One of my favourite Christmas songs but I could be a bit biased because I knew Ed the drummer well as he used to come into the mixer most nights & Dublin Castle in Camden plus he used to go out with a Swedish girl called Marie who was friends of my friends.
This song hits all the right notes for a perfect Christmas song, the lyrics, the music, the bells, the lead guitar, the voice, cheesy moments that make you smile and the children joining in on the chorus. Well done The Darkness. Merry Christmas.
Best thing about The Darkness is what an absolute ball they were clearly having, and this is a classic example of that. Best Christmas song of the past 40 years.
The guys who saved 'Christmas' (as opposed to certain people who worked f***in' hard at ruining it). Best Christmas song since the early-70's, when Christmas was 'fun' (remember that ?). + - Think about this - all them Christmas hymns were about 'rejoicing', not flagellating yerself about things that YOU (frankly) have got very little chance of changing. AND this song doesn't actually need the 'double entendres' to make it simultaneously fun but relevant - I read it straight : it still creases me up (even without the video) & I'm with it 100% ... . Thanks for posting.
I always considered this to be one of the last classic feeling Christmas songs to come out; one of the keepers that fits in a playlist with all the oldies that have been played year on year.
The Darkness really did it man, they gave us a Christmas song perfect in it's Darknessness. Fun video too. When Justin puts his arms up at the end and sings "bells end" it's one hell of a great moment.
Until this and Kelly Clarkson my dad and others didn't think it was possible to write a Xmas song that was a classic level material. Made him happy and gave him hope for a little while longer. Despite it's problems here and there, we loved the Darkness. They were so damn good.
@@portalboy3187 Yes. When I say "were" so damn good, I meant in their bigger days. Now days no one, including the members of my family that loved them then, listen to them except the fans that continue on with them after the high points.
Forget Slade wishing you all a Merry Christmas. Forget about Wizard wishing for Christmas every single day. Forget Elton Stepping into Christmas and Paul Macartney Simply Having a Wonderful Time. Forget Shakin Stevens wishing you a Merry Christmas sitting on top of a post box or The Pretenders 2000 Miles away somewhere...... And can someone answer me about Chris Rea Driving home for Christmas cause I think he took a wrong turn on the A303 or something. Stuff Wham and their Last Christmas tripe and Mariah singing about something she was wants on Christmas day..... This is a Christmas Tune, A tune to be played loud and proud.
One of the best Christmas Songs that i’m still growing up with at the age of 13.Thanks to my dad getting me into The Darkness.This is better than American Christmas songs
one of my all time and most cherished favorite Christmas songs qnd from one of the most musically talented bands out there I love the darkness always have
Def my fav Xmas tune. My 22 year old daughter had no choice but to like this. I had Slade as a kid and whilst it's a Xmas classic, I think my daughter got the better deal. Absolutely Xmas to us xx
This song should be on the 1# trending. Yes I know it’s not Christmas but I am tired and just worn out and I am sure others are as well! This song is good for the soul!
Not underated so much as not promoted. When this track came out it was on every radio station in the UK, untiI the idiots suddenIy cIicked to them pIaying ''BeIIs end'' 10 times an hour. You hardIy ever hear it now.
Hey guys... its 2023 and The Darkness are killing it. Got old Ed Shereen jamming with them, but just here to say this is still the best Christmas song! I hope you all agree
For me after Fairytale of New York this is my favourite Xmas track. They still made this in a modern era in the 00s. And it became an absolute classic.
This is the ONLY christmas song i HAVEN'T heard star radio cambridge 🇬🇧 play 😡🤬 ,they have been playing christmas songs since they started turn local towns and cities lights on so have been waiting to hear this, its 1 of my fav's
LYRICS: Feinging joy and surprise at the gifts we despise over mulled wine with you On the 25th day of the 12th month The sleigh bells are in time ringing true How we cling each Noel to that snowflake's hope in hell that it won’t end Don’t let the bells end Christmas time, just let them ring in peace. Well the weather is cruel, and the season of Yule warms the heart, but it still hurts. You’ve got your career, spent the best part of last year apart and it still hurts So that’s why I pray each and every Christmas day that it won’t end Don’t let the bells end Christmas time, just let them ring in peace. Christmas time, don’t let the bells end Christmas time, don’t let the bells end Dust underneath the mistletoe leaves when you’re not here, You went away upon boxing day, Now how the hell am I gonna make it into the New Year. Christmas time, don’t let the bells end Christmas time, don’t let the bells end Christmas time, don’t let the bells end Christmas time, just let them ring in peace. Christmas time, don’t let the bells end Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
I have the best memories of this song! My mum was obsessed with Justin and every time this song came on my dad would change the channel to wind my mum up! Good memories! Will always be a classic❤️
It’s more than a masterpiece what a song one day I’ll have my ex back and we’ll listen to this in a lovely log cabin in Switzerland on Christmas Day 🎉❤🎅🏼
Uploaded Dec 2020, so I'm guessing the rights changed hands at some point recently. Considering how popular the song is the original was probably in the hundreds of millions.
If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE Truth, the life and the only way to Heaven? Revelation 20:15 ''Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.'' Through Jesus Christ, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways, from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him. Biblical explanation of the Gospel: God doesn’t want anybody in hell, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23) The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Since we have all sinned, we all deserve hell. Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. Yes, even if you have lied once in your life, you are sentenced to hell - that's how high God's standards are of moral perfection because God is holy and righteous, there is not one sin in Him. For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ - for He lived a sinless life, died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day. None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it and we don't want to be damned. No good works will ever save you. You can't earn salvation by good works, because God will judge us for our sin. Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life and He died for our sins according to the Scriptures, He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16) We aren’t saved by our good works, but only by the grace of God through faith in Christ. ''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins (past, present, future) to be forgiven only IF we repent and trust in Him. This is how you can get saved from sin and hell - repent of your sins and trust in Jesus Christ. Get to know Him by reading God's Word. So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.” (Luke 11:13) ''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15) ''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19) Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8). Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin. While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10). Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6) (John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually. When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14) Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36) ''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7) If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes - to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God. You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son. ''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17) ''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10) You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ. As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so. In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.'' ''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19) ''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41) ''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body, but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21) ''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4) ''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12) Please get right with God and get to know Jesus Christ personally today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left! "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32) Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you! Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''
@@Kasino80 he's saying "Ring in Peace" but it comes out when he says it as "Ringpeice". Ring piece is british slang for your arse hole or asshole if you are not from there. Same with Bells end. That's contracted to "bellend" which is slang for the end of your dick.
Justin Hawkins is really proud of this song. There's more than a few sexual innuendos in it. It's become a Christmas staple and hardly anyone realizes what it says.

