Young Myra Amos's father was a Methodist minister so the Chrismas album was inevitable sometime, I s'pose. This is from the 'Midwinter Graces' album released last month, and it is absolutely gorgeous. Blinded by the reflection from ten million envelopes, I'm in a Christmas mellow mood and, partial as I am to a redhead, if Tori wants to pop round to Blagg Acres and spend a silent night with me then I'll happily keep her topped up with Snowballs and Mince Pies.
Born at an early age a mere defenders' spit from the Boleyn ground, Billy Blagg has seen every West Ham game from 1898 onwards. Blagg was mentioned by Kenneth Wolstenholme in 1966 as one of the people on the pitch during the famous Hammers win over West Germany that lifted the World Cup and he returned to the pitch again for the 1975 FA Cup Final but stayed on the terrace for 1980 FA Cup victory. Blagg, 26, now lives with his eighth wife and innumerable children in a small semi-detached with chintz curtains in Dagenham, Essex and still attends every Hammers match and training session.
