Instant classic. Feist depicts the angel responding to the prayers of Stephen Colbert, on his Christmas special. Perfect casting:
Due to increased prayer amounts,
Seraphim will have delays
Servicing thy prayer accounts
For the next 5 million days
Feist's Brilliant Angel Christmas Carol on Stephen Colbert Christmas Show

Shame on thee and thank thee.
Although it could be viewed as a parody of corporate account servicing, there seems to be another agenda here:
Exposing the frustration people have with unanswered prayers.
Do your prayers have a 50% answer rate?
And do answers to your prayers seem to be on hold for months or even years?
No, no, no...all prayers are answered. sometimes the answer is "no" or "not yet".
I thought the song was the funniest Christmas song I have heard in a decade.
Even through i am a very good fan of Tobby Keith, i throught, Feist stole the show. I suggest she do a whole CD on the old dees Christmas favorits. Sung in the orginial verison. It should be a blast. You can also tell me "Merry Christmas". Merry Christmas Billy.
