#DailyChristmasSong It's the mighty Fall! A Peel session from 1994. Merry-uh! Christmas-uh! www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6zZ...
#DailyChristmasSong
#DailyChristmasSong today is this soul classic. Those sharp-cornering horns! Those funky, fatback drums! The sheer sexy cheek of the lyric! The line "in case anyone smells a mouse" ... my god, I love this song so much www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0No...
#DailyChristmasSong. Since we're on the home run, a special treat! One I wrote, eleven years ago now! The video uses clips, obvs, from various versions of A Christmas Carol. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIn6...
#DailyChristmasSong time! So @emmaleemoss.bsky.social has already been featured once this year, but I can't NOT highlight this from the genuinely brilliant album she made with Tim off of Ash an absurd 13 years ago (!). The whole album's great. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiX9...
#DailyChristmasSong This one is objectively terrible, but it has to be heard to be believed. This was officially sanctioned. That *is* Anthony Daniels. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxAZ...
It's only a week until Christmas Eve, so I thought we'd break out one of the big guns for today's #DailyChristmasSong. Greg Lake's still-astonishing, shivering 'I Believe In Father Christmas', a song you've heard so many times you've stopped really *hearing* it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfY4...
#DailyChristmasSong today is this GEM by Billy Childish. "We were playing punk in Hamburg, Bruce stayed out there with a German bird/I flew home on Christmas Eve/I was on punk leave". Incredible. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTjP...
#DailyChristmasSong My favourite genre of Christmas song is "Miserable Christmas", exemplified by this largely forgotten, rather offhandedly bleak 1973 entry from good ol' boy Merle Haggard www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9TB...
#DailyChristmasSong for a good few years the Killers did an annual Christmas son (they stopped once they'd filled an album). They're a mixed bag, but this one? This one is flipping wonderful. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uW8o...
#DailyChristmasSong. I am not a punk purest – No Doubt’s cover of ‘Oi The World’ is better than the original by miles. youtu.be/ZFLExwIQKto?...
Your Monday #DailyChristmasSong is Los Campesinos! brilliant 'A Doe to a Dear'. The whole EP is fantastic. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCp7...
Today's #DailyChristmasSong is this completely absurd shot-by-shot recreation of 'Peace On Earth/Little Drummer Boy' by Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly, which I can watch over and over again. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJBF...
Today’s #DailyChristmasSong is @emmaleemoss.bsky.social and Lightspeed Champion (aka Devonté Hynes aka Blood Orange) covering John Pine’s ‘Christmas In Prison’, which I genuinely prefer to the original. Probably because I heard it first. Anyway, it’s a lovely thing. youtu.be/6BZNit9Zn3A?...
Today's #DailyChristmasSong is sheer class. Brilliant writing, no-one else writes couplets like these. The whole album, Quality Street, is brilliant. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiSf...
Todays Christmas song is one I have grown up with, and its in norwegian:

Today's #DailyChristmasSong comes from Sufjan Stevens (one of A HUNDRED he's put out) and it is batshit mental. www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_cP...
#DailyChristmasSong There is never a bad time to listen to Self Esteem's UTTERLY DEVASTATING Christmas brush off from her days as the funny one in Slow Club. Honestly, it's a masterpiece. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ultq...
I don't think people appreciate how batshit it is that there's a song we listen to every year, as a classic, that includes the line "The stranger spoke/he said do not fear/I come from a planet a long way from here". Barmey. Brilliant. #DailyChristmasSong www.youtube.com/watch?v=KODs...
It's December, which means it's time for #DailyChristmasSong, until I forget to do one! Let's start with Elvis' 'Santa Claus Is Back In Town', very possibly the sexiest and cheekiest the king ever was on record. Ripping vocal too: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ae7C...
