we were stunned that they were playing it in on a summer morning at Leeds!


Thats what I love about the song it doesn't have to be played on the xmas day in New York to enjoy it, it can be play anywhere in the world at any time of the year, and its still the best song ever written.

As well as I can remember it was faster than the original. I dont remember it that well, we were stunned that they were playing it in on a summer morning at Leeds!

In fact there are a few blank spaces in memory from that weekend.

im with johnty here.....covers should be different in my opinion so stand up and be counted whoever it was who done it!! (the acoustic one with the mouth organ ) .We are not worthy! :D

I like The Christy Moore version of Fairy tale .Well to be honest i like the intro about getting lost in a mushroom field the best.Brings back memories y know. :lol:

I like the German? vbersion of Rainy night in sho that is linked on this site also but thats cos its my favourite song anyway

the pietasters do a pretty good "fiesta" a few words are messed up. of course. but... they get the original idea and energy.

Christy Moore's version of Fairytale Of NY is brilliant.

Best use for it, no doubt. But... your cat can handle a frisbee? Now that's impressive. Must try and teach mine. :lol:

I just listened back to a version of IISFFGWG by Steve Earle and it is so different from the original that I like it.
