Tis The Season

[maggiebee]

I never think it's Christmasy until I hear the Pogues singing Fairytale of New York. Well heard it for the first time this year in a local shopping centre. Now where's my Christmas tree??...........

[Elina]

Heyy Maggie, not far behind you, little delayed here in feeling it yet, but I want to!! Well if you've heard the Pogues!! Where's my Christmas tree? X

[Butterbun]

I really don't feel Christmassy at all, I feel more like Scrooge at the moment. Bah, humbug!

[Hopkirk]

Well I don't think it should be on the list of Christmas songs, it's so awful.

For those who don't know it, here are some of the words.

You're a bum
You're a punk
You're an old *** on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot

[Hopkirk]

sl ut

[ummmm]

It's the best xmas song.

[jno]

isn't everyone's Christmas like that, Hopkirk, or is it just me?

[maggiebee]

Sure Hoppy, bit of a sad song about lost love but....................

The boys of the NYPD choir
Still singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing
Out for Christmas day

[Hopkirk]

No, the best Christmas song isn't played any more,
Rock and Roll Christmas by Gary Glitter

(I don't condone his actions)

I wouldn't have thought for a second you would, Hopkirk, music is music after all.
