Each year, our Christmas songs become better-known and are performed by more and more artists, schools, choirs, churches and even the US Army band orchestra. They have won the UK songwriting Contest four times and been used by major TV networks during the festive season. An entire Florin Street musical is in development so watch this space! bit.ly/spoti-band
After struggling to gain record company support for his Victorian-themed idea, British singer-songwriter, Leigh Haggerwood, decided to make it happen himself by gathering together his musician friends and writing, producing and singing this Christmas song. The accompanying Christmas video was filmed at the fantastic Blists Hill Victorian Town at Ironbridge in Shropshire and it features the skills of top director Nick Bartleet and Cinematographer John Perez (known for his work on Coldplay's Viva La Vida, Beyoncé and many other productions). You can help spread some Christmas cheer by sharing this video - thanks for your support and best wishes for 2022!
My Favourite Time of Year
Words & music by Leigh Haggerwood
Verse 1
Lanterns lighting up the town,
Peace on earth is all around,
Everything is calm on Christmas Eve.
There's goodwill in the air tonight,
Angels sing by candle light,
Their voices carried on the wind.
When carol singers gather round,
When I hear that festive sound,
I wanna join with them and sing!
Chorus
They sing a merry song and we all sing along,
A festive melody that tells us Christmas time is here.
See the stars tonight; they're shining bright,
'Cause it's Christmas time and it's my favourite time of year.
Verse 2
Deck the halls with boughs of holly,
Give me mistletoe; it's the season to be jolly,
Wrapping presents, writing cards, helping decorate the tree,
But there's one thing that makes it all for me.
When carol singers gather round,
Angel voices fill the town,
It's like the world is joining in!
(Noel, Noel, Noel)
Chorus
They sing a merry song and we all sing along,
A festive melody that tells us Christmas time is here.
See the stars tonight; they're shining bright,
'Cause it's Christmas time and it's my favourite time of year.
Middle 8
Christmas Eve,
Still believe,
So excited,
Can't sleep,
When the morning comes,
Church bells ring,
And he's been!
Chorus
They sing a merry song and we all sing along,
A festive melody that tells us Christmas time is here.
See the stars tonight; they're shining bright,
'Cause it's Christmas time and it's my favourite time of year.
And it's my favourite time of year
(Noel, Noel)

Merry Christmas from Germany, Paderborn. Every year at Christmas time I have to listen to your songs, simply wonderful.
I’m back again this year ❤
I commented on this last year and I logged back into this account just to comment again 💗 I will come back every year becayse it is such a nostalgic song 😊
Hi from Dublin, Ireland. Lovely song and beautiful video.
I still can’t believe that this track never got picked up commercially, as I have this on my Christmas playlist every year & this is one of the best Christmas Songs to come out in the last 15 years. Shame on all those record labels & well done to The Florin Street Band.
Subscriu !
Totally agree, such a talented artist.
Totally agree , shame on the so-called public broadcastes
Very true 💯
Each time the Christmas season rolls around, this is ALWAYS the first Chrustmas song I listen to... with repeats throughout the season.
I am a hindu child from India I study in Christian school and personally I love this song and listen to it frequently I have sung the song in my school Christmas program with my friends (choir members) and everyone enjoyed the song so much😊
Ui
May your heart be touched by the one reason which makes this time of year so special...Jesus❤
@@rajestrisoogrim6368 Amen 🙏
That's so fantastic to hear! I love this song too. God bless ✝️ and take care of you. ❤
God bless you dear

Currently 40,000 per day and rising 😉 Merry Christmas 🎄✨
October 24th 2023. Exactly 2 months away from the night this video is about! Christmas Eve night!A truly magical song! I absolutely love it! I have introduced friends around the world it it! As well as ones just round the corner! Lol!
Who else is listening in June because the melody is unmatched?

