Well folks, Christmas is just around the corner once again - so to put you in the mood to post your festive performances I have posted a stunning performance of the Fairytale Of New York by Norway's Katzenjammer (the best girl band on the planet), Ben Caplan (the singing beard), and, also from Norway, The Trondheim Soloists (one of the coolest 'ensembles' of string players performing on the international stage today)

If this doesn't make the hairs on your neck stand-up then nothing will

Enjoy .....

Hi there Mike,
That was a wonderful performance great singing and those strings out of this world a nice post thank you cheers pal.

Thanks for the video Mike. One of my favourite Christmas songs and they do a decent version of it. Still prefer the original Pogues with Kirsty MacColl It's great to get your head around too, with 5 different time signatures in the song.

HI

i heard this for the first time about 18 months ago
i had never heard of the the pogues and kirsty maccoll until then

last year Craig played a version of this and it is great

perhaps he will post it on the forum
