30 Days to Christmas!




The Countdown progresses, and it;s the final day of the 30's, and we have just nine songs to go on the 50 Best Christmas tunes, so here we go with today's effort!

It's one of my own personal faourites this one, as it must be the only song that contains the words, "scumbag, maggot, cheap lousy faggot" - yes, it's Shane McGowan & The Pogues, who teamed up with the sadly now departed Kirst MacColl.

The song was released in 1987, yep, 22 years ago, wow, and made it to number one in the irish cahrts, but number 2 in the UK charts, and was voted the Best Ever Christmas song three years running from 2004-2006 by VH1 viewers!

So, here it is...



Enjoy!