Multumesc
Romania here,haha
Who else listens to Christmas songs in summer? It's May 26th now and I can't wait for the holidays to come! Greetings from Greece💙🤍
me too, its really motivating! greetings from scotland
Peace, joy, happiness, all the best thoughts and feelings - Who stops listening to Christmas songs?
This is one of the best Christmas songs I've ever heard.
Now, Christmas is near again.! Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas, blessed with God's love.
I'm back. It wouldn't be Christmas if I didn't listen to this song ten or more times this season. It stirred me the first time I heard it, and it still does. Brilliant, work of art. My friends of other ethnicity love it for what it represents. Anyone who criticizes this kind of music or the message it sends is heartless. It's not all about religion -- it's about brotherhood, friendship, burying the ax, forgiveness, celebration and who can't understand that simple concept? I'll be back next year and many years after -- this is uplifting, optimistic music and should be heard by many millions more even if they are not Christian. It's just people being human again and florinstreet and Leigh Haggerwood has given listeners a gift. Over 2 million listens -- remarkable.

This song is on my Christmas playlist and I was showing my Parents it. They normally don't like 'modern day Christmas songs' but they absolutely loved this one and I don't blame them. This was the first song they put on and on December 26th - 28th, we have a buffet and they played this song first each day. No one got tired of it. (October 16th)
As for me, Since I heard it the first time few years ago; I always play this song whenever I feel like listening to good songs. In fact, I play it even when it’s not yet a Christmas season also 😅. It really lifts up my spirits.
@@LanaBK8530 Don’t blame you
@@LanaBK8530this is so me
Listening to this in March : my excuse is that it is still snowing . SPREAD THE CHRISTMAS JOY !!!
Christmas is coming....... May joy fill your home. 🙏😀😊

You can't beat the Christmas feeling no matter how old you are
This song needs to be played on every station throughout this country this year. The United States needs to here this song every day on radio stations here.
I agree, what a wonderful song.
Its already December 😭 time goes by so fast
Christmas in July!!!
When I learning english, 10 yrs ago , my english teacher taught me this song and after all that time I came here every christmas for 10 yrs
Every year I play this, and every year I wonder why its not No1. Someone promote this!!! 🤷♂️
You are absolutely right.
Господи Боже,подаруй нам передріздвяне диво:зроби весь світ такий,як у цьому кліпі.Амінь.❤
It is about that time of the year again. Been playing this song every Christmas for the past 10 years. Enjooooooy!!
Can’t understand why this hasn’t been a massive hit it should be up there with all the classic Christmas songs 🎄👍
I know right this so is so good I love it
Thanks Kevin! Sadly no support from national radio when it was released, mainly because we were unknown artists and X Factor ruled the airwaves at the time. It seems to get more popular each year though, so maybe one day it'll be better-known. I hope you have a good Christmas 😊
Hi Thanks for your reply I’m nobody but I will text email and whatever as much as I can to radio stations to try to get them to play it it’s such a beautiful song I first heard it about 6 years ago and it’s part of our Christmas ever since wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and it’s my Favourite Time of year too
Well said, classic song up there with the best 👍🎄
@@kevinmarsham3500 I too push this to as many as possble it needs to be a Christmas number 1.
I am a Muslim, but I like the Christmas greetings from Indonesia......
Selamat pagi and Greetings from Hanau Germany, be bl 🙏
Happy Christmas to you from england
Can't wait for Christmas.... My favorite time of the year!

Extremely true 🙂 .. I very much agree .
This is the only song to listen to when you are really alone and it really will naver make you feel sad and no longer and keeps you in touch with the Christmas spirit
Ten years ago this song inspired me to share a different lovely song with a great video each day up to Christmas. All wonderful, none played on radio or featured on tv ❤
And I’m back again this year to hear this wonderful song, you know it’s CHRISTMAS 😊😊😊😊❤GB
I am listening in the United States and boy do we need Christmas. I need Christmas. My favorite song. Thank you for the blessing of this song.
This Christmas is different for me. My mom passed away cause cancer. I hear this song every morning. It feels like my mother always be with me. She's smile, she's happy with my dad. I Miss U guys.
She is with you! My late father is with me too, forever until we meet again. ❤️❤️

