The island of misfit songs

These are songs that I've tried to use on Christmas tapes & CDs for years. For various reasons, they've never made it.

1. Great record but kept off by Kurt Wagner's fccin' language.
2. Not really Christmasy and it only works at the end of the disc.
3. Funny but kinda obscure and no fun explaining the joke to people that don't get it.
4. Only good once per year.

But all are worth hearing. Better than that Bing Crosby/David Bowie song anyway. I hate that song.

All four of these bands are from the South. I wonder if that means anything?
