25 Days or Less of Christmas Songs - #8: Mistress for Christmas

AC/DC's "Mistress for Christmas" is somewhat unique among Christmas themed rock songs. It was not released as a single or as part of a holiday themed compilation. Instead, the song was released on AC/DC's 1990 album The Razors Edge with little fanfare or distinction. Though it remains a favorite around the holidays on classic rock radio stations, it would seem that "Mistress for Christmas" is an otherwise unheralded song. Is it obvious that I know nothing about AC/DC?

I'd never heard of it. It's weird to see a band do a Christmas song without the blatant aim of fastening onto the teats of the holiday cash cow.
