Xmas music

[Richard]

Another favourite.

[Jamiewednesday]

Kinda rely on the radio for most of it but then a playlist made on Tidal/Qobuz on Christmas Day.

This always gets a run out though.

Howard Goodall, The Truth about Christmas Carols, BBC iPlayer. 59 mins. Interesting account and a wide variety of carols.

[Collywobbles]

It really is not. Seriously irritating. Lol.

[bruss]

Just giving this a listen, thanks

[Richard]

She’s a classy singer.

[Ebor]

Seems pleasant enough, but I’m struggling to regard anything 19 minutes (7 songs) long as an Album. Maybe a sign of the times.

And coming in a close second to Shane McGowan’s masterpiece, Eric Idle.

Can’t post a vid of course.

Can’t really repeat the title, either.

It’s the word “Christmas” preceded by a popular Anglo-Saxon rudery.

Many thanks for posting. Lost track of Cerys after Catatonia to some extent.

A great rendition.

[Martinzero]

Really? Talentless rubbish IMO

[Ebor]

Now now, chaps. Christmas spirit and all that. Let’s save the car park scrapping until chucking out time, shall we?

[Maury_Finkle]

talent notwithstanding, not appropriate for families and young children. we don’t play it in our house, but I’m ok for those that like it. its become a classic in its own right

The Lower Lights - Come Let Us Adore Him

[PeakMan]

Currently listening to this:

There is something special about Christmas music sung by a really good choir and The Sixteen is a really good choir. The second piece: Lo, How a Rose e’er Blooming is sung very slowly and very quietly. It takes expert singers to bring this off but the result is magical.
