Subject: 80's holiday music
Can anyone tell me if the songs listed under 80s holiday music can be purchased? I would like to purchase some of these songs especially U2's "baby please come home" Any help would be great!

I have seen the "Do They Know It's Christmas?" 12 inch single around in record shops here. I have the 7" single, but I got that back in 1984. I don't know if that still exists. It might. I've never once seen the Band Aid II version. "Fairytale Of New York" by The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl can be found on The Pogues' album If I Should Fall From Grace With God. I don't know about any others...

Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) by U2 is available on the "Very Special Christmas" CD. It is an awesome compilation with The Pretenders, Eurythmics, Sting, Alison Moyet, Madonna, Bon Jovi, Stevie Nicks, and Madonna. There are a few more, but those are what I can remember from the top of my head.

:oAnyone remember the "Twisted Christmas"album by Bob Rivers Comedy Corps? The best songs on the album are"The Twelve Pains of Christmas"where the 'lights rigger-upper'goes nuts trying to get the X-mas lights working,"A Visit from St.Nicholson(Jack Nicholson parody),"Oh Come all Ye Grateful Deadheads","The Chimney Song'(There's something stuck in the chimney,it's Saint Nick!)and "The Restroom Door Said Gentlemen",in which a poor sap fella gets a pretty rude(but darn FUNNY)awakening!! Another wacky Christmas song is "Christmas at Ground Zero"by Weird Al Yankovic! :P

I love "The 12 Pains of Christmas"! It is a classic! ;D
Subject: Re: 80's holiday music
I liked Do They Know Its Christmas, Last Christmas by Wham! and Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time by Paul McCartney.
P.S.
I love the 12 Pains too.
