    I was born in '84 so Wizzard & Slade had always been part of the Christmas landscape for me, hard to believe they were both released in the same year. I'm a metalhead, but glam rock has always had a special place in my heart - Slade, T-Rex, Mott the Hoople, Sweet, Bowie, Mud are fantastic. Roy Wood is an absolute genius (early ELO, The Move and of course Wizzard). Weird, the 1970s seem like a magical time, but I think maybe I'm just getting nostalgic as I push 40, even for decades when I wasn't actually alive.

    I miss those times. I was a kid back then. Christmas was a magical time. Despite my dad beating me regularly with a stick, taking his anger out on me while being browbeaten by a manic depressive wife and mother, I still loved Christmas. I've grown though, have kids of my own. Have never beaten them and never been mean to them. My job now is to do better than my father and mother and to raise my children with love, tolerance and understanding. I'm better than my parents ever were and I hope that my kids will do even better than me. I hope they enjoy Christmas as it should be enjoyed with wonderful songs like this. We'll have gifts, love, hugs and togetherness, We'll have Christmas dinner with all the frills and I'll make it magical as best I can...... The hurt stops with me.

    It's great being able to watch and listen to such a great Christmas song in 2024. It certainly takes me back to the 1970's with a sense of nostalgia and pride but also with great horror aswell. I grew up in Catholic Ireland, where members of the clergy roamed at will doing what they did looking for their next victim. That cast a terrible dark cloud over a generations childhoods.
