I’m not usually a sucker for Christmas music but I caught a re-run of The Hour’s holiday special (from Dec 21st) last night , which offered a twist on tradition.
I loved that George dressed up for the occasion – fancy shoes and a jacket, no less – and not of the motorcycle variety.
Also adored Michael Bublé’s fashion vibe: grey, mildly ripped jeans, nice white shirt, skinny black tie (or was it charcoal?), grey suit jacket and patent grey shoes. Dapper.
Here’s a preview.
You can download all the performances for free…they include great collaborations by Metric and the Hamilton Children’s Choir + The Mighty Pope and The Sadies, among others.
But my fave Christmas song is still…
Shane McGowan makes his own fashion statement with the striped shirt, aviators and bad teeth with Kirsty MacColl in all her big haired glory, from a live performance by The Pogues in 1988.
Happy Christmas, music and fashion lovers.
