In honor of WiiM reaching 7,000 followers on Twitter (or not), here’s a song about something that’s hampering the wings.
With yesterday’s Jonathan Ericsson injury, most of us were trying to find a silver lining heading into the final stretch of the holiday season. George Malik of Kukla’s Korner came up with the absolutely amazing idea of making a Christmas carol about the Wings’ injuries/problems to the tune of “The Twelve Days of Christmas.”
Therefore, without further ado, feel free to sing along to “The Twelve Days of Injuries.”
