On cold mornings I don’t think “Do I feel like wearing a scarf today?” as much as “Do I feel like losing a scarf today?”

We teamed up with Jack Black and Jason Segal to make this Holiday music video, which came out today. It’s called “Peace on Earth / Little Drummer Boy,” a tribute to the 1977 Bowie/Crosby duet.

The song is available on iTunes, with all proceeds going to Blue Star Families, a non-profit created for and by military families.

Merry Christmas!
