Move over, ‘Fairytale of New York'— Beldon Haigh has just gifted us the quirkiest Christmas anthem of 2024. ‘White House Meltdown Christmas Day’ is the perfect cocktail of toe-tapping holiday cheer and razor-sharp satire. Think of it as the love child of ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’ and a Saturday Night Live skit, complete with a side of nuclear brinkmanship.
The video alone deserves an Oscar for holiday hilarity. Decked out in decadent decor that screams Trumpian opulence, the surreal spectacle of Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and Kim Jong Un squabbling over gifts is enough to make even the Grinch laugh. The Trump tree topper and “Kremlin Gremlin” lyrics are a stroke of twisted genius, but it’s the chorus that steals the show. Its grand, almost theatrical delivery makes you want to grab an eggnog and join the madness.
Musically, Beldon Haigh channels the festive bombast of ‘70s Christmas classics while adding their signature satirical twist. The song soars with a huge, sing-along-worthy hook and arrangements that feel both nostalgic and refreshingly current. And just when you think the ride is over, Boris Johnson shows up to wreck a perfectly good cake. It’s pure chaos—and utterly delightful.
If Christmas 2024 needed an anthem to match its absurdity, this is it. Beldon Haigh once again cements their reputation as storytellers who mix humour, heart, and social critique into tracks that are as entertaining as they are thought-provoking. Put this on your playlist, pour yourself a drink, and prepare for a ‘White House Meltdown’ of your own. Cheers!
