  1. I like The Seaside Shuffle. Stop the Cavalry is a nice Christmas song but, as many of them do, it suffers from the fact that we have just heard it a thousand times. No matter how good a song is, I don't think that any of them could withstand such constant repetition without people starting to hate them.

    The spoof was entertaining, some awful musicianship but sung well and genuinely funny lyrics.

    But that's the charm, after all, it's Christmas! ;)

    It's from their Christmas album. There's a parody of Spandau Ballet's 'Gold' that's just sublime...
