Frog Stand is a tiny label with all of three artists on its roster, but ostensibly the label of Clare and The Reasons, the Brooklyn based Indie Chamber Pop band. Last year, Frog Stand issued a free digital Christmas EP featuring one track from each of the artists in the house (this year, that digital EP--plus the new song--is being offered free with any purchase from the Frog Stand store; but you could probably still find it free on the Net without a whole lot of effort). This year, Clare decided to cut a new holiday song, adding Wham's "Last Christmas" to the Frog Stand discography. There are more versions of "Last Christmas" out there than you could conceivably find sticks to shake at them. But this cover is different for two reasons (no pun intended). One: Clare makes this look gooood! Two: This version of "Last Christmas" features Ella "Tha Cat" Fitzgerald--you'll hear her, I promise--and that is something that simply cannot be ignored on this site. As renditions of "Last Christmas" go, this was a pretty good one. Find it at Frog Stand. Thanks to The Late Greats Music Blog for this tip (and for the picture of Ella).
