We must all have been exceedingly naughty children this year, because our collective yuletide punishment is much worse than a lump of coal from Santa: a new Crazy Frog song.

For those who've somehow managed to block out 2005, the computer-animated amphibian's songs' were bad Europop covers with an annoying high-pitched "ri-iiing-a-ring-ding" vocal.

This somehow manages to be worse: variously stomach-churning and pathetic covers of Last Christmas, Nellie The Elephant and We Wish You A Merry Christmas, plus a club version' of the title track.

If you ever find yourself in a club playing this song then you should seriously rethink your choice of night-time venue.

And if you must indulge in the novelty frenzy, why not buy The Killers' superior charity single instead?

Personally, I'd rather find a real-life crazy frog in my stocking than this horrific waste of plastic, time and money.