Almost lost my mind
But i know there here in my heart and I'll see them agian, that's what keeps me going
Prayers for you

Bless you 🙏
October 12th, 2023 here. I've never heard this song before...so glad to find it 😃👌🎅🏻
Hello, firstly I am from India and not a Christian, but this time has so many wondaful memories and your song is a part of it since the start. Every year I listen to this song, I respect all gods and religion. With much love and peace, god bless s all and thank you :)
Absolutely beautiful! I'm actually siting here with tears in my eyes! How ridiculous is that? The music, the song itself, the video, the props and costumes, perfection. It brought back so many memories of my childhood from days long gone by. My Dad believed that us kids couldn't appreciate the tractors on the farm unless we knew what it was like to have to use the horses first as he and my grandfather had done before me. We had eight draft horses and two saddle horses along with as many as 400 head of cattle at times. The grandparents place still used the wood stove in the kitchen to cook and two huge double firebox pot belly wood stoves to heat the house in the winter when I was growing up. We used the kerosene lanterns for light in the barn and about the land. To this day I still use the old kerosene lamps and the wood stove in my home, not just for winter heat and emergency lights, but for the atmosphere at Christmas. You have no idea how this warmed my heart and I'm looking forward to not only seeing and hearing more, but also seeing this one become a Christmas classic for generations to come. You truly have a gift. God bless and a very merry Christmas to you and yours.

Oh my God, John , echo those sentiments so much - this is a fantastic masterpiece of Christmas music.
You have a great Christmas!
Still listening to this incredible Christmas song even though it's not Christmas. Doesn't matter. It's that good. It was released a few years ago, and it's still is a thrill to listen to and watch. Great, GREAT band.
Over 11 Years ago, i discovered this beautiful Masterpiece.
Still in love with it. ❤️
It is the BEST Christmas SONG that I have never heard for more than half a century of mine, It is a Blessing, it transports you to the essence of Christmas, of Life and love of God, CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL, one vibrates listening to it and watching the video💖🎁
*This reminds me when I was little,* back in my country (The Dominican Republic). When my entire neighborhood would be outside on the streets, just enjoying this special time of the year.
-
*[Memories, that I will never forget].*
We celebrated Christmas in your former country while we were in Punta Cana. It's our favorite place to vacation in December to get out of the cold weather. The people of your country are WONDERFUL!!!!!
I love Christmas like a child
It's been 13 years, I remember it was just newly released when I stumbled on this. And since then, I keep on playing this wonderful song every holiday season. Definitely my most favourite Xmas carol.
Love this song So much of Christmas Feelings ... I listen to this even non Christmas times .... One of the best Recent Christmas Songs Ever....
who will still be there in 2021🦋❄️
I have a Christmas wish, let's all be happy in these troubled times. Let's be there for eachother & remember our homeless people on the streets too. If each person can help even just one homeless person, you will have made a difference to someone's life. Everyone deserves to be happy. It's not good being on the streets, it's hard & cruel. It's far from what the media would have you belive. It's mothers, fathers, children, familys, ex servicemen/servicewomen, disabled, elderly, they are all vulnerable & in need of your help. Please help them in any way you can. Joy to the the world. Thank you
I wish I could jump inside of video to celebrate Christmas time...good food and drink..
People around...praying new born King...play at snow...dress pretty and dance and sing...listen great music...read Christmas gospel...admire decorated Christmas tree...bake cookies and cakes..
Share it with young and old...everyone...
This is the best Christmas song it reminds the old days when things used to have meaning and worth❤
Time to start playing Christmas songs for this year ❤️here again 💃💃
God bless
This is the only Christmas song that I am playing repeatedly in 2020 maybe because of the current situation we are in and I am missing the old Christmas days.
19 million views! That’s encouraging that so many people still believe in Christmas!
There was 3 years since the first time I heard this song. Now, I am 23 years old.There are 3 months left until the Christmas. Hanoi, October 1st, 2023. Try your best,Snow!
