I don't know who originated "Helter Skelter Christmas", but, when I saw it on Bandcamp, I had to download it. The version, here, is by The Juggling Potatos, a conglomeration of New Jersey artists (some only identified by first names--perhaps those are the Bedrosians...or the Potatos) and is included on a 42 track collection "A Bedrosian Christmas". The "album" contains pretty much any Christmas song you can think of (including a cover of Bob Rivers' "I Am Santa Claus"). Some of its OK, some of it is meh. But, right in the middle, there's "Helter Skelter Christmas"--a Christmas parody to the classic Beatles tune.
There was a video of "Helter Skelter Christmas" posted to YouTube in 2011...same lyrics, different performance, also from New Jersey. Coincidence? You decide. Regardless, that one was uncredited and unavailable. So I'll take any "Helter Skelter Christmas" I can get. Download the whole 42-song "A Bedrosian Christmas" or just the songs you want a la carte from Bandcamp.
