Swedish garage legends The Hives have teamed up with 80s punk-pop queen Cyndi Lauper to record the track ‘A Christmas Duel’.
The tune kicks off with a crooning Howlin’ Pelle Almqvist confessing to sleeping with his girlfriend’s (Lauper) sister, before Lauper gets back at him with a rockin’ comeback.It has a very Christmassy vibe to it and doesn’t really sound like The Hives or Cyndi Lauper, but I can guarantee you it is pretty much the coolest Christmas song ever recorded.
But hey, why take my word for it? Hear it for yourself by clicking on right here. That’s right, it’s yours! For free! Consider it a Christmas present from The Hives and Cyndi Lauper.
