Merry Christmas Everyone #MusicMonday
By Jeannette | December 23, 2013
Today’s Music Monday is a festive favourite in our house. I wouldn’t want to listen to it in any month apart from
December, it is cheese with a capital “C”.
I was watching the Christmas TOTP2 last night and there were tweets flying around that Noddie Holder makes £800k every year from plays of the Christmas song he co-wrote with another member of Slade. £800k! A nice little pension fund that will carry on for a long time. It made me wonder if the Band Aid charity receive similar revenue, if so, that’s a nice legacy.
Anyway, why do we like the Shakin Stevens song in our house?
It’s mostly for the way the tempo changes approximately 1 1/2 minutes into the song. It goes from cute jingly-jangly to a kick-your-legs-around-like-you-need-a-wee. Something Hubbie does very well.
Hubbie is feeling a bit sad and deflated today and this should make him smile. You can watch the video here, hopefully wearing a festive jumper.
Merry Christmas!
