Every year it is again due to the Pogues, that the words "punk", "slut", "junk" and get "cheap lousy fagot" heard in the Besinnlichkeitstaumel. Daniel Koch about the evil of the Pogues Christmas classic.

Presumably, this song still pay the bills of Shane MacGowan Bars. It should be indulged him. "A Fairytale Of New York" is probably the only Christmas song that makes me excited every year when it plays in the format of radio. Not that you would hear this kind of radio at home, but at the mandatory parents visit over the holidays can NDR 2, FFN and radio antenna not escape times now. ! All the better, if then in the pseudo-solemn, stickiest, bombastic playlists, somewhere between boring can hear Bryan Adams with his "Christmas Time" and Wham's "Last Christmas," as Shane MacGowan and Kirsty MacColl angiften each other:

"You're a bum You're a punk
You're an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag you maggot
You cheap lousy fagot
Happy Christmas your ass I pray god it's our last. "

And on Christmas Day then I catch myself as I want just the parts of one's own relationship to the neck.

"Fairytale Of New York", released in 1987, is a five-star classic the first water. Starting with the orchestral intro, which cited Ennio Morricone's score for "Unce Upon A Time In America", the poetic text, which leads an alleged Christmas stories in the harsh reality of the duet of cute MacColl with the drunk-charistmatischen MacGowan, to the video clip in which Matt Dillon plays itself a secondary role - as a cop, MacGowan may throw in a cell. The recruitment took place, appropriately, to at the bar.

The amazing thing about "Fairytale Of New York" is just the fact that the song in spite of swearing and quickly dismantled to idyll Christmas today is a classic - the creeps even kept coming back to snoring nasal and Super Hits Radio. And now once again: "It was Christmas Eve, babe / In the drunk tank ..."

Once Upon a time in America is my most favourate film. I remember reading somewhere that this film had quite an impact on Shane and the band in general. Is this true and how much of an impact did the film have (if any as what I heard could have been rubbish)

I have no musical ability what so ever but when Fairytale of New York first came out I used to think of that film everytime I listened to it. I really never knew that. It makes it an even better movie now ha ha. Thanks Phil

# 19

John Cage made it as far as # 21, the X-Factor winner, whoever he is, is of course the Christmas week # 1. Weirdly, the Trashmen's "Surfing Bird" is at # 3. All the other records in the Top 40 are by someone called Rhianna.

'Surfing Bird' got to three on the back of a Facebook campaign to try to keep the X-Factor guff from top spot! It's also well known for being an integral part of a 'Family Guy' episope!
