New this month and a bit of a cracker comes this from Singer / Songwriter Gilmore from her 'Strange Communion' album. Excellent lyrics with the right balance of longing and cynicism and a driving tune guaranteed NOT to annoy you by Christmas Eve. Plus it seems you get a listenable version of Yoko Ono's 'Listen, the snow is falling' too. Make it Number One now!
"Hot Wine and a Christmas Tree / The Sound of Music and the family / Faith, Hope and Gluttony / That'll be Christmas / Join the others in the bar by ten / Peace and Goodwill to Men / Me missing you again / That'll be Christmas"
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.
