Holiday cheer, sure, it’s all well and good, but I love a depressing Christmas song and Caitlin Rose comes through on the countrified “You Never Come Home For Christmas.” With a light guitar strum and Zooey-meets-Patsy vocals, she sings, “You never come home for Christmas, and maybe it’s better that way.” Dang.
