So Debbie has challenged me to choose five Christmas linked songs - TopicsExpress



          

So Debbie has challenged me to choose five Christmas linked songs across five days, and like a musical chain letter, nominate a new person each day... ----------- Day FOUR: 2001, Janet Jackson featuring Carly Simon, Missy Elliot & P Diddy, Son Of A Gun (Betcha Think This Song Is About You) In 2001 Gareth and myself were broke so Christmas was an under a £10 affair: this single was what I chose for my present. Nomination THREE: Cheryl Tinholt because I want this to be an international affair! ----------- Day THREE: 1944, Judy Garland, Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas The first version of this song I became familiar with was by Chrissie Hynde; it was marvellous but I dont think the clarity and pure truthful emotion of Judy cannot be beat. This is possibly my all time favourite Christmas song made more poignant as this year, during extended absence from work due to ill health, I shared this video with my colleagues generating a few teary eyes. Nomination THREE: Hilde Marstrander as December is your month and you have some wicked style! ----------- Day TWO: 1979, Prince, I Wanna Be Your Lover Isnt playing a Prince album just like receiving a Christmas present? Well thats the Christmas link youre getting, so suck it up. The lead single of his second and self-titled LP, this record just makes me want to strut my funky stuff: it is so damn funky I should play this every day! Nomination TWO: Anton Loxha just because I want to hear your sweet music! ---------- Day ONE: 1987, Run DMC, Christmas in Hollis Ever since buying my first record in 1984 Ive been an almost gluttonous purchaser of music and with little familial guidance other than my mothers 1960s obsession with the Supremes, Roy Orbison and Elvis Presley. A Very Special Christmas was the first of two Christmas-themed compilation albums produced to benefit the Paralympics - then called the Special Olympics. This track was one of only three original compositions, and heavily samples Clarence Carters funky 1968, Back Door Santa... Enjoy! Nomination ONE: Jeremy Lloyd Thomas as he hates music or what he likes to call, row...
