Does anyone else like putting on playlists of Christmas songs/carols at this time of year? I’m a bit of a sucker for them. There’s nothing like songs about hot fires and sleigh rides when I’m sitting in 30 degree (Celsius) heat.
A nice one from the Moodies last studio album.

That's a poignant song and a beautiful video, Moogmodule; thanks for sharing it.
I myself love Christmas music, although we have always stuck with the traditional standards like this one. (It has to be Bing's version, of course.)

Oh yeah. Gotta also have some Frank and Bing etc!

every year I make a playlist, like Normandie, I do classics for the most part, plus Wonderful Christmas Time, Happy Xmas, war is over and Santa Claus is Coming to Town by Bruce.
My wife and i were laughing about Christmas songs because the classics were classics when we were growing up in the 70's so wow...

All the classics from Shaken Stevens, Wizzard, Slade, Miriah Carey, John & Paul, Elton John etc I even playbGary Glitters Christmas songs as it’s a good song.

The slade and Wizzard ones feature on mine as well. I especially like the Wizard one as it sounds like they just rewrote See My Baby Jive into a Christmas song.

I think John's was the only song of his with a nicked melody. Pretty good going John. ;D
