One of my all time faves...
Bing Crosby & David Bowie - Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy

I wonder what Bowie thought of this...

The first one...I thought it was going to be one of those superimposed things with someone who is alive and some one who has passed away...I had no idea.

It was a strange duet at the time.

Great band 🎸👍

Not a cheery song, I realize. I hope there is a place for this sort of thing once in a while. I think Ian meant well when he penned this, at it is a lovely arrangement.

Unfortunately, The Housemartins are one of the few bands I don’t like (although I didn’t mind The Beautiful South).

I'm shocked! (I say, but I may have posted this years previously with the same reply and answer.)

Trevor Horn produced epic. FGTH were immense!

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 3 years ago

1984 belongs to FGTH!

I have their albums and they’re great!

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 3 years ago

They released far too many Greatest hits over the years but I did buy some 12 inch MP3's from Amazon recently. I love their remixes of their biggest hits.

Love this.

Second posting for this one; a favourite of mine.

[–] ColumboKate (5787) 3 years ago

I've only heard it recently as it's on our Christmas list at work. I don't recall hearing before a couple of weeks ago.

It really is a fantastic song.

reply

[–] AndyKing1967 (39847) 3 years ago

It got to No.2 on the UK chart in 1975 (Chartastic Andy).

Operatic!

She has a Christmas LP, I could have posted any song from it. 😊

Taylor Swift - Silent Night

I actually don’t mind Taylor Swift, but she’s probably just hovering outside my Too 500 artists - I may have to review this.

She has a Christmas EP, I could have posted any song from it. 😄
