Some more Christmas tunes for you

wounded-knee

Is Christmas starting to get you down?! After a fairly difficult year which I have only alluded to in passing on the blog, I’ve felt surprisingly festive here. Mind you, the last time I looked at facebook, one friend had written ‘All this fuss for just one day?!’ and I guess I can see why some folks are getting more than a little stressed.

It’s actually been snowing in Edinburgh -which looks pretty -until it starts melting, then freezes again…but look at it this way, there’s only five days to go.

Half Man Half Biscuit -‘It’s Cliched To Be Cynical At Christmas.’ mp3

Housewives On Prozac -‘I Broke My Arm Christmas Shopping At The Mall.’ mp3

Ron Sexsmith -‘Something To Hold On To (At Christmas).’ mp3

Wounded Knee -‘Cold Enough for Snow.’ mp3* (see top)

65 Days Of Static -‘I’m Dreaming Of A White Noise Christmas.’ mp3

In a few hours we will know who has been successful in the battle for the Christmas no.1…

Countdown to Christmas Post #5

[The end of term cannot come fast enough…I love teaching but whoever came up with the idea of marking St. Andrew’s Day by getting the kids to wear football strips needs dealing with. Hyper all bloody day.]

…Sorry, just one of my occasional moans about teaching.

Anyway, you’re here for music not my insights into the state of education, really, aren’t you?
