Righteous Pop Music - Volume 2. I'm not sure what's 'righteous' about it. Someone had the bright idea of using the tunes to popular television shows, and changing the lyrics to be more 'righteous' (I guess; that's the only explanation I have for the title).

No, it's not Christmas music, but it sure is ... er ... I'll let you be the judge. For the benefit of all mankind, the page has some samples.

I think that if there was a sample for track 12, “Mary and Joseph's Theme”, set to the tune of the Brady Bunch theme song ... well that would probably crack into my Horrible Christmas Music list. Unfortunately for me, I actually heard a snippet from that song in a story from NPR this morning, prompting me to look for more information and compose this post (too bad for you, huh?). Go to the page for Saturday's show, click on “Again with the Annoying Holiday Tunes” ... if you dare.

I do have to admit, though — there's a sad, strange part of me that really wants to hear “Elijah's Movin' on Up”, which is sung to the tune of the theme from The Jeffersons.
