Jon Anderson’s “I Saw Three Ships” [X-mas Audio #7 / Curiosities #31]

I thought that Live Aid song, “Don’t They Know It’s Christmas?”, was a really, really BAD X-mas tune, but I had no idea how much CRAP was out there.

Jon Anderson, of Yes, put out perhaps the worst holiday cut of all when he took a WHACK at “I Saw Three Ships.” Not only is the video the stuff of legend (spaceships, wine, weird plotlines I can’t even follow), the song itself is a Buck Rogers-esque galaxy-quest that has no place underneath a Christmas tree or even stuffed down a stocking.

I wish I could say this is the worst of the bunch but I’ve got a few more for ya, stay tuned …
