Hello. I'm looking for info on a recording I used to hear every year(For some reason once they were taken over by ClearChannel they stopped playing it) at Christmas time on my local Oldies station, WMJI 105.7 in Cleveland, 0H. The recording is of a guy with either an Irish or British accent writing letters to his "true love" telling her of the chaos that ensues after she literally sends him the twelve gifts of Christmas. With each letter the birds and people being sent become more overwhelming, the narrator's mother consumes growing amounts of first alcohol, then lithium before she is finally put in "a home for the mentally bewildered." He signs each letter "Yours, Governors(pronounced GOOV-NURS)". The only bright spot is when he thanks her for her generosity in sending the five gold rings. In the last letter he ask her who the hell does she think she is and tells her he is a broken man. The entire recording is spoken, it is not a song. Whew! Sorry for that long winded description but I want to give as much info as possible because I'd really love to be able to hear this again. I'm also looking for a Christmas song presumably titled "My Sombrero's Too Big" and sung by someone sounding like Speedy Gonzalez (from WB's Looney Tunes). Thanks for any help. -Tigerpaw28
