  • I think, everybody will listen to this song 50 years later. Wonderful.

  • To me this IS christmas

  • I love this. It's brilliant!!!

  • I love this

  • auf gehts ... weihnacht macht wieder laune

  • BRILLIANT, LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE , TULL DO. LUV THEM . ALWAYS. XXX.

  • The best song

  • You have to admire Ian Anderson for sticking to his guns in his old age and continuing to do the music he loves, instead of desperately trying to stay in the spotlight like a lot of aging rockers do.

  • Wonderful !!!

    I love it..............

  • since "Rock Island" came out I've listened to this song every Christmas Day! :)

    Today I used this page to hear it!

  • Comment removed

  • For decades Ian Anderson has penned some of the finest music ever recorded. This beautiful song demonstrates the intelligence and brilliance of Jethro Tull. None of the crap being churned out in today's pathetic music industry even comes close. Keep 'em coming! 

  • Calling for his sons and daughters. Old man I am now, and I feel the call to my children, and the call to my father.

  • Mistake in the lyrics, methinks:

    It's "He's got a part of us to keep, now", not "Got appointments to keep now".

    But yeah, I love this tune!

  • I can't believe I'd never heard this till now. What a classic.

  • Thats such a nice song, thanks for the video, remember listening to this a few years ago

  • good song, he,s still got that knopfler sound!

  • Imádom éjjel nappal csak ezt halgatnám ez nálam csillagos 10-es

  • "Maybe it's always time for another Christmas song." This song brings tears to my eyes.

  • perfect....

  • Egyszer láttam Őt a pecsában, fantasztikus volt, ahogy ez a nóta is.

    Kösz Ian!

  • I'm playing this with some firends of mine on next week at school, because we have organized a little Progressive Rock and Blues concert. I hope the girls will love it and our way to play it, with much more piano.

  • ...S U P E R....jak zresztą wszystkie ich piosenki..

  • brilliant, one of the few that actually do a good christmas song

  • Proving..proving that the blood is strong

  • perfect.....!!!!!!!

  • Fantastic!

  • i love his voice ..Merry Christmas..;d

  • @IzaJakubosz97 :):):)

    I better say nothing...

  • Brilliant song! One of my top Xmas tunes!

  • " Take a minute to remember the part of you

    that might be the old man calling me."

    I've loved this song since I first heard it. =)

  • incredible tune!

  • Magnifico come sempre!!!!

  • I think Ian Anderson is the best musician.

    He has written so many Songs and he can play so many instruments :)

    I love this Music.

    Best Music ever

  • ian anderson is god!

  • He's a very good musician.

  • this version is better than the rock island one.

    this song has already got me in the christmas spirit

  • This is the one from Rock Island.

  • ah yes. my mistake. the image is just a bit misleading.

  • @themusicman624

    yeah, dude, this is straight from the album...

  • "Everyone comes from somewhere - even if they've never been there"

    I LOVE this song. Thanks for the post!!

  • Tull are amazing. They even make Christmas songs sound great.

    Was this ever released as a single from Rock Island ? If not why not ?

  • Merry Christmas

  • i love it :X

  • proving that the blood is strong

  • what do you want to express by that?^^ i know that this is the end of the song... =D

  • strong song, strong lyrics...

    it's just my own way of expression. never mind ;)

  • @JethroTull4you :

    Because you asked :

    "Dreaming of his sons and daughters, and proving ---

    proving that the blood is strong."

    Means the strength of family links; which is natural because Christmas is a family feast.

  • @nelimsky ,

    'Take a minute to remember the part of you that might be the Old Man calling me.'

    That's *really* what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.

  • what is the picutre in the video it looks very familliar

  • Es el álbum...

  • Excellent! Best band in the world!

  • This should be number one this year.

  • oh yes...

  • Merry Christmas to friends everywhere in the United States, Canada and Germany

    It gets me in a really christmasy mood. Jethro Tull is an amazing band, and I'm only 15 ! All my friends are like. 'Who are they?' Thanks to my dad, I love them !!

  • great song...album....YEA.....WHERE IS VOL. 2?

  • I'm sorry, I don't have that album... I took this song from "Rock Island" and only used the cover of "The Christmas Album" to show the relation to my other video:

    "A Christmas Song" from "Living with the Past" album...

    (see "Related videos")

  • I love this album. Every year I start playing it in mid October, I regard it not so much a Christmas album, more a Winter album. How about volume 2 Ian?????????

  • Me too :) this year i started listening to it one month ago :)

    nice nice, very nice :)
