What music are you listening to ?

I definitely forgot the John Lennon song - as ridiculous as that sounds! Actually its my joint fave with Greg. Though Eric Idles little ditty does deserve a dishonorable mention.I don't think I've ever heard Joni's Xmas tune before.

 

That Suzanne Vega album is simply brilliant.

 

one reminded me of the other in the theme - simply unattainable and full of confusing mystery, might be why Billy Joel came to include some of the lyrics in:-

 

and coincidentally

 

Joni's 'River' wins hands down, but for me it's not a Christmas song like the others - just a great song that has the word Christmas in it

 

I forgot this track, not a huge fan of the track TBH,not even sure it's a crimbo song.

 

same here, yes it was/is - glad you remembered it, happy song/ happy memories of the Christmas when that came out.

fascinating - "never intended as a Christmas song, was actually meant to be an anti-war protest"..

Makes me think of "Galveston" that got most success with Glenn Campbell in a mainly uplifting style although the original writer was actually prodding the thinking behind Vietnam in reality.

 

excellent find R!

can't believe it.. although looking at the details, it was obviously on the cards.

What colour are those Ferraris?
