Just spent some time listening to Cherry Ghost and my two favourites are Here Come The Romans and Four Eyes, although 4AM is OK and their next release apparently.

Just downloaded the new Christmas song, Ghost of Christmas FOC from their website.

Full of sleigh bells and guitars, very Slade/Wizzard.

Can't make out the lyrics properly yet, but I heard "drinking fizzy wine", "Scalextric", "playing Hot Wheels on the dinner table" and various other bits about pressies and shit like that.

Good song

 

[Melton Fox]

As far as I can work out, this is the first verse

Christmas day stuck in the seventies,
play all day with my Scalextric
Oh my god I got a Tomahawk
How sweet life can be.

It is a good song, but nothing like Slade or Wizzard IMO.

I thought it was predominantly drums and sax :icon_conf

Christmas day stuck in the seventies,
Play all day with my Scalextric
Oh my god I got a Tomahawk
How sweet life can be.

No X-box and no computers
We just used our imaginations
A leather football was perfection
What more could you want

Sleep through the Queens Speech
'Cause it means nothing to me
Zulu's on the ?????????? (may be wrong about the Zulu bit)
So it must be love

The ghost of Christmas has come
The ghost of Christmas has come

Hot Wheels on the dinner table
Too much sherry, at my Mum's table (poss)
But she's acting like Evel Knieval (poss)
??????????

Drink some Sparkly wine
Watch Morecombe and Wise
Christmas time??????
????????

The ghost of Christmas has come (x4)

Sax Solo

Guitar Solo

The ghost of Christmas has come (x4)

Hand Bell and Sleigh Bell solo (to end)

What about Merry Christmas Everyone by Shaky?, I bet you boogie around the tree to that.

I have never boogied in my life and neither will I.Don't have a Christmas tree.

 

[Melton Fox]

I have never boogied in my life.

But surely when Slade come and tell you about Granny "rock 'n' rolling with the rest", it's only natural to have a little boogie, even if by yourself

I sometimes go out into the street and get the old folks over the road to come out and boogie with me.
