Christmas TV, Music and Film

For me...

Best Film: Scrooge (Alastair Sim version - top-notch)
Video clips here if interested, still here if not. Almost the entire film, really.

Best Song: Merry Christmas Everybody - Slade (it's Noddy, what more can I say?)
Video clip here for those of you who don't know it.
That would be for those of you who live outside the UK, or those who do live in the UK, but in some sort of cocoon.

Best Story: A Christmas Carol
Downloadable version here - public domain rocks!

i agree with you on all thouse, but my favoite film is home alone

I liked Home Alone - I love the scene where he's in the New York store (is it Macy's?) - I just think of how amazing it must be to be standing there on Christmas Eve. But then I guess that our view of an American Christmas Eve is as stereotyped as the British one. When was the last time you strolled down a snowy Dickensian street with carol singers on every corner and jovial town criers crying out compliments of the season?

Which carols did you / do you enjoy most?

A nice Christmas song is Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.

Oh Holy night
Carol of the bells
and
cant remember the name but it goes

It was on a stary night and the hills were bright
eath was sleeping, sleeping calm and still.

It's called 'It Was on A Starry Night' - I had to play it for the infant kids to sing to on Friday morning. Ahhh... cute. It's a to play, though, as it's in a very alien key for me (too many flats, in my opinion).

Slade - Merry Christmas Everybody

Greg Lake - I Believe in Father Christmas

Wizzard - I Wish it Could be Christmas Every Day

Band Aid - Do They Know it's Christmas?

Band Aid 2 - Do They Know it's Christmas?
(Underplayed Stock/Aitken/Waterman version - Bros + Cliff Richard? Weird!)
