So, what’s the song that, when you hear it, gets you in the festive mood? The one that gets you up to dance at a party, or ready to eat too much, or makes you look forward to spending quality time with friends and/or family?

So, what’s the song that, when you hear it, gets you in the festive mood? The one that gets you up to dance at a party, or ready to eat too much, or makes you look forward to spending quality time with friends and/or family?

 

A few days ago, I revealed that two such songs for me are It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year by Andy Williams and Driving Home for Christmas by Chris Rea. But there are many others that spring to mind without needing to look them up.

 

I could have named John Lennon’s Happy Xmas, War is Over; Slade’s Merry Christmas Everybody; Maria Carey’s I Don’t Want a Lot for Christmas (though my favourite version is featured below); Wizzard’s I Wish it Could be Christmas Every Day; Band Aid’s Do They Know it’s Christmas?; George Michael’s Last Christmas; Nat King Cole’s The Christmas Song; and last, but by no means least White Christmas by Bing Crosby. I’m sure you could name many more.

You're a bum
You're a punk

Entirely agree. The best ever. The Pogues and the lovely Kirsty MacColl.

Celebrating the birth of an invisble friend for adults never appealed to me. Even less when it became just a commercial opportunity to exploit in everyway possible.

 

"What happened" I here you say, simple, I grew up!

 

Bah humbug!
