Yeah, I'm a sucker for the Christmas 'single'.
I guess now that it is a very long lost and distant cousin that you 'promise to write to' but 'never get round to' if you know what I mean.
Christmas 'music' to me always meant Slade / Wizzard / John Lennon and Paul McCartney, closely followed in latter years by Jona Lewie, The Pogues & Kirsty McCall, The Three Wise Men and maybe Greg Lake, Elton (Watford) John etc...so I've tried to hark (the herald) back to those days with any Christmas 'release' that I've put my name to since 2002.
This year is no different.
The Blondie track was a massive hit around the Christmas end of 1980 and 'Pipes Of Peace' was a contender in 1983.
If you haven't encountered Macca's 'Wonderful Christmastime' by now then the thrill will be all yours and JLo's hit was me paying homage to myself a few years ago...
Anyway, it's GHP, it's Pop, it's throwaway and it still has it's tongue firmly in it's cheek for four minutes or so.
Download / Digest / Delete like the best mince pies should be.
See you in 2009.
Happy Christmas,
Mark.
