We have been enjoying your postings of Christmas music. thank you. U 2 are not British, They are Irish.
I think Sam Smith is about 22 years old (first video posted) and if you watched the BandAid 30 video, you may have noticed that many of the musicians performing “Do They Know its Christmas” are around that same age.
The best selling single of all time, not just among Christmas songs, worldwide is Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas.” I think a great holiday song whether beautiful music, heart rending, thought provoking, just plain fun, and/or any combination of, remains an ageless treasure to cherish for all time.

Do they know how old they are. I’m sure the kids have no idea who these people are. Time for them to hang it up!
