What does Jimmy Eat World do after their record goes platinum, toured the globe many times over, had four successful singles at commercial radio and constant MTV video airplay? They release a limited edition, Christmas-themed 7" on indie Better Looking Records. The record, on green vinyl, will be limited to 3,000, and contains two tracks - the A side is a cover of WHAM!'s "Last Christmas," and the B side is the band's cover of Prodigy's "Firestarter" [previously reported about here]. The 7" will be released on December 10th, and can currently be preordered here.

wham did not fucking rock...I didnt even come remotely close to rocking. Props to Jimmy Eat World though for putting out a 7" on a small label. Nice to see that MTV hasnt completly changed em.

well sure this is cool and everything, but they wouldn't have done it if they didn't get 30298095328532$ for the firestarter cover on that lame cover-cd. 1+ Reply
