A few days late but here's this years re-write of last year's mock up. Happy New Year to all! Sandy. Lyrics: ![[image]](http://cn1.kaboodle.com/hi/img/b/0/0/10c/b/AAAAC3HijqwAAAAAAQy15w.jpg?v=1290882222000) It's Christmas Timeby Sandy GrittIt's Christmas time
It's Christmas time
It's Christmas time oh yea.
It's Christmas time in the city
It's Christmas time on the scene
Those coloured lights they're looking pretty
Hanging up since Halloween
It's children's favourite time of year
Gonna get a dose of Christmas cheer
All the season's joy seen through their eyes
Wishing for a sweater in my size
'Cause it's Christmas time
Christmas time
It's Christmas time
It's Christmas time
People from all around
Are heading homeward bound
Good friends drop by, we're getting high
The feeling's so profound
And another year has passed us by
Let's have a round of Auld Lang Syne
The new year brings a brand new start
Love and hope to spare so fill your heart
Winter is cold so bundle up
Pour a little Baileys in my cup
Some wind and rain or snow and sleet
My weight in chocolate I'm gonna eat
'Cause it's Christmas time, etc... |

Same as it ever was...yeah baby. Thats a crisp guitar line, there is a sweet underbelly to this one, it makes me want to get all loopy. |

Love it Sandy, that bass and guitar melody line is soooo infectious, and I love the fretless-ish sound on the chorus . Great funky guitar and vocals just dripping with cool - great sound. Very nice production as well and a superb drum track. Huge fun and I'm really glad you updated this.
My alternative Xmas number one!!!!
Cheers,
Nigel |

Already a great song, and you have added some fantastic new parts.
Still love that bass line.

What a great new Christmas tune! It almost sounds like it could have been a lost track from 'Sandinista!' or 'Combat Rock', but it's funkier and with your signature style. You definitely got the funk, brother.  |

Well I had Mick Jagger in my head while singing the first verse.  |

That insistent snare just drives this along, demanding that I dance like a chicken ...
Not just a Christmas song - a New Year's song, too. Love the "Bailey's in a cup" line. This is the time of year to spike just about any non-alcoholic beverage.
Those slashes of guitar are wicked, definitely remind me of the Clash. This one just gave me a much-needed mid-afternoon kick in the pants. |
