One of the best Christmas songs ever made... RIP you both, Kirsty and Shane... And thank you.
I have to disagree with you. Not one of the best , but THE best.
"ditto" i totally agree
We would have never had Christmas without them both it would have never happened others but not chirstmas
God bless them both ❤

Farewell to Shane MacGowan. He earned his unique place in the pantheon of great Irish writers.
So true. I hope many more people discover his poetry now.
Kent, London. But yes.
Yeah so many just roll off the tongue 😅

May God rest her soul
Kirsty MacColl 1959-2000 RIP
Shane MacGowan 1957-2023 RIP
Thank you for the music. This Christmas song is an absolute banger.
I hope they're holding hands and dancing in heaven right now
They’re dead…
@@Blaze23557..Poophead

bummer @@Blaze23557
@@Blaze23557do you know what Heaven even means?
Still the best Christmas song ever. Rest in piece lad
Don't forget about Madam Kirsty.
RIP Kirsty and Shane. You both made our lives prettier, one way or the other. I raise my Guinness pint to you.😢
I just turned 80. Not much interested in life. Just heard this song for the first time. When I hear it my throat chokes, heart swells along with the emotions. This song may be my only reason for living. 2022. Thanks Shane ... Kirsty - I hope one day to meet everybody's darling. Please RIP. (Australia)
Please stick around as long as you can. The world needs you!
Where you from mars or summit?????????????
Have a drink tone
Music saves lives ❤
❤
R.I.P. Shane MacGowan, you gave us the very best Christmas song EVER. I play this every Christmas, I love it, never ceases to make me cry., even more so now.
RIP Kirsty MacColl - Taken 21 Years Today - Forever Young.
RIP Kirsty MacColl.

In My Opinion This Is Truly The Best Christmas Song Of All Time. Still Sounds Brilliant In December 2021 & I Think It Will Still Be Brilliant Forever More.
Agreed.
Totally agree 👍👍
I'm torn between this and greg Lake but today the pogues are edging it 🥇💓🦊
Very true
It wasn’t wrote to be a Christmas song it’s the story of a drunk
Ich habe the Pongues live sehen zu dürfen in Germany
.sie haben schon uns mitgenommen. Toll. Spitze.libe sie immer noch.
Both reunited to sing in the heavens above ... The best Christmas song ever
I think the "you took my dreams from me.
I kept them with me babe and put them with my own"
Is one of the most beautiful lyrics I've ever heard.
"I could have been someone"..."well so could anyone"....one of the most poignant.
My life with my ex husband the bastard, exactly..... He took my dreams from me, and a curse on the scumbag!
@@bernadettemacdonald-wilson4306 some self reflection is good too, it can't always be someone else fault.
We kissed on the corner and danced the night away ❤️🙂
@@bernadettemacdonald-wilson4306 he put them with his own
This better make number 1 this year. It so deserves it. Should be number 1 every Christmas but this year especially. RIP Shane and Kirsty. Thank you for the best Christmas song ever ❤
Let's finally put this to it's rightful place as christmas number 1 for Shane. Let's get it done guys
It's the #1 song in Croatia at the moment. God bless all my Irish brothers and sisters!
i cant believe its never been no1
Not just the best Christmas themed song ever but one of the very best songs, period
I am thoroughly convinced that this may be one of the best christmas songs ever
Without a dout
absolutely with you there
100%
It is at least one of the most honest Christmas carols, not a cheap standard song (bells, snow and all that gossip that everyone loves everyone).
May????.
I never tire of hearing this song. The lyrics are brilliant and, in places, very touching. RIP Kirsty.
Me neither. I often come back to this video all times of the year.
Brilliant music 🎶
@Mark Kelly Shane never wrote the lyrics or the music, that credit goes to Jem Finer.
Made me realize getting called a slut could be endearing lol
HOW OLD IS OLD
Its not xmas without shane and kirsty. Rip you beautiful people, we will think of you and send you love every year
Damn. I remember this airing in 1987. Kirsty still alive, Shane, the legend, belting them out. Brilliant times. Times unfortunately we will never see again.
Not xmas until you listen to this. There’s something about it. That sings to the ❤️❤️
“I could’ve been someone, well so could anyone, you took my dreams from me, when I first found you. - I kept them with me babe.
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you”
Truly one of the best but if lyricism I’ve ever heard. Really gets you down deep. As a man, as a husband, this line is the most meaningful of all and has me in tears every time.
RIP Shane. You’re a legend forever my friend
Amen to that😢
Moves you to tears
Hope my boyfriend at the time 1979 sadly he passed in his 30,s can now get to meet him RIP Shane and kirsty ... love you to infinity Terry ❤ fran
That’s how real love is. I sometimes wonder how men communicate with women in the younger generation because my generation(Genx) the men did some wonderful true love songs. You don’t really see it so much in music now. I could be wrong but I think men were more romantic back in the day.
