1440.0. "Poques Christmas Song?" by SISDA::HURLEY () Thu Dec 01 1994 11:06

	What's the name of the Pogues song about Christmas?. I've
	been told Christmas Day, Christmas in New York etc. The
	last line of the chorus is "the bells rang out on Christmas
	Day". What album is it on?

    It's called 'Fairytale of New York' from the 1988 album 'If I Should
    Fall from Grace with God'.

    I defer to Gerry's infinite knowledge of things Pogue-ish.  Our local TV
    music station, MuchMucus, quoted the song as I wrote it and from the
    album of the same name - but, then they didn't ask Gerry, did they.
