Christmas Time is coming closer...what is your
opinion about Queens only Christmas Single?
King Freddie still rules
Poor.
"A Winter's Tale" is so much better!
Bad song :-/
Winters'tale is much much better...

EDIT : I was not the fastest ;-)
Hey Freddie May, you've copied my post!
No I hadn't seen your post but I agree with you, that's all :-)
I know, I know... I was just kidding!
I love that single..it's one of my favourit christmas single ever! But one of the reason for that was the beautiful voice of Freddie Mercury ofcours...
Freddie Mercury; "Reach for the Top, and hope for the Best" "Find them, Fuck them, Forget them!"
I like it. Really Christmasy.

'Thank God It's Christmas' is too bland, though it does have some nice guitar at the end. The band would have been better off issuing 'I Dream Of Christmas', which they apparently recorded.

'A Winter's Tale' is absolutely gorgeous, but not really something to listen to unless it's snowing outside (at least, that's what I think).

Does anyone know when 'Thank God It's Christmas' was recorded? I've heard July 1984.
pure shit

I really dislike Thank God it's Christmas. It sounds like a cheap pop song, freddie's voice isn't good either in it.
This song is so un-queen.
I don't like it at all.

I don't know...I've only listened to it a few times. It isn't my idea of a very Christmas-y song, and I tend to only like Christmas hymns anyways, so even that isn't really saying much. I don't find it marvelous, but then, it certainly doesn't irritate me the way several other songs do. I do, however, absolutely adore A Winter's Tale. Beautiful is a severe understatement, I think.

Ja ne.

Funny. I've always thought that this is a very typical "normal" (= not BoRhap or TSMGO) Queen song.

I like it very much. It works perfectly for one moth a year.
Not those are losers who fall, but those who don't stand up.
Yeah, I like the song at this time of year, it fits in well with all those Cliff records but I dont think its a popular Christmas record with people in general.

Would have been great if they'd released a video to go with it, all the band cavorting around in the snow. Then roasting the chestnuts on an open log fire.
