Tears for Fears need a fuckin amnesty thread.

Actually the Tears for Fears thread is a cry for help.

Hahahaha fuck off. 
 

 

To be honest the only real Christmas song that is complete ear aids is the Mariah. Carey one. Howies favourite.

Changed the lyrics too (which I noticed they have also done to the Pogues/Kirsty McColl version).

"They" being The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl, who released the radio edit decades ago.

Another one that ticks loads of boxes marked Things I don't like and yet...

Fair enough.  Just never heard the alternative lyric version until yesterday.

Radio 1’s edited version will feature the line “you’re cheap and you’re haggard”, with the word “slut” silenced at an earlier point in the verse.

It's the version that the Waitrose Tommy Robinson was last year trying to claim was the lefty BBC Wokerati stifling the Pogues' freedom of speech, only to have the Pogues tell him to fuck off.

Any new ones worth listening to this year?

From a couple of years ago, but a future classic I reckon:

I fucking love Wham's Last Christmas but this is George Michael's best Christmas song.  Should be considered with the Christmas songs that are just objectively great songs, but I don't think it ever really took off and I'm guessing because it's sad.  But it's brilliant, so I'm putting it here then going back to a happier one:

All Christmas songs are shite with three exceptions.

1) 2000 Miles

2) I Believe In Father Christmas

3) Fairytale Of New York.

 

In fact Christmas is shite full stop.

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Feliz Navi-NEGGED!

 

Christmas is great.

And bollocks to you. Christmas needs to get in the fucking sea.

I think Oscar Wilde put it better than I ever could:

 

"Any man who is tired of Christmas is a miserable cunt".

[bossy]

I’ve written a Christmas song for our bookshop and we recorded it with the town’s other bookshop and made a video. I wear my LFC Christmas jumper so go easy.

I agree, though that LadBaby and his songs had me wavering.
