Your parents probably don't know who The Hold Steady is. But! We'll bet if you played them some of their music today, maybe while you're decorating your tree or making ginerbread houses or whatever, they might dig them. Especially if they are the type of parents who grew up tailing Bruce Springsteen tours through the country. Play them this cover Craig Finn and crew recorded of Billy Squier's "Christmas Is the Time to Say I Love You" and we'll bet when the sax kicks in, you will finally start to bond with your parents over music. Speaking of which, did you hear The Beatles are on Spotify??? Just wow. Christmas miracles dropping from the friggin' sky over here.
