Freedom without Socialism is privilege and injustice.
Socialism without freedom is slavery and brutality. |

Hence, I'm fine with a little light nonsense from Slade, Wizzard or even Dean Martin ... but want to vomit when I hear Johnny Bleedin' Mathis wheedling out "When a child is born". It's even worse if you actually listen to the words.
Bowie and Crosby, please, no, take it away.
Poor old Bing, not knowing if he's on this earth or Fuller's, wondering who this plonker is that's singing with him.
"Fairytale of New York" ... well, I could never understand how a decent singer like Kirsty McColl could tie up with such a bunch of talentless deadbeats as The Pogues. (From which you'll gather that I don't like that one either).
Cliff Richard should put his mistletoe and wine in a blender and pipe the result up his septuagenarian @rse.
Miserable old git? Yes, now feck off my doorstep. You have now lost all credibility when it comes to music matters. You may not like them but to call them talentless  OK, I admit that "talentless deadbeats" was a bit strong. Let's go with "of disappointingly low apparent talent despite input from respected artists who did well away from The Pogues".

Apart from that amazing, unique voice, Shane McGowan has written songs like Fairytale of New York, Sally Maclennane, If I Should Fall From Grace With God, and Dirty Old Town. To me this makes him an outstanding musical talent.

And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain.... |

hopps wrote: As well as slade, wizard etc I like pipes of peace and 2000 miles Good call, that. It's an odd one though as although it's Christmas related it only sneaked into the chart just before Christmas in 1983 and went on to reach number one in January 1984.
