She & Him to release Christmas album in October, unveil cover art

She & Him are one step ahead of everyone when they will release a Christmas themed album in the month of October. The precise release date is the 25^th of October, and it will come out via Merge. The album will contain twelve tracks, including ones called ‘Silver Bells’, ‘Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas’, and ‘Little Saint Nick’. Now, how Christmassy is that?

So whatever happened to little Saint Nick, was the question everyone was asking during the reunion of the class of 68. Remember, one said, you are talking about the boy who once released a nine point plan to evenly distribute lunch money amongst 6^th and 7^th graders (a plan that despite its good intentions failed to materialize, although he did succeed in getting a wedgie out of it). Janine told me she couldn’t help but have visions of little Saint Nick (for that is what we called him) in that Annie Hall sequence where boys and girls announce that their future selves are into leather or drugs. I knew better, however. But I kept my mouth shut. A decent man always does. What could I say? That Nick had, for years, been a dedicated member to a governmental advice group concerning education and environment, like everyone always thought he would end up? All the stories make for a way better night than this sobering truth, for who likes someone to end up exactly as people had always expected them to, except for parents?
