So I'm sitting here on Christmas Eve and I miss them all. What a stupid feeling: nostalgia. Obviously I'm not the only one in the world who still feels this way. Tell me I'm right.

Christmas number 1 God Rest His Soul - the ugliest man to look at, in the world RIP Shane 🙏 🥰😍 Born Christmas Day, died St Andrew's Day. 🏴 I'm grateful to have heard you, in my life 😍
My daughter was born on December 25 in Spain, the same day as Shaun. This song shows that music is a universal language. When I listen to it I feel completely happy. May God keep Shane for many years and take care of Kirsty like an angel.
Seeing Kirsty's smile at the three minute mark and then the crowd singing along with her will always bring a tear to my eye. Such a beautiful moment. RIP Kirsty and Shane.
Wouldnt it be an absolutely fitting tribute to Shane & Kirsty if they re issued this song for Christmas this year? A sure number ONE hit! The profits to go to a homeless charity or under privileged kids A TRUE CLASSIC PEACE & GOODWILL TO EVERYONE LOVE 🇬🇧👧
This song gives me goosebumps...the earthly quality and downright soul of it touches parts unreached by a lot of music, especially these days. Incredible performance. Peace and love ❤
@@eoinreilly3925 ..and another billionaire got away with murder! Mexican justice, rarely resembles actual justice, especially when the owner of one of the country's supermarket chains is involved.
@@eoinreilly3925 I did not know about this, you gave me one more bad news of this scumbaggy 2020, I attach it to 2020, because I did not know and because it doe not make 2020 any worse, it cannot be.
Just as a sad aside but one that many people should be aware of: The wonderful Kirsty MacColl must certainly today be an Angel for what she did in December 2000: While vacationing in Mexico & diving/swimming in a restricted area (for boats) MacColl saw a speeding boat come towards her sons before her sons did; while 13-year old Louis was not in the boat's path Kirsty saw that her 15-year old Jamie was in its path. Kirsty's quick thinking & instincts resulted in her successfully pushing Jamie out of the way of the speeding boat -- but, Kirsty was struck and killed. She saved her son's life. It's what a mother does. I always admired Kirsty for that tragic bravery...I know I won't forget her.
I knew Kristy had passed, but I wasn't aware that it was in so tragic a manner. I will always love her "He's On The Beach". I joined the Navy in '79 for the explicit purpose of seeing Australia. The Navy, however, had different plans. Consequently, I didn't get there until 2005!!! But when I did get there, as I headed from the airport in Brisbane to the place where I was staying, I was blasting "He's On The Beach" on my mp3. Thanks Kristy, you're the best!
listening to this today ... I can feel a lump in my throat ..i feel the sorrow of loosing this artist.. RIP Shane .. you gifted us this absolute beauty .
I remember hearing this beautiful song the first time many years ago at the old Harp and Shamrock in Chicago.. It was a winter night and it was snowing at the time and I was downing several Guinness just looking out the bar window and thinking how perfect that moment was..RIP. Shane and Kirsty..thanks for the memories
His face @2:48 Kirsty had bad stage fright throughout her career and Shane asking mid-way through the song "Not going too bad huh"? It's a lovely little moment.
There are not many songs where every time you listen to it, it feels like the first time. This and 'Whole of the Moon' are two that I can listen to over and over again without ever being bored.
Debbie. Always Love Kirsty an Shane and best xmas song- Been playing It for weeks Now! 1.46 Still not Asleep. Rest in peace Shane😢.Sadly missed.Love to your Wife❤
Even though the sadness of losing Shane and Kirsty am in total gratitude that I was on this planet the in the same lifetime as them ...R.I.P. you beautiful souls your always in our hearts and memories 😢
Kirsty McCall was so special and hugely underrated imo.. I miss her. May both RIP and carry on creating and performing in some parallel universe. Loved the both
Your talent outlives you and so special to hear your wonderful music. R.I.P. Shane MacGowan and will always continue to play Fairytale of New York every Christmas
This song is one of the great unknowns of popular music It has spent more time in the British music charts than any other song. Voted this year...the most popular Cristmas song of all time. God bless.... thank you Kirsty RIP.
Heard it on the radio the other day while polishing concrete floors. On Swedish radio mind you. But I fell directly for it and added it to my Christmas list. Pce from Sweden
I just love this performance - it brought back so many happy memories - remembering those great nights out - the Town & Country venue in Kentish Town - those insane nights in Brixton Academy - now the tears are rolling down my face for I was truly blessed to have experienced those wonderful moments.
Doesn't matter that it's in the middle of the summer. I can still watch this. And I get goose bumps ALL OVER, and they don't go away for the whole song. That's what this does to me. Amazing performance and the best xmas song of all time.
Hello Linnea I hope my comment didn't sound as a form of privacy invasion your comment tells of a wonderful woman with a beautiful heart which led me to comment I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserve this complement. If you don’t mind can we be friends? Thanks God bless you…. Happy New year 🌹🌹

