Christmas Time
I was well shocked this morning when I realised that it is only 25 days until Christmas! I can’t believe it! It seems like only yesterday that everyone left for uni or London, I can’t believe how quickly it has come!
But now I am in trouble, I only have a short amount of time to get Christmas presents! Ahh! I feel really bad too as this is the first year in ages that I haven’t had a highly paid job and so people’s presents may well suck!
As we talk about Christmas, I thought it was time, in classic Hayley vs. Gareth style, to have a top five Christmas songs…
Mine are, in no particular order (they may be revised)…
1. Band Aid 20 - Do They Know It’s Christmas (I’m sorry but I think it is better than the original, and not just for the Dizzee Rascal bit!)
2. Coldplay - 2000 Miles (This is a cover of The Pretenders song and it is brilliant!)
3. Elton John - Step Into Christmas (What a tune!)
4. Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas is you (I know it’s easily mocked but it’s a fun song!)
5. Chuck Berry - Run Rudolph Run (If not only for its bit in Home Alone!)
I’m sure loads of you will disagree (you should, I’ve left out Cliff!) and so please use the wonderful comments thingy to add your own top fives
