Posted in Christmas Worldwide, Europe, UK by

Tellison is an indie band from London, UK. Here’s their christmas song “Good Luck It’s Christmas” :

And a few words from Timothy Dudley-Smith:

A song was heard at Christmas
To wake the midnight sky:
A saviour’s birth, and peace on earth,
And praise to God on high.
The angels sang at Christmas
With all the hosts above,
And still we sing the newborn King
His glory and his love.

So I want to say thanks for all your visits so far(hope you could get an insight to the christmas music in other countries), and I wish all of you a Merry, Merry Christmas and peace, love and calm to everyone, wheather he’s Christian, Muslim, Jew, Buddhist, Hindu or something else!
Merry Christmas!