Amazing song totally agree, but underrated 😄
Kept from being the Christmas number 1 by a cover of a timeless dirge by a band that no one had heard of....
@@ianreed1528 tears for fears were a pretty big band
A real shame this didn't get the Xmas no 1 though, I hate the Gary Jules version of mad world
It's November 2023...still a banger.. one of the best Xmas song's ever
This ,Darlene love and a bottle of rum of rum everyday from now till new year.
Absolutely 🎄🎄🎄
Best Christmas song to date
Saw it live last night. Still excellent 👌
One of my favourite Christmas songs but I could be a bit biased because I knew Ed the drummer well as he used to come into the mixer most nights & Dublin Castle in Camden plus he used to go out with a Swedish girl called Marie who was friends of my friends.
Best Christmas song EVER. And it manages to cram “bell end” and “ring piece” into a Christmas song.
😂 Brilliant
Bell end and ring piece should not be crammed together, that's just science.
Yeah but that was always their intention, to take the proverbial piss!
@@TheVideoLounge 😆 thats funny
It’s actually bells* end and ring in* peace
Why does this song never get played on the radio. . It's the BEST!!!
Funniest and most rocking Christmas song of all time.
Timeless lads.
Mission accomplished.
What's good about it is that it says bellend
@@jeanmichellelaurent don't forget the ring piece
Man, If you knew finnish language, I would show u the most rocking christmas album yet.

Robbed of number 1 when it was released. Quality Christmas song 🎄🎄

The Darkness really did it man, they gave us a Christmas song perfect in it's Darknessness.
Fun video too. When Justin puts his arms up at the end and sings "bells end" it's one hell of a great moment.

One of the best Christmas Songs that i’m still growing up with at the age of 13.Thanks to my dad getting me into The Darkness.This is better than American Christmas songs

No christmas season without this song!

