Day 18 Geraldine – Once Upon a Christmas Song

This is just brilliant! ‘Once Upon a Christmas Song’ is a release by Geraldine, Peter Kay’s creation in response to the amount of reality TV on screen these days. After the success of ‘The Winner’s Song’ which reached Number 2 in the UK charts in October 2008, Peter decided to release a Christmas single and so ‘Once upon a Christmas Song’ was born. This also fared well and reached an impressive Number 5 in December 2008. It’s an exceptionally cheesy but catchy tongue-in-cheek song all about how Christmas songs are played and sung ‘over and over and over again’ until they get in our heads. In the process, this song also becomes ingrained in our brains…

And to make this even better, this song (in addition to ‘The Winner’s Song) is co-written by none other than my idol, Mr Gary Barlow!

Gotta love parody Christmas songs.
