LIAMW Holiday Music – Joseph, Who Understood

Today’s song is my absolute favorite contemporary Christmas song, and it is done by a band with the unlikely name of The New Pornographers.  A friend of mine asked recently why a band doing such a nice song has such an awful name.  Here’s the explanation: Many people assume that it comes from television preacher Jimmy Swaggart calling rock ‘n’ roll “the new pornography.” At any rate, enjoy “Joseph, Who Understood,” about the least appreciated person in the Christmas story.
