Favourite Christmas Song

Following an in-depth discussion in a local public house thoughts turned to favourite Christmas songs (peeps with fancy Stereos on their RIBs need to be downloading stuff in prep. for the Christmassy Cruise).

Some favourites mentioned included

Slade 'So here it is...'

Frankie Goes to Borehamwood 'The Power of Love'

Chris Rea 'Driving Home for Christmas'

Emerson, Lake & Palmer ??????????

Any other favourites for cruising in the RIB?

That is my second favourite tune of all time. Right behind Don Henley - Boys of Summer (not really appropriate to Christmas though!)

How about: Money, Money, Money By ABBA.

Cos I haven't got any, by the end of Christmas.

What about the Song at the end of the Die Hard film, Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! That's quite festive.

You’re a lucky man I haven’t got any before or after
In fact I can’t afford to change my mind

You're OK. I am happy to confirm that that is indeed the full title of the song!

Hehehehe

Some good suggestions there for the compilation album.

Codprawn we'll include that only if you come along on the cruise.

Go on go on go on. Less posting, more cruising
