Great selection Ruth! I have a fondness for Jona Lewie's Stop the Cavalry and also Paul McCartney's Pipes of Peace. Strange to think that All I want for Christmas wasn't much of a hit at the time!

Listening to my Nat King Cole Christmas album whilst wrapping presents, accompanied by a Baileys and a mince pie is a festive highlight for me.

Last Christmas by Wham was sooo cool at the time. Love the fact that they were actually getting drunk making the video!!

Have a fabulous christmas Ruth. xx

Oh i can so picture your Christmas Wrapping scene Amanda, perfect!

It is such a fun video - fascinating to hear about the making of it in the documentary and that Andrew was so legless! I think George Michael was such a genius,,,I had the good fortune to see him in concert, a very sexy man.

You have a fabulous Christmas too Amanda, and here’s to ‘25 :-) x

David Bowie and Bing Crosbie, peace on earth/little drummer, love that Xmas song. Can't beat a bit of Bing at Xmas.

Merry Xmas Ruth and a Happy 2025 !
