Fairytale of New York [12 Days of Covers]
The number one Christmas song of all time? White Christmas
of course! The number one Christmas song in the U.K.? Fairytale of New York, which I'm guessing you've never heard of. Maybe Americans' don't like the words "slut," "faggot," and "ass" in thier holiday songs.
Originally by Irish group the Pogues
and British singer Kirsty MacCol
l, the original sounds more irish drinking song than holiday cheer, and that pretty much fits the lyrics too.
Here's a free download of Third Eye Blind covering it.
