  • Chris Isaak loves holiday music. This year he released his second studio album of holiday tunes, Everybody Knows It's Christmas, and hit the road for his standard holiday tour to share his holiday and non-holiday music with fans. Chris joined Billboard's Behind the Setlist to talk about writing holiday songs such as "Almost Christmas" and "Help Me Baby Jesus," working with famed producer Dave Cobb in Nashville on the recordings and meeting some of his musical idols such as Roy Orbison. Isaak is best known for his timeless song "Wicked Game," from his 1989 album Heart Shaped World that reached No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1991 after it was featured in the David Lynch film Wild at Heart. Heart Shaped World is certified double-platinum with more than 2 million sold in the U.S. His 1995 album Forever Blue is certified platinum in the U.S. and spawned two well-known singles, "Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing" and "Somebody's Crying."
