Of all the holiday traditions that come to mind, the one that strikes fear into the hearts of mortal men is the ancient, inedible, store-bought fruitcake that keeps getting passed around. John Riggio's new country-flavored tune takes this idea to a silly extreme, with great results. The melody is fairly simple and repetitive, so once your students learn a verse and chorus, they'll know how the whole tune goes. This song is great fun, and it's destined to become an "everlasting" favorite! (from Music K-8, Vol. 11, No. 2)
