It's what happened when you decided to use my privately owned vehicle as a company car, then filled with State, as opposed to offering me a company car and servicing your State.
Little bits of sell-outs and a screaming CowDog thing trying to move in anything but stills.
What makes this song such a classic...is that this is the reality of what goes on in too many households throughout the world at Christmas time...couples falling out ...sad but true.
Always like to hear this song this time of the year... especially like the way this video included the lyrics to the song. Very well done. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!
its the bbbbbbbeeeeeeeeesssstttttttttttt Christmas ssssoooooonggggggggg eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevvvvvvvvveerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I live in the USA but was born in England and lived there till 2004. This song always reminds me of Christmas with my family, unfortunately I cannot spend it with them but miss them very much..........always puts a tear in my eye when I hear this......

i remember my dad would play this song every christmas, but now he has passed away, it has become a christmas tradition that my whole family litterally cries with joy every christmas. :) :)
This, a cup of tea and snow just makes Christmas for me. I'm a man of simple things and for me those things are heaven. Best Christmas song ever, and one of the best any time of the year.
Song sends shivers down my spine everytime I hear it. In total agreeance with 2503vinny! Kirstie, wherever you may be, happy christmas - and to everyone else, happy christmas to you all too
loves this song sooo much reminds me so much of my brother being held at her majesty's pleasure this xmas. see u soon bro but u shudve been a good boy:)

one of the all-time Christmas anthems and reminds me of a drunken Irish chef called Matthew who worked for me in Cornwall, UK who sang this word perfect from the juke box.
Can I point out one section of the words are wrong... it is not 'happy Christmas your arse' at 2.22, but 'happy christmas you auld sod'.
Fan of The Pogues? Check out their friends Greenland Whalefishers from Norway (est. 1994)! Critics today says Greenland Whalefishers has taken the heritage from The Pogues and developed it into something different and their own. Punk fanzines all over the world describes Greenland Whalefishers as The Pogues on speed or The Pogues turned up to eleven on attitude, speed and sound. Google for Greenland Whalefishers website for more info, videos and lyrics!!!
have different songs remind me of different things-this sadly friends death-was talking of him in pub -handed stranger money he dropped so was offered freebie on jukebox-chose this and was playing till 4am @home Christmas Day- found out at 2am Kirsty MacCalls death Dec 18th 2000-friends Dec18th 2009 RIP BILL M8-always will remember you when this heard Duncan John & Tony
Ha ha, another couple who claim this as "their song". I though myself and my husband would be the only ones. We wanted it as our first dance at our wedding but decided it would cause too many questions that we couldn't be bothered to answer.
my uncle produced/engineered this song when they recored it...and story is that when it was wrote and recored they had gone through two big black bags full of alcohol, my dad had to clean it up.
this is my favourite christmas song ever! i almost wish it wasn't a christmas song so i could get away with listening to it all year round. it could make it less special though?
Canada will have to phone it's mom up and complain, as it seemed to decide every day since that's simply who it would run to to cry.
Cheer up, you dumb fuckers. Go launch a matt paint offensive or something.