@@jujutrini8412they said the same things about your generation and I’m sure generations before that.
I think you’re right in the sense that the most popular music isn’t as romantic as it once was. There’s still great songs out there though and it doesn’t take much digging. It’s just not the stuff you hear all over the radio or TikTok I guess.
It's just such a beautiful song, I canr believe it's never made number 1. For me this is the best Christmas song, it brings people together. RIP Kirsty and Shane and thank you for the most beautiful song and the memories that it brings. X
May they both Rest in Eternal peace. We won't forget them both.
Keep watchin' I think this year maybe the year 🤞
Maybe this year?
It’s not just one of the best Christmas songs of all time, it’s one of the very best songs of all time.
Indeed
I totally agree and so sad.
not one of the best but it's the best christmas song
or one of the best songs ever.
Totally agree with you
Still the best Christmas song..Merry Christmas everyone
Thank you kirsty and shane for this masterpeice i hope your both singing along with us up there❤
There are beautiful Christmas songs. There are wonderful Christmas songs. There are iconic Christmas songs and there is Fairytale of New York. R.I.P. Kirsty and Shane
My tears declare you're absolutely right, Joe. No one ever struck heart, soul via song like the career Shane, with The Pogues, fashioned, a chemistry that will always stand aloft and alone in its depth and sheer nobility.
No more words
So true and there is - The fairy Tales of New York. My mother would drank whiskey on Christmas Eve and dance to this song all night. I still remember her moves ❤😢
Another Jewel...🔔😌
Is the best Christmas song ever.
forever
Tis. The first hearing of it, Christmas 2020 brought tears after footage Id seen of New York last year.. that song seemed especially poignant...
There is no doubt about that
Definitely
Yes....
Nothing will ever top this magical Christmas song. RIP Kirsty, taken far too soon. XXX
This is the one of the most beautiful Christmas Song ever. Rest in Peace Shane McGowan and Kristy MacColl 😑
RIP Shane MacGowan, I hope you and Kirsty and singing this up in heaven
Two Lovely people. How we miss them even more now. This particular song has so much meaning and will continue to do so forever. Bless them both and their loved ones. 🙏🙏💕💕
Love this...
Not Christmas til I've heard it!!
This song will last for eternity. God bless you both Kirst and Shane.
Simply the best Christmas song ever in my opinion. We all get stressed and shout but ultimately love each other and it's a riot. They deserve No.1 because it is an anthem for us all. Much love to their families and R.I.P.
Hope these two have met once again, RIP Shane and Kirsty!
What a masterpiece. The best Christmas song ever. Sung with emotion and realism x
there wasnt much emotion considering he didnt know where he was for half of it
It’s NOT a Xmas song, it just came out then,,
Sure the song is set on Christmas Eve
You taking the piss? The guy sounds drunk at the beginning
The miming is so so bad in this video. It’s literally the original played back and they are pretending to sing it. It’s awful.
I remember watching this performance on TOTP and it was as if it were just yesterday. Wonderful song. RIP to you both🙏🙏🙏
Ain’t no Christmas without this wonderful song …..
This is the G.O.A.T of Christmas songs
This song is played around 2000 times every year, from 1st December in the UK alone.
No wonder it's in the top 10, Christmas songs.
It's beautiful, R.I.P Kirsty x
It wouldn't be Christmas if we didn't play this beautiful song rip to you both thank you for giving us this brilliant song , Shirley h Darlington England 🌹✌️✋👌❤️💕⭐
this from 1987, and have just watched the version sung in Dublin Cathedral for Shane's funeral. Still a brilliant song from a brilliant mind.
One of THE best duets that will EVER be recorded. Sublime. The end.
With out a doubt
I’m sitting in Salford at work right now listening to this timeless song.
Christmas 2021 in a couple of weeks
Thank you Shane McGowan for a truly beautiful Christmas song! Feeling very nostalgic, was my late Dad's favourite Christmas song! ,from John and Sally McGowan ♥️ ❤️
R.I,P, Kirsty Maccoll and Shane Macgowen.
Hopefully number 1 for xmas this year. Rest in Peace Kirsty and Shane.
There have been a few covers of this but none of them beats the original. RIP Kirsty.
@Joshie Market Ed Sheeran tried 🤣
There’s a newer version that’s not as good as the original. Why do the Woke have to ruin everything? They’ll be wanting all white keys on pianos next. Or all black ones.
@@brummie9205and Ed's great and was also a flop 😂 this is a song u could never ever
I'm not always in the mood for this song. But this song always puts me in the mood for it. Every time.
Great message. I didn't realise that's how I feel until I read your message
🤗
A piece of Ireland's heart went with Shane MacGowan as he left. What an incredibly fitting salute in Nenagh yesterday to the person he was . He shone a light in the darkness back in my younger days may he R.I.P.
Is he buried in nenagh?
