| This afternoon, they were playing Stop the Cavalry on the PA of Sheffield's glamourable Moor Market. This is the first Christmas song I have heard this year. _________________ |

| I meant to start this thread last week - when I heard Jeremy Vine play Fairytale of New York, in what was practically mid November. I turned the radio off as soon as I heard it start. |

- Magic Radio is determined to get its listeners into the festive spirit - by playing Christmas music all the time.
Previously Magic Christmas was offered in addition to the main station. But this year the regular playlist will be replaced by a diet of merry music.
"I can't wait to kick Christmas off," said breakfast host Ronan Keating.

| I heard the beginning of Warm This Winter by Gabriella Cilmi earlier on Sara Cox's show. It's one one of the more modern Christmas-ish songs you hear occasionally over the festive period and is perhaps less annoying.
Whatever happened to her anyway? |

And Ken Bruce played it again this morning. I think Radio 2 are playing the less popular "Christmas" songs first - I still haven't heard any of the more popular ones, other than Jeremy Vine playing Fairytale of New York in the middle of November. |

I can’t remember it now When you say "new", do you mean the one that was released last year? |

| I still haven't heard Slade or Wizzard - have they fallen out of fashion, only to be replaced with Christmas songs by the likes of Sia, Coldplay, Leona Lewis and Gabriella Cilmi? |

| I've not had any music radio on so far this December and, so, have heard no Christmas songs on the radio. I'm about to put Radio 2 on. It had better be playing Christmas music, or there'll be trouble. _________________ |

| Hang on, I can tell you the specific song, https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0001hm4 Maybe I got it confused with Gabriella Cilmi? I think Ocean Drive by the lighthouse Family effected my brain. |
