It must be time for the Friday night Christmas song thread 2023.

[Beebo]

A new 2023 cover of an old song.
Marillions cover of the Greg Lake classic.
Very apt for the current situation in Bethlehem and surrounding areas.

The Gower Wassail - Steeleye Span. The rest of that playlist is them doing Christmas songs as well, but this is the one which resonates with me because my Morris side usually take part in the Wassail at the Gower heritage centre in January.
