hey everybody if you love this song let's get it to number one as a fitting tribute to Poly and the current climate go to face book and type in Poly styrene black Christmas number 1 for christmas
Sad, Poly u were unique brilliant and beautiful and you'll be missed. A dayglo ray of light in a world of black leather spikes , u were the true meaning of punk, so individual, when we all looked the same u were teaching us all a lesson. Condolences to your loved ones :0(
@ZLUGGO I've no idea, but I kind of assumed it was Celeste, yeah. God I feel sad today. I never saw X-Ray Spex live, only bought a couple of singles, but suddenly there's a big hole in my life.
Cool, Poly and I feel the same way about Xmas, its just an excuse to buy a bunch of crap for people because thats the way we were taught to say I love you.
Poly, you look spectacular! And your daughter looks just like you. Good luck with the new album. I hope to see you tour. And damn, why wasn't I informed that The X-ray Spex gig was a one off? I would have traveled from the States. Please more gigs!!!!!
I'm just floored - amazing song - and the best looking "no, we're not sisters - we are mother and daughter' act since the Judds. Wow. Can't wait to hear more.
This is a marked improvement on the pile of shit Christmas tune she put out with Goldblade last year, maybe it's some form of repentance! Still this isn't a patch on White Christmas. Santa Claus was a real bad guy? Maybe you'd be too if you only emptied your sacks once a year!
I never cared for christmas,always made me sad..Don't remember many happy ones.
For a number of reasons.I go through the motions but not really seeing anything.I remember one that was special to me, out of my whole life I can say that one ment something to me.Because a friend and I were going through some rough times.It made my Christmas more then he will ever know..Wish I could thank him for the white christmas he gave me then.The only one I ever had...
Great song! Hope it gets heard as widely as possible, so the world gets a little more understanding that christmas gets a lot of us down. Really down...
Awesome track. RiotinlondonW1

So sad to hear of Poly's passing. Another great woman artist gone, as the new wave of talentless stick figure girls marches on.
