As it's getting up to Chrimbo, let's get festive. I noticed how, even tho it's not his best, 'Shine On Me' off TGS re-release sounds a bit Christmassy. So I'm compiling 'John Foxx - Songs for a Swinging Christmas'. So far:
Shine On Me
Shadow Dancing (Off N12)
Sidewalking
Ray1/Ray2 (instant fave!!)
Magic
Electrofear
Your Kisses Burn (N12 version)
City Of Light (IMW version)
What Kind of a Girl
Sailing On Sunshine
Freeze Frame
Running In Traffic
In A Silent Way
Through My Sleeping (Exotour version)
Nightlife (A Room as big.. version)
Wings and a Wind?
Night Suit?
The 1st song on the Annie Clarke Album

any others? Obviously parodies and songs with words that rhyme with 'Ding' 'Dong' 'Snow' etc can be included

eg 'Snow-One's Driving', 'Mr Snow'

Cheers

I always think of "Glimmer" as a Christmas song — don't know why, because the original single it was on came out at the beginning of Spring, but that particular instrumental has a twinkly-fairy-lights-reflection quality to it that I always associate with falling snow.
