From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Have Yourself a Sweary Little Christmas is a Christmas-themed comedy album by the Amateur Transplants, released in 2010.[1]

Production[edit]

The album was created by Adam Kay and Suman Biswas after their song "London underground" received several million views on YouTube in 2005.[2] The duo began writing the songs for the album in 2009 and some of the songs from "Have yourself a sweary little Christmas" were played in live performances by the band throughout this year. These songs also appeared on their 2009 live album In Theatre,[3] which hit number 1 in the itunes comedy chart. They later decided to write a full Christmas album, with the intention of releasing it before Christmas Day 2010. They were successful in doing so, and the album parodied many Christmas songs, including "A fairytale of New York" and "feed the world".[citation needed] The songs contain very coarse and often offensive language and lyrics; subsequently, a bleeped version was released along with the album.[4]
