    What an absolute gem. RUclips has introduced me to so many great artists that, unfortunately, don't get play by the corporate plastic, formula music machine. This music, as they say, has legs.

    Merry F'n Christmas is beautiful, for Christmas has many emotions attached to it good and bad.
    Many people have been burned by Christmas and have experienced bad times. And it is not really a good time for them with every retail store is playing songs telling them to be happy, but they are carrying their sorrow and painful memories. It is a double edged sword for some of us.But I do believe in Tiny Tim, God bless us every one.

One christmas I was given a printed Xmas card that said exactly that. ''Merry F*$%n Christmas'. Boy did I get attitude for that one. o x o. Love all the songs. They have the rhythm of life running through them. Alie.

BUT AGAINST ALL ODDS THIS GUY GETS BETTER BY THE DAY. WHICH IS REALLY SAYING SOMETHING HE WROTE WILD THING FOR THE TROGGS IN 1965 THAT WAS 55 YEARS AGO. HE HAS PEOPLE LISTENING TO HIM TODAY WHO'S PARENTS HAD NOT BEEN BORN YET BACK THEN.

    Got no money - got no job - i got mouths to feed
    Merry f'n Christmas
    people so much in a hurry - they do not even stop to look at me
    Merry Eff'n Christmas
    we've been too long in the yours & mine
    just not enough kindness on the borderline
    Do unto others - as you would have them do unto you
