简介

"Joel, the Lump of Coal" is a song by Las Vegas-based rock band The Killers feat. Jimmy Kimmel, released on December 1, 2014. The song marks the ninth consecutive year in which the band has released a Christmas song. As with their seven previous releases, all proceeds from this song goes to AIDS charities as part of the Product Red campaign. The song's announcement and debut occurred on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, where the music video and a montage about the recording process aired. The animated music video first aired on Jimmy Kimmel Live! (December 1, 2014). The style of the video is similar to that of the stop motion animated versions of "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" (1964) and "Frosty the Snowman" (1969) in digital collage form. The song tells the story of Joel, a lump of coal living at te North Pole, until Santa takes him to a naughty boy for Christmas. At the end, selfless Joel turns himself into a diamond to make the naughty boy happy. The song is written by Jimmy Kimmel, Jonathan Bines, and the Killers (Flowers, Keuning, Vannucci and Stoermer) with additional material by Tony Barbieri and the video is directed by Jonathan Kimmel produced by Jennifer Sharron and edited by Jason Bielski. Animated by Sean Michael Solomon, Julian Petschek, Jonathan Kimmel, Jesse Griffith and Patrick Campbell. Jason Bielski Editor. Bernd Reinhardt Director of Photography and Jim Alario camera.
