Well more of a proposal... Since we almost never get it on or around the Christmas Holiday. I think the band should change the name and call in a FAN CLUB SINGLE instead of a CHRISTMAS SINGLE! And maybe not always include a xmas song on it? They can get creative and release it a different a time of year each year? Just a thought!

    +1 on the title.

    ...and now it's called an "annual gift" according to the email I got reminding me to renew.

    How often do we get the magazine. Once a year?

    Guarantee that the 10c has been just copy and pasting that message into about 200 reply emails a day the last few weeks.

    you mean instead of starting a thread asking people who don't know anything about the 45, you went and asked the people that would know? they should ban you from here for not following protocol ;):mrgreen:

    Even if it said holiday single, it doesn't mean X-mas. The 4th of July is a holiday. :D

    I say keep it a Christmas single (will that get me kicked out of the ten club for not showing reverence with an "X") anyway, because if there is not some sort of time frame, then the years, not months will overlap and the 2010 fan club single will come out after the next 2 studio albums.

    My bet lies with a cover of "Under Pressure" by Ed with Ben Harper & Relentless 7 backed with "Throw Your Arms Around Me" by Ed with Liam Finn. Or maybe "Red Mosquito" with Ben Harper on slide.

    They don't call it the Christmas single anymore because of all the PC pussies in the world who get offended by the word Christmas. Hence it's the "holiday" single. Which holiday? Well, that's what makes it fun.

    From my renewal email from TC:


    You will enjoy:

    -Newsletter
    -An Annual Gift
    -Contest Eligibility
    -Exclusive Merchandise and Ticketing Offers
    -And any other cool PJ staples that we may come across.


    ...no mention of a single, so I supposed it's optional for them to make the "annual gift" a single, let alone a "christmas" single.

    Excuse me? I "proved to be full of shit"? How so? Please elaborate in depth on what specifically I said that "proved" this to you. Go ahead... search my posts and pull a direct-quote. I expect an answer to your accusation.
