I saw it on the news shame he passed away

@Dashie41 YT
The man had many drug and alchol-related demons through most of his life. I’m glad he found a good degree of sobriety toward the end though, in spite of it all

@Mr.Myoozik
I got a message from Aqua

I know, Fairytale Of New York is one of my favorite Christmas songs

@Background Pony #BF00
Thanks for the suggestions! Will check these out

@Mr.Myoozik
Likewise

Though I wonder how the song comes across nowadays seeng that it uses the F slur

@Mr.Myoozik
Yeah, I’m not sure

Ringo Starr’s I Wanna Be Santa Claus is pretty underrated, but it’s one of my favorite Christmas songs. Speaking of Christmas, my most fav Christmas song of them all, and one of my fav songs in general, is Happy Xmas (War Is Over). John’s voice is absolutely flawless there imo

But if we’re talking about British Christmas songs that deserves to be more recognized across the pond, I want to bring up “Driving Home For Christmas” by Chris Rea, that one is a really great and relaxing tune.

I am a gigachad. 💪

@Mr.Myoozik
Ah yes, that one’s great!
Two other British Christmas classics I always turn to ’round this time of year is “Father Christmas” by The Kinks and “Merry Xmas Everybody” by Slade

@Count Oxymagomedov Sear
LOL
I guess I’m just the regular Chad in this case; I don’t quite trust FLAC

@𝕸𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖔𝖜 𝕽𝖍𝖞𝖙𝖍𝖒♪
Merry Christmas Everybody is another great one. Also, I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday by Wizzard, can’t beat that one either.

@Mr.Myoozik
Indubitably!

Scape Santa from Runescape is unironically my favorite Christmas song.

I hope there is alot of metal music, specially death in GTA VI since it will be set in Vice City and VC is based on Florida and Florida had shitload of OG death metal bands out there.

If I picked my underrated Christmas song gotta be Savatage Christmas Eve Sarajevo 12/24)

I agree

@𝕸𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖔𝖜 𝕽𝖍𝖞𝖙𝖍𝖒♪
Awwww, damn…

@Mr.Myoozik
Yeah, it sucks… He really did add fuel to the Rock fire, and was/always will be a big voice on Canadian Classic Rock radio.

When will the Grim Reaper take five and just leave musicians alone?
