Be sad to see greg go ...better than some songs that got through so far.

My parents favorite songs appear in this round. We lost one of them at this time of year as well as a grandparent on Christmass day. My thoughts with anyone who has loved and lost someone around this seasonal time or during the year gone by. x

the purple tin

Bing Crosby - White Christmas
Thurl Ravenscroft- You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch. I am taking a stand here people, no more non-xmas songs will be voted for by moi. So Buckley is out.
Greg lake - I Believe in Father Christmas
Bing Crosby and David Bowie - Peace on Earth

hey! that Coldplay song is actually a good Christmas one, its just that because people hate Coldplay that they aren't giving it a shot.

They're both pretty bad, but I'd take either over the two Chrises, Rea and De Burgh. The sooner they're gone the better.