@@paulrussell6495 he was cremated, nothing known of what will be done with his ashes
@@leximojito1218 Thanks for the info
This ole Irish AMERICAN green beret is drinking Irish whiskey listening to one of the greatest songs ever writen!!! Merry Christmas to my Special Operations Brothers!!!!
Every mother thinks that they would put their own body in front of a speeding truck to save their child. But Kirsty actually did that. Love you girl. Bravest mother ever.
I read the wiki page after this comment, R.I.P Kirsty
It was a speeding boat actually. Driven by some rich idiot in a restricted speed area from the sound of it who paid someone to take the blame. Had to pay less than 100 to escape jail and less than 2k to her family to say sorry. No justice and such heartbreak for her family
Strong Mama.
A boat right?
Wait a truck? I thought it was a boat
best song out there no song will ever replace this is an absolute masterpiece
THE ALL TIME GREATEST CHRISTMAS SONG! & I DON'T SEE IT GETTING BETTERED..
absolutely love this song, Kirstie has the most amazing voice.
This will be Christmas no1 Mike finally ,for Shane and Kirsty RIP.❤❤
I love the look on Kirsty's face as she leans on the piano and looks at him. It looks for all the world like she could be his wife, sick to the back teeth of him yet still being there.
Absolute talent from Mr McGowan and Ms Kirsty. Best Christmas song ever R.I.P.. Kirsty
There is no Christmas Spirit until listening to this song!
Rest easy, Shane and thanks for your music. You're a fucking legend!!
The best Christmas song ever as far as im concerned its not Christmas until I hear this on the radio .... like if you agree
I remember when this first came out. The pub (The Salutation in Manchester ) was reasonably quiet. When this came on the whole pub started singing along. It lifted the atmosphere tremendously. From that moment on the place was jumping.
5-0. Shit pub.
@@willhickman2578 Couldn't agree more. The beer was cheap though
Drank there occasionally in the 80's, but not as much as "The Lass".
Best Christmas song ❤
...is last christmas
Together for Christmas again, reunited in the heavens. RIP you legends :(
Rise high Shane, may you and Kirsty both rest in peace. Thank you for the music, the poetry the talent you gave the world. You lived, you legend, and you were irrefutable a someone
This should be the Christmas No1 ever year...much better than a sausage roll
With out a doubt the best Christmas song. Not cheesy, not cringe worthy, just a truly magical timeless record
Only an American would say that
@@gazza1858 well I'm not American
I'm Scottish and agree the most beautiful song
How to Make Gravy by Paul Kelly is our Christmas song in Australia.
The lip syncing in this video is cringe tho. I agree it's a timeless Christmas song
This Song is very beautiful! If i hear this now i get tears in my eyes. I miss you Shane. I love you and thank you so much for your wonderful music..You are one of the greatest irish writers.You'll be forever in our Hearts.❤
Best Christmas song ever
You know, one of the best things about being in my 50's now is that I lived my teenage years in the 80's..........priceless and I wouldn't change them for the world
Simply 'THE' song, a tune that will live forever...as-will Kirsty in our hearts too. Thank-You to The Pogues and Kirsty...'for....Christmas Day' ! x
gran cancion...
Rest in peace Shane. And thank you for the best Carol of the history
Oh yeah that was the 1980's. Definitely the best decade of my life. What a fabulous time to be alive.
Got shivvers and tears watching this, R.I.P Kirsty
The best Christmas song ever without a doubt. It is a timeless classic that will outlive all of us
This year's Xmas no. 1 no doubt. RIP bud
The best Christmas song ever been written love it RIP
Kirsty Was a huge loss!!!!She was a unique talent &her tongue in cheek performance made this Massive Hit!!!!RIP Kirsty McCollxxxxx
Gives me chills. Incredible Spirit. RIP Kirsty MacColl.
Rip Shane and also rip to Kirsty McCall the fairytale of New York still gets me all the time the 2 of you were excellent singing the song rip Shane and Kirsty I hope that the fairytale of New York makes it to number 1 this year god bless you both xxx
I went to school with Kristy and I meet shane in the bar in new York and this is mine and my wife favourite Christmas song together
Absolutely brilliant. Best ever Christmas song
What a brutally beautiful song. Hits me like a f’ing Mac Truck every single time I hear it.
I could have been someone....
I could have been a contender
I like to imagine Shane MacGowan and Kirsty MacColl reunited now, somewhere, somehow, and having an absolute blast together...
Goodbye Shane! We will miss you! Sing many more songs with Kirsty up there❤😢
The best Christmas song, in the world, ever 🥰
just a great song at Christmas can not be beat in my mind
You will never be forgotten by my generation Shane and Kirsty on Christmas Day 25/12/23
This is one of the best songs ever. It encapsulates everything that is about being human.
It's one of those songs where if you're parking the car when it starts, you stay in the car.
Just did that! 😊
Whenever I think of Christmas I think of Fairytale of new york.
Me too. RIP Kirsty
Ja też...
Who doesn't...
That’s why I’m here now!
