The Killers don't know the meaning of downtime. On a day off during their U.K. tour, the Vegas rockers recorded "I Feel It in My Bones" featuring Ryan Pardey on vocals. The band's seventh consecutive Christmas single takes the form of a smoky fist-pumper straight out of an 1980s alleyway, and a sequel to their 2007 track "Don't Shoot Me, Santa." You can preview the song today in honor of World AIDS Day.

“All Along the Watchtower”

The Jimi Hendrix Experience | 1968

Jimi Hendrix got hold of Bob Dylan's early John Wesley Harding tapes and in late 1967 recorded a version of "All Along the Watchtower" with the Experience in London. Dissatisfied with that first development, Hendrix brought those tapes with him to New York in early 1968 when he began work on Electric Ladyland. Eddie Kramer, Hendrix's engineer at the time, told Rolling Stone that Hendrix "was still looked upon by his basically white audience as the mammoth black guitar hero. There was a constant fight within him to expand himself." Hendrix's successful take on Dylan's work has long been recognized by the songwriter. "I liked Jimi Hendrix's record of this and ever since he died I've been doing it that way," Dylan wrote in the liner notes to his Biograph box set. "Strange how when I sing it, I always feel it's a tribute to him in some kind of way."
