lover of opera and classical music for 60 years, I can't explain why I love this man so much! If there was ever a free man on earth, it was him and I hope that he will find Kirsty and that they will be able to sing together until the end of eternity. Thanks to him for existing and showing us that other paths are possible...

I took my 5 year old son to Ireland for Christmas. He absolutely loved Fairytales of New York. He kept asking me to play it over and over again. He loved the part where the arse word was used as this was new to him in a song. His school in Oz didnt let them say Shut Up. This song appealed to everybody young and old. RIP Shane

Share was a legend. He chose to live his life his unique way, knowing full well he would never see very old age. But it was that uniqueness that also underscored his rich and stunning creativity. In a media age where celebrities act more fake and superficial than ever to look good and beautiful, Shane was the polar opposite. He just did not care. His love was his music and that music reflected the man, and for that we all loved Shane McGowan.

@@HrPaschulke1337 The message of Christmas is not a fairy tale, rather that hope and love can defeat anything including addiction. Unfortunately some have to die. It’s a depressing reminder that alcohol will destroy many homes this Christmas. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a good melody with strong lyrics but not at this time of year.

A brilliant singer song writer, A true love song in every way! This has been my Christmas song and story for years. Having been clean and sober I still haven't missed a year playing it or have it played. And being raised in Flint and Detroit Michigan 'Dirty old Town' was a favorite anthem as well but I love them all. Going to New York in 86' to see them in the East Village at The Ritz was insane and life changing. And the bow on that present was staying at The Chelsea Hotel. I turned 60 last month my friends and family well even myself thinking I'd never see 25 years old. I've had a full and colorful life and hope yours has been mostly good as well. I wish you all love, light and blessings today and always. Merry Christmas from Flint, Michigan.🎄
