Yes, I know that people will say that it's far too early to even be thinking about Christmas, but frankly you're wrong. Though I'm not acually thinking about Christmas per-say, but more about 'The Pogues who are the singers (along with Kirsty MacColl) who bring us this Fairytale Of New York.

You see, I've borrowed 'The Ultimate Collection' of The Pogues from the library and it's brilliant. For the first time I actually know what the words to Fairytale are, due t the fact that they've got them written in the leaflet.

The second CD is The Pogues, live at The Brixton Academy and it's amazing. You have no idea what on earth is being sung at any time. The tune gives the song away, but the words could be anything.

The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas Day
