Good grief! The dankest Christmas story I've ever heard. But, well read. A bit like Christmas in a minor key.

the words paupers and mangled in the same sentence don't bode well in a song

Does anyone have any other "cheery" Christmas records? Please post them... This one makes Scrooge and Tiny Tim sound like a happy bunch...

That Christmas Shoes song is pretty dang dark! This song could be construed as a little dark depending on where your mindset is, "A Mad Russian's Christmas" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6P9xxJ4V7no

I agree! Christmas Shoes is quite the tearjerker, though it does a great job of reminding us of the less fortunate, especially around this time of year.
