The Ukulele Alphabet: The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead by XTC
Letter X, Week 1
“The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead” by XTC
“Any kind of love is alright!”1 Released in 1992, still relevant in 2025.
Obviously I had a small pool of artists to pick from for the X entry here, and obviously we are going with the original XTC recording of this song, not the Crash Test Dummies cover. (Which I forgot existed! And now I’m sad I remembered.)
So enjoy yet another blast from the ’90s past… and start taking bets on what next week’s X song will be.
Listen to the original version of “The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead”:
