The Richter Scales have given “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” a new twist. In their own words, “Desperate times call for desperate Christmas carols.” With lyrics like–”Have yourself a merry little Christmas, Drink your cares away, Times are bad and stock declines are here to stay…”–the mission is accomplished with wit and style.
The Richter Scales are a “bevy of gentlemen songsters,” singing a repetoire that includes American standards, Broadway, Motown, and contemporary music. Last year, their viral video, “Here Comes Another Bubble” was an Internet sensation. See photos of The Richter Scales on Flickr.
