Christmas is the Time to Say I Love You

There's nothing quite as great as a Christmas song that also rocks. Billy Squier was an early 80's rocker who never quite made it to legendary status (although my mother still thinks he was a "total hottie"). You might know him as the guy who sang "The Stroke", but I'll always remember him as the singer of one of my favorite Christmas songs. This video was filmed at MTV studios in 1981, a time when the "M" actually stood for something, and features the employees of the young network singing backup. Lord knows if this were done today the chorus would be filled with pregnant white trash 16 year olds and orange-skinned guidos.
