44 days to Christmas!

It’s time for today’s Countdown to reach day 44, and we have an absolute belter here, not sure if it originally fell into the Christmas tunes list, but was pretty much the band’s only big hit, and so they were labelled as a one hit wonder – but what a song!


It made the top 15 in the uk during 19** but can be found on many Christmas albums, and I just love the tune – I remember when 7” singles were still the order of the day, I found this and bought it for 20p in a record sale long after the song had been released.

The band, from Germany, and were called Freiheit, and the song is “Keeping the Dream Alive”

It’s a quality tune!




Enjoy!
