Do you like Fairytale of New York?
 

Often cited as the best Christmas song of all time, do you actually like the song?

I see that it can be very divisive. Let's see what the TiBB consensus is.

yeah I love it

No because the first bit makes me feel depressed

i like it but it’s depressing

Not the best Christmas song but it's still great

One of the best christmas songs

Yes I love everything about it, especially those opening lines by Shane

Boring, depressing, one hit wonders :sleep:

The Pogues had 5 top 40 hits and about another 15 top 100 hits

Yes the Pogues are real one hit wonders with those numerous albums and decades of success :think:

Christmas should be a happy time but this song ruins the mood imo

Not the best ever imo but yeah I love it. A lot of nostalgia of past Christmases attached to it since it's one of those classics played every year.

Dull and depressing

So they’ve had about as much success as Stooshe then

I find it a little moody. Gimme Mariah any day

Love it, my favourite Christmas song :love:

You like Tubthumping as well right? :suspect:

I used to like the excuse to use the words "slut", "bum", "faggot", and "ringing" without getting told off.

A classic, except for yesterday when I heard it play on the same radio station three times in the one day :skull:

My anthem

Yes, it's okay.
More true to life than most.

I do love it actually, although it's not my favourite.

However, I do find it uncomfortable when straight people scream "YOU CHEAP, LOUSY F*GGOT" at a Christmas do.

I much prefer replacing the f-word with "carrot".

It's just a word, who cares.

Idk me who's been called it since I was little

:unsure:
