Jesus loved snow, which you'd know if you'd paid attention at school.

Was also passionate about 'hilarious' woolly clothing, Bruce Willis & Macauley Culkin films, and Halfords' Bike sales

He was some man!

And another thing, why is snow associated with Christmas? It very rarely snows at Christmas (at least not where I live), but it's all over Christmas songs, cards, films, etc.

That goes back to Charles Dickens time when they had a lot of snowy winters.

That was ages ago. We need some more apt Christmas songs now.

"Outside it's pishing, and I'm wishing, you a happy holiday" or something like that.

He was also a big fan of Mott The Hoople.

I have a feeling I might have to explain that one to many on here

Only to the Young Dudes.

I wasn't really planning to do Whamageddon this year, which is a good thing, because I was hit at 9 o'clock this morning in the supermarket with the seasonal dirge.

I don't mind the Wham xmas song at all.

Bet it has made them a pretty penny these past 40 years.

Pretty impossible to avoid when you’ve got young kids. Think as soon as it turned 1 November, it’s all I’ve heard in the shops here.

Kylie Minogue is the Christmas number one with her song XMAS.

I haven't heard the song because I think it is only available on Amazon, but good on her. I like Kylie.

Apparently everything goes to Andrew Ridgely.

George Michael gave up his share of the royalties after he left Wham
