Post by: Old Cruser on December 09, 2013, 08:10:47 PM
Not sure if I have a favourite as I enjoy many Christmas Carols or Songs.

The one below is a blast from my younger days.

Just wondered if others woud like to share some more in the run up to Christmas

I like most christmas songs/carols, but i find that christmas music from the past few years can-not compete with say music from the 80's. Take the band aid do they know its Christmas, the original I loved, everything after that its a no no...
All the above though I enjoy :)
A spaceman came travelling i like though not keen on de burgh Mary's boy chile by Boney M and Gaudete by steeleye span :)

I've just got back from a 400 miles round trip to see my sisters, nephews and nieces in Kent and to visit my Mum's and Dad's grave so here's a special Christmas song.
