On Christmas Day in the morning? Wherever did that come from? Did anyone ever record it? It's the one tune that pops into my head every December 25th. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

I haven`t stopped laughing since seeing Pans People the other night on a re-run of Mike Oldfields version of the tune or similar, in which another one them appeared jigging about like a pixie on an internet cloning site every 16 bars! Pure comedy! Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Actually since starting the thread I've found a fascinating Wikipedia article which says Marianne Faithful did a version. Anyone know it? Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

I've heard a few versions, including one by Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band, and a rather abstract version by Jon Anderson. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.
