Favourite Christmas Song
 
I thought I'd start this discussion as well so it can run parallel to my topic about people's favourite carol.

Maggy has already started us off on this by stating her favourite Christmas song:

Fairytale is a very good one; personally I think Greg Lake’s I believe in Father Christmas is hard to beat. As part of my job at this time every year is trying to unpick the celebration of Christ’s nativity from everything else that comes with this time of year, I find his lyrics prescient, and the video is poignant too.

Another vote for Greg Lake.

His use of Lieutenant Kijé by Prokofiev is sheer genius.

At school we used to sing "Come and Join the Celebration"

Brings back so many memories..... And now I work in the school where I was a little boy so each Christmas the memories come flooding back.

I've just been setting the music and lights up in our hall for the children's performance.
