25 Days of Holiday Songs 2023: “I’m Gonna Spend My Christmas With A Dalek” by the original Go Go’s

Share This Post

This group may be called The Go Go’s but it is not the band with Belinda Carlisle and Jane Wiedlin; this set of Go Go’s did not sing “Vacation” or “We Got The Beat.” They’re from the UK and they pre-date the more famous band of the same name by a decade and a half and their signature song is a “Peter Gunn Theme”-inspired wish to spend the Most Wonderful Time of the Year with villainous aliens from the Doctor Who universe that invade Earth and shout EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE! Yeah, I can see why you’d want to hang out with Daleks for the holidays.
