"My sincerest apologies, y'all! Yesterday got away from me and I missed a submission! But it's okay because today, I got TWO. This first one is short and sweet, EMPHASIS ON THE SWEET. It isn't really Broadway-related, but it's one of my favorite internet videos. I guess we could make a stretch and say it's Little Shop-esque? I dunno. Just enjoy seven seconds of heaven."


"Dolly Parton. Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. Still I won't let sorrow bring me way down. I first discovered this song when Rachel Lee of Iconis & Family performed it at a Christmas show years and years ago. I quickly grew obsessed with it and I had always loved Miss Parton and my CHRISTMAS DREAMS came true this year when Joe Iconis asked me to sing it as The Krampus in the 11th Annual Joe Iconis Christmas Extravaganza. My Krampus doesn't compare with Dolly Parton though. Watch this and understand why!"
