    Really enjoyed this one. This is probably the most unique Christmas song I have ever heard. Combining 90's rock, stories of prison and visuals of a warm Australian Christmas, it was quite great to watch. What do you think about it?

      We love Paul Kelly. He has written dozens of great songs, such as Dumb things, To her door, From little things, etc etc etc but those 3 are a great place to start. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

    The Australian Christmas song Paul is a national icon his catalogue is enormously impressive a lot of historical sociopolitical stories, many indigenous stories too.

When he was compiling a 'greatest hits' album, he asked his mum for her favourites, she gave him a list with 100 songs on it. 'To Her Door's and 'Leaps and Bounds' are couple of my favourites, but there are so many to choose from.

    I cannot listen to this song without crying. He is writing his letter to his family for Christmas as he was the one assigned the gravy making. - Don't please ever say American and Paul Kelly in the same sentence. H does not sound the least bit American and I am a bit confused about that comparison. In Aus we had several bands that were SO Australian. That was in a time when bands were playing gigs in pubs and people actually went to listen to music. Noi downloads then. We love him. So much. I actually watched a video of him talking about how he wrote this: he was asked to write a Christmas song and had to go down his path. PAUL KELLY - a legend of Australia. It was on RAGE this morning if you want to find the link.

    Yes, Paul got asked to sing on a Christmas album, and the song he wanted to sing was already taken by another singer, so he decided to write the song. he took a little bit of inspiration from his favourite Christmas song White Christmas only in that the main character can't be home for Christmas and he decided the reason he can't be home is he is in gaol.

    Another great reaction. Thank you... again...
    As others have already commented, this song has become a Christmas tradition here in Oz.
    Here's a little history of the song courtesy of the ABC:
    "In 1996 Kelly was invited to record a song for an annual charity Christmas album organised by fellow musician Lindsay Field.
    When Kelly discovered his chosen cover song had been performed on a previous year's compilation, Field encouraged him to write an original.
    With no shortage of Christmas songs out there, Kelly's challenge was to come up with something unique and distinctly his own.
    "I started thinking ... maybe I'll write it from the point of view of somebody who is missing Christmas, who can't get to Christmas," he said.
    "Why can't they get there? Maybe they're overseas and they can't get home. Then I thought, oh, he's in prison."

    Paul Kelly is probably our best songwriter and a genuine national treasure. This song has cemented itself into the psyche of Australia, especially over the last couple of years when families have been separated at Christmas due to COVID. So much so that Dec 21 is officially Gravy Day. Check on UA-cam and you’ll find numerous covers of the song by people at home celebrating it, including mass choirs.
    Kelly has a long career of writing and recording outstanding music. Check out To Her Door, Dumb Things, Deeper Water and From Little Things Bog Things Grow just for starters.
    And Happy Gravy Day, mate!

    Hi. I realise you posted this a year ago, but there's a reason I'm commenting now. It's because in a month or so, just in time for Christmas, there's a movie coming out based on this song. It's interesting to me that on first hearing you've imagined he's writing a letter & going off the trailers I've seen, that's the way the movie makers see it too. Yet for me & I'm sure I'm not the only one, I imagined he was on the phone! Firstly, who writes a letter on the 21st of December, expecting it will arrive before Christmas & Secondly, why would he say, "I didn't mean to say that". If he's writing, he'd surely just scrub that out.

    Several years ago, PK was asked to contribute a Xmas carol for an album
    Unfortunately, his preferred choice had already been snapped up by another artist
    So he decided he’d just have to write his own Xmas carol…

    Such an awesome Christmas song, it has inspired a LOT of us Aussies to celebrate National Gravy Day every December 21st, and there was also an updated clip released last year where, rather than watching Paul and the band for the whole clip, we get to see a whole bunch of regular(ish) Aussies lip-sync to the song.
    Also, yeah you got it right, it's a story told from the perspective of someone in prison for Christmas, and he's writing a letter home to his brother. Second "also" is that the recipe in the song is an actual recipe (from Paul's family, I believe?) for making gravy.

    This is the TRUE Australian Christmas Carol..
    Please check out the version posted on my page TODAY, recorded (by the ABC) by First Nations prisoners with Pitjantjatjara ( One of the South Australian Indigenous languages) translation.
    Its so poignant, heartbreaking, and recorded in one take.. inside the Eastern Goldfields Regional Prison, Western Australia..
    Enjoy our favourite Australian Christmas song..

    Think of "How to Make Gravy" and an unromantic version of "Unchained Melody" because they are both songs of hope from a prisoners point of view.

    The only song that compares is "Fairytale of New York" by The Pogues and Kristy McNicholl (R.I.P.)
    That would be so your style, check it out..

    @MTSV Please do a reaction to an Australian band called Taxiride. You'll be blown away with the melodies and harmonies.

    We're a country founded by convicts..a prisoner writing a christmas letter home isn't that much of a stretch really..but in saying that I'm not sure anyone other than Paul Kelly could pull it off..