This song will hit very differently this Christmas now that both Shane and Kirsty are no longer with us.
And on stage Daryl Hunt, and Philip Chevron as well. Very sad but they are performing again together.
Ik, this is in a way a childhood song because I have heard this song on Christmas every year I've been alive
😢❤
Gone but never forgotten. R.I.P🙏🩷😇
The woke brigade will offend everyone and take out the word faggot
Thanks Shane and Kirsty. You are both missed and loved.

Merry Christmas from Ireland. Happy birthday Jesus our Lord ✝️
Wouldnt it be an absolutely fitting tribute to Shane & Kirsty if they re issued this song for Christmas this year?

Rest in peace together in a fairytale 🙏
Merci pour ta musique Shane!
What a great video. I get all teary eyed when I see McColl but now Mr MacGowan is up there with Kirsty I’ll be full blown tears. Like now.
Thirty plus years later, this is still the Pogues (and Kirsty's) best know song. And to be brutally honest, I never tire of hearing this!
This is my first Christmas song I listen to every year and also through the year it is a absolute classic ❤
This and streets of London are ethernal christmas hits, because of the message.
This song gives me goosebumps...the earthly quality and downright soul of it touches parts unreached by a lot of music, especially these days. Incredible performance. Peace and love ❤
Brave lady saving her sons as many would such a tragedy bless her ❤ RIP great singer
R.I.P. KIRSTY. STILL THE GREATEST CHRISTMAS SONG OF ALL TIME.
How they die

Remember that news day. The song has always been tinged with a bit of sadness since then 😔

This song is almost too sad to listen to now. Such a great lyricist. RIP Shane. Thank you for all the great songs.
A magical Christmas song. God bless Kirsty and Shane.
GOD I LOVE THIS SONG.... A LEGACY FOR EVER AND EVER.... SADLY MISSED BOTH OF THEM.....

RIP Kirsty MacColl, who died saving her children.
A true hero. RIP Kirsty
She's so Brave.
A true human hero.
Class act.
Never forget her and how she died! A lot of her singer collegues asked to investigate the circumstances of her dead.

My nan was from Dublin and every Christmas she would play this and we will always too in her memory. RIP Shane. ❤️

This song will be cherished for years to come. God bless rest in peace Shane
Now they both sing for the angels.
A new Christmas is coming.....
R.I.P. Shane.
Farewell to Shane MacGowan. He earned his unique place in the pantheon of great Irish writers.
To misquote Brendan Behan (another alcoholic genius), Shane McGowan was a drinker with a singing problem.
@smhorse he was a brilliant Irish poet, with a unique and excellent voice, RIP shane 🇮🇪 ❤
God bless Shane, thank you!
A poem for the ages. Beautiful and sad, joyful and optimistic, a tale we will never tire of.
R.I.P shane and kirsty your both now no longer with us and hope you will be singing this forever in heaven ❤❤
This has to go to Christmas number one 2023 now Shane and Kirsty have sadly passed ❤️❤️
There are not many songs where every time you listen to it, it feels like the first time. This and 'Whole of the Moon' are two that I can listen to over and over again without ever being bored.
