A Carol For Christmas

The Pogues
Fairytlae of New York



Briefing Notes: The finest song ever written about Christmas. A tale of Irish immigrants, dreaming of happier times in holidays past whilst sleeping of their intoxication in a New York jail cell. The protagonists' hopes and dreams, once held in youth, have eroded and died. A different side to the usual Christmas sounds and imagery.

Further Information: The Pogues are playing at the O2 tonight!
