feld to Japan to escape his debtors.
In that decade I’ve put out two solo albums and two @thisistheloves.bsky.social compilations but have not been asked to play.
Strange.

The Loves December Boy (Fortuna Pop)
Song for the day: The Loves - December Boy
This video stars @simonloverules.bsky.social's pal Kaufman, who is quite the dreamboat. I absolutely did not have a huge, filthy crush on him. Nosirree, not at all, nuh uh, no way. Nope.

Its neat the way the Japanese authors assume their readers are familiar with the music of Simon Love enough to have expectations of a Christmas song.

That alone is playful enough to make this a delightful 7" single. The song is, as you'd expect from Simon Love, a sparkling Christmas pop song with a 60s girl pop vibe. It's one of my favorites on the Fortuna Pop! label. (Ueda)

"This Christmas song is by The Loves, the band that pop master Simon Love was a member of. The cover features a picture of Jesus Christ on both sides, but the back features a picture of Jesus winking and blowing up bubble gum, in keeping with the title of the B-side, "Bubblegum."

The Loves do Jonathan Richman's "Velvet Underground"
Facebook Memories has reminded me of this Jonathan Richman cover @thisistheloves.bsky.social did in 2009 for a covers album called “Baby You’re A Richman” that never came out.
