Blogger Richard Van Winkle has taken apart the Shakin' Stevens song 'Merry Christmas Everyone', much to the delight of the three people who regularly read his blog.
The article starts by tearing into the opening verse from the perspective of 2020.
'If we look at the lyrics, such as they are, they don't work. 'Snow is falling all around us' - no, it isn't, Mr Stevens. 'Children playing, having fun' - not around my place, they aren't. 'Tis the Season, love and understanding'. What is this? The set of Eastenders? Coronation Street? Merry Christmas Everyone.'
Van Winkle is one of those blokes you avoid on the train and bus, and has been married three times. That is a depressing thought for all of us.
