Some people hang the holly, others decorate the tree, and a few even terrorize the neighborhood with off-key caroling.
Not us.
Here at Quick Stop Entertainment, we’re celebrating the holiday season by giving a little something back to you, our readers (you know who you are).
Every weekday leading up to the holiday break, we’ve got uber-exclusive gifts provided by a whole range of artists, actors, comedians, and studios. One a day, straight from them to you (and you can check out last year’s fun here).
Ain’t that cool?
It’s Christmas, and that means the fine folks over at AstroBase Go – Jackson Publick and Doc Hammer – have put together another special Venture Bros. holiday tune exclusively for Quick Stop…
In 2004, The Monarch & Dr. Girlfriend gave us their take on the Bowie/Crosby “Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy“, while 2005 brought the tender trio of The Monarch and Henchmen Nos. 21 & 24 belting out Dolly Parton’s “Hard Candy Christmas” during The Monarch’s incarceration, and 2006 delivered the epic “Venture Aid 2006”
This year, The Monarch & Dr. Girlfriend follow in the vocal footsteps of Shane McGowan and Kirsty MacColl by putting their own spin on the epic holiday classic “Fairytale Of New York”…

Wow… that was powerful. I had to listen to the original about a dozen times to get the monarch’s screeching voice out of my head. Cheers and Happy Christmas you silly bastards!

I have nothing but love for Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend…
and how happy I am for this cover… which is perfect for them and yet is so wrong at the same time. Marvelous.
You have filled my Christmas with rains of candy.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Oh… and happy Christmas and Merry New Year.

[…] In 2007, The Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend treated us to a rendition of The Pogues’ beautiful and tragic holiday song of love, entrapment, and desperation, “Fairytale of New York.” The song tells the story of a young Irish couple who emigrate to New York City, fall in love, and make each other’s lives miserable. The pain and devotion mirror The Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend’s own storyline, as they (in season three, which was in production at the time), reunite and get married. […]

[…] 5. David Bowie & Bing Crosby – “Peace on Earth/ Little Drummer Boy” In 1977 David Bowie appeared in Bing Crosby’s Merrie Olde Christmas, a television special, and sang a duet with the acgingcrooner. Often referred to as one of the weirder moments in television history, it’s something that has to be seen/ heard to be fully understood. The “Peace on Earth” portion of the duet was written especially for Bowie who in actuality was none too fond of “Little Drummer Boy”. This song is among several Christmas tunes parodied by the cast of Adult Swim’s Venture Bros. and released online. Check those out here. […]
