Yes. In the Bleak Midwinter, Silent Night, The Christmas Song, and White Christmas are certainly outre choices. Everybody knows a turkey.

Congratulations on missing my point.

The limited edition box is now sold out.

WATCH OUT WORLD!

Just heard the new single for the first time and it comes with a lovely video too, much better than I thought this song would be, really impressed. And of course it won't be a hit at all, just like the recent PSB singles, but who cares? Just as long as they keep on releasing music I'm happy and this version is fantastic!

Truly horrific. The worst single I've ever heard. It's nothing to do with songs being hits or not anymore, that's long gone for most older acts but i'm sorry, this is horrendous. This is the same guys that gave us Blue Savannah.

0/10 for me. Track one should have been released.

And whats Mother Theresa doing making an appearance at 0:34.

Really?? I can't take you seriously on this one, the Erasure version is fantastic, much better than I thought it would be. Try and be a bit more neutral, no, it's no Blue Savannah but then again Thursday by PSB is no West End Girls, time to forget these type of comparisons as they are just not relevant.

Its okay, nothing more nothing less, although I do applaud them for trying something diffrent.
Of all the samples I have heard from Snow Globe, Gaudete was the one I thought was the weakest one.
I like most of the video though.

It's awful. I've always hated the song anyway. It's weird.

A few of the clips do sound good. Track 1 and even Silent Night with the little movie was alright but this I can't abide.

#179 Top 1500 i-Tunes single chart. Higher than I expected...

Much better than I expected. 6/10.

I quite like it, good to see them do something different. Of all the samples this is actually my favourite

Funny how taste differs..

#170.

Holding up quite well #179 this morning.

Better than I expected... it's got more of a trademark Vince Clarke feel to it than anything I've heard from them in recent years.
