  • @0875086192 Have none, bought the CD

  • First time I've heard this Slade version of the classic Christmas tune and I'm impressed. They stayed true to the original while also staying true to themselves at the same time, a class act. I'll raise a glass to them. :-)

  • Thank you for posting this ACDCfan. Like many, I never knew of Slade's version- and its easily the best take I've heard of this song. Somebody has got to get a campaign going for this for Christmas Top of the Pops 2011. Yet another example of why Slade is the most underrated rock band of all-time.

  • @orange8129 I agree they are the most underrated band ever, very sad. But thx for the comment, rock on!

  • By far and away the best version I have ever hear, Brilliant.

  • Great meaty version. Anyone know why Slade didn't appear at Band Aid?

    Long live The Mighty Slade!!

  • @bigmagic96 They had something on Geldoff, if you listen to DO You Believe In Miracles the meantion a man called ''the mouth'' thats Geldoff. I dont know what they were split about but it was something. But Ive actually seen a recording of the Band Aid crew with Jim Lea on bass miming the song on a tv show

  • @ACDCFan15Swe Christmas TOTP's '84

  • sick song

  • Thank you for finally uploading this,i was beginning to think id dreamt it

  • @paulhamerton Haha, its very much for real sir. Glad you liked it!

  • Wow!!!! What a great version.

  • I just bought Crackers on Itunes--there are two versions with the same tracks, one is cheaper.

    Is Noddy the lead vocals on this song?

  • @crecrecords Yes but Jim sings: ''Well to night thank god its them, instead of you''

    and it sounds like theres chorus on major parts of the song

  • It is/was only officially available on the Crackers VINYL album, due to copyright issues, hence why it's not on the cd. But, ALL royalties from the slade version went to the Band Aid charity.

  • Brilliant. Absolutely briliant. Best version ever.

  • You're right there =)

  • Love this song. Didn't even know Slade had their own version.

  • Neither did I till my dad bought the Crackers album

  • @ACDCFan15Swe you and your dad have great taste in music, rock on

  • @mickydoyle48 Thank you very much, the same to you sir =)

  • CHRISTMAS!!!!!

  • LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

  • I think it's great too =)
