[Jooles99]

Probably the only cover version of this Christmas classic to do it any justice.

Wow, this is amazing ........ the power of the spoken word. A picture paints a thousand words but the spoken word gives meaning beyond compare.

Just heard Ronan Collins playing this on RTÉ Radio 1 a moment ago. Very nice! Nollaig Shona daoibh!

@DoctorT2010 Ronan plays this one every year. I have actually never heard any other presenter playing it. For me, it wouldn't be Christmas without it.

[anthonynewsome]

it really puts a different slant on this amazing song -

[TheGuitarjerry1126]

Excellent!

[howardalan7]

Remember hearing this on the radio once and it just stopped me in my tracks, shows that often great lyrics work across all mediums.

[STAGENAME1]

@howardalan7 I'll bet it was on the Ronan Collins Show on RTÉ Radio 1.
