WHAT THE HELL? I've just realized that it's "A winters tale". Spent the last 20 years thinking that it was "A Winters Day". Literally all my life I sing day where he sings tale.

As I've said before the music from 60s to early 85 was just that music not cocophany
like today.This is one absolute classic from David wish they would play it more at Christmas rather than BONEY M am so sick of their music.I think Buddy Holly,Elvis
Little Richard ,am sure there were more started the revolution bless them but
reminds me of a party I was invited to by a girlfriend who had not asked her parents if i could attend. On arrival they told me to go home. It was snowing and cold NO buses were running so a 7 mile walk was for me. As I left the house this song was playing. Laugh now but not then. Nice song after I thawed out
I never understood why it was used as a Christmas song. Christmas isn't even mentioned in it, and it's hardly the most cheerful of songs! Winter is being used here as a metaphor for the death of a relationship. I love it anyway, though.
Classic.x

Absolutely superb!
The production, orchestra, David's voice, just about everything about it.
My second-favourite Christmas tune, but only just lagging behind.
