If anyone stops at this song as their range for the Pogues, I encourage them to listen to Turkish Song of the Damned, If I should Fall from Grace With God, Irish Rover with the Dubliners, Poor Paddy, and Shane MacGowan and the Popes Paddy Public Enemy Number One and Paddy Rolling Stone.
May not be every ones cup of tea, but Its good fun Irish music. Yes I am a fan and listen to this song at Christmas at least once as well as the similar themed Ramones Merry Christmas, I Don’t Want to Fight Tonight.
Bottle of Smoke is my favorite, and A Man You Don’t Meet Everyday from Rum, Sodomy and the Lash.
