Fairytale of New York - The Pogues

 

After Thanksgiving the Christmas season traditionally starts. This is what I consider the best Christmas song of all-time.

The Pogues - Fairytale of New York

 

With Thanksgiving now over - our attention can now turn to Christmas and for my money this is the best Christmas song of them all.

It being Thanksgiving the radio stations will now turn to playing Christmas music. For my money Fairytale of New York is the best Christmas song ever made. Bar none. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Fairytale of New York is back in the UK Top 10. Something that should be a holiday tradition.

We need to adopt that tradition in the US.