LYRICS:
Feinging joy and surprise at the gifts we despise over mulled wine with you
On the 25th day of the 12th month
The sleigh bells are in time ringing true
How we cling each Noel to that snowflake's hope in hell
that it won’t end
Don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, just let them ring in peace.
Well the weather is cruel,
and the season of Yule warms the heart, but it still hurts.
You’ve got your career, spent the best part of last year apart and it still hurts
So that’s why I pray each and every Christmas day that it won’t end
Don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, just let them ring in peace.
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Dust underneath the mistletoe leaves when you’re not here,
You went away upon boxing day,
Now how the hell am I gonna make it into the New Year.
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, just let them ring in peace.
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Best Christmas song PERIOD!!!🎁🎄🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Never hear this or Queen on the radio and it's a damn shame. Two of my faves.
What a concert back in the 2000s in Sheffield, in the Foundry I believe. Super show.
I have the best memories of this song! My mum was obsessed with Justin and every time this song came on my dad would change the channel to wind my mum up! Good memories! Will always be a classic❤️
Amazing band so talented and what a voice justin Hawkins has!

The best Christmas song since Slade Merry Christmas. In my opinion only.
Anyone who is here 2024 🎄
I'm here! 20th November, just watched this on a tv show( UK)
Yes. Me.
Me
Yessss
This is the best Christmas song because you won't hear it fifty times before the big day comes.
If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE Truth, the life and the only way to Heaven?
Revelation 20:15 ''Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.''
Through Jesus Christ, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways,
from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him.
Biblical explanation of the Gospel:
God doesn’t want anybody in hell, but you must understand why
we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go
there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but
rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam
sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23)
The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Since we have all sinned, we all deserve hell.
Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. Yes, even if you have lied once in your life, you are sentenced to hell - that's how
high God's standards are of moral perfection because God is holy and righteous, there is not one sin in Him.
For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ
- for He lived a sinless life, died on the cross and rose from the dead on the third day.
None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all
have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us
are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is
guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit
to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal
hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it and we don't want to be damned.
No good works will ever save you. You can't earn salvation by good works, because God will judge us for our sin.
Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life and He died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever
believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16)
We aren’t saved by our good works, but only by the grace of God through faith in Christ.
''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God -
not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins
(past, present, future) to be forgiven only IF we repent and trust in Him.
This is how you can get saved from sin and hell - repent of your sins and trust in Jesus Christ. Get to know Him
by reading God's Word.
So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.” (Luke 11:13)
''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15)
''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19)
Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8).
Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin.
While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10).
Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.
If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6)
(John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again."
If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually.
When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance
until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14)
Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36)
''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7)
If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes -
to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God.
You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace
revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son.
''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17)
''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10)
You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ.
As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so.
In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.''
''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19)
''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41)
''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body,
but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21)
''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that,
just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4)
''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God,
who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12)
Please get right with God and get to know Jesus Christ personally today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left!
"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32)
Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you!
Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''
Christmas eve 2023. Stull good!
Absolutely fantastic Christmas song and up there with the best
Along with Slade Christmas song and Roy Wood.
Justin Hawkins in this video is just amazing, I love watching this video. I especially love this bit 0:58 - 1:07 good to see that brotherly love
Loved this especially the "ringpeice" and "bells end" references. How it got through originally we'll never know?
I think he said ring in peace as fast as he did on purpose to make it sound like that...
Can someone explain that to me? I don't get it.
@@Kasino80 he's saying "Ring in Peace" but it comes out when he says it as "Ringpeice". Ring piece is british slang for your arse hole or asshole if you are not from there. Same with Bells end. That's contracted to "bellend" which is slang for the end of your dick.
It was done deliberately. In an interview, Justin chuckled that he wanted to write a song using bell end and ring piece.
'Come on kids'?
Just learnt this song for a covers band, we won't let the bells end!
It’s got all the vibes of slade, wizard, band aid etc. It’s a classic
And a healthy dose of Queen and Freddie
Great Christmas song from a great band. Permission to land played like a greatest hits!
One of my favorite Christmas songs ever.
I was today years old.
Thank you for this gem.
Best Xmas "innuendo" song ever. You're not telling me this is coincidental! Naughty but nice. lol
Bell End!!!
@@pedrogonzalesthespanishgyp7964 Ring Piece!
Justin Hawkins is really proud of this song. There's more than a few sexual innuendos in it. It's become a Christmas staple and hardly anyone realizes what it says.
