Ideally I'd just nominate this album but one track will have to do. Vocal by Doro Pesch

This was used in an M&S Christmas campaign a few years ago and has remained a favourite of mine ever since.

Hi Loughc,

Thanks so much for taking the lead and tallying up the votes as they come in. Loving some of the selections, Elio Pace & Funzo some of my personal favourites so I'll be dancing around the Studio playing these. Gonna run this top 10 on my first show, probably the first Friday evening.

Also we're doing up the music library at the moment so the new tunes mentioned above will be included for consideration. Keep the new songs coming in as it'll be great to have some new tracks to include.

Christmas FM.

From Judas Priest front man Rob Halford's 2009 Christmas album. Don't just write it off as another heavy metal song, give it a listen.
