I Turned My Face Away And Dreamed About You

Kirsty MacColl died eight years ago this week. I keep thinking about Christmas songs that don't make me want to go on a killing spree and I figured if you're going to do something as bloggy as a list of Christmas songs, why not start with the best?

A song concerning booze, hate, loss and love that triumphs and transcends death. Ms. MacColl's voice is the song's beating heart. The greatest Christmas song ever written, The Pogues "A Fairytale of New York".
