    No sleigh bells. No kids choir Down to earth lyrics about real people Not an ounce of sentimentality about it, just a celebration of the parts that make up Christmas that everyone recognises. , indeed, the best Christmas song ever. ITS CHRISSSSMAAASSSSSSS!

    Really great to hear Jim break down how he wrote it as a Dylan-style song, then later combined it with Nod's Rocking Chair song. Read about it before, but, was great to see him break it down...

    He says at the end ". . and no writing credit" but he DOES get a writing credit? it can clearly be seen on the single itself. Holder - Lea.

    Great talent - brilliant writer of great pop songs. Too bad that cosmetic surgery has him now looking like the Child Catcher from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang...
