Since it is the 1st of December, that means another 24 days to Christmas, why not countdown to Christmas with my favourite Christmas songs. One a day, let's see how far I can go with this.

Let's kick it off with Fairytale of New York by The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl is one of my all time favourite Christmas song since I first heard it in 2001. I like how clever this song was written, the differnt tempo and style. The crudeness of it, yet, there is something about this song in the beautiful city of New York.

Bittersweetness they say...

It is different no doubt.
