Silent Nightclub is the sixth album by Richard Cheese, released September 26, 2006 (see 2006 in Music). It contains one original song, "Christmas in Las Vegas" as well as an appearance by "Weird Al" Yankovic at the end of the song "I Melt with You".
The album is promoted as a Christmas album, although there are only five songs most would label as "Christmas music" (the title being a reference to the song "Silent Night"). Many of the selections are pop songs that can be stretched to fit the motif; for example, Madonna's "Like a Virgin" is used in reference to the Virgin Mary (although the song itself has nothing to do with the mother of Jesus); Beyoncé's "Naughty Girl" is used in reference to Santa Claus and his list of children who are naughty or nice; and Vanilla Ice's "Ice Ice Baby", which repeats the word "ice", and therefore fits in with the winter theme.
