Right now, I'm tuned in to Metal Express Radio, Norway, via a
Shoutcast.com stream, and it doesn't sound much like Christmas.
More like Iron Maiden in their usual mood, actually.

When I got my ADSL line my consumption of broadcast radio collapsed
to little more than nothing.  There's a lot of free Internet radio
out there, with all kinds of music, and few or no commercials, idiot
DJs, or inane call-in games that plague broadcast radio.

There's a version by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts.  Never listened
to the lyrics, I'm afraid.
