This Years Christmas Number One

Just a quick blog entry (for now) on the subject of this years "hot" tip for the xmas number one.

I am joining the appeal to get Malcolm Middleton's single "We're All Going To Die" to the coverted Number One in the hit parade this yule tide. Come on people you know it COULD happen.

So it may not have a christmas tree or tinsel in sight - which makes it a perfect contender. Remember the other year when the darkness were beaten by the one hit wonder that is/was Gary Jules

The lyrics them self, may at first glance may not be very festive, or laden with much joy - but hey for many the holidays are a time for endurance rather than celebration.

"We’re all going to die and what if there’s nothing
We’ll all have to face this alone
There’s a when not an if inside everybody
Mortal thoughts like this can make you feel so alone

You’re gonna die, you’re gonna die, you’re gonna die alone
You’re gonna die, you’re gonna die, you’re gonna die alone
All alone.

And what if I don’t become famous posthumously
Maybe my story’s no good
If I can take one posession then it’ll have to be my duvet
When oblivion comes calling it’ll be so cold

You’re gonna die, you’re gonna die, you’re gonna die alone
You’re gonna die, you’re gonna die, you’re gonna die alone
All alone.

When you can’t sleep at night and there’s no one to hold you
Remember I’m going through the same
You’ve got to laugh into the dark
We’re all one in a million
We’re alive, we existed, we took part, in the game.

We’re gonna die, we’re gonna die, we’re gonna die alone
We’re gonna die, we’re gonna die, we’re gonna die alone
We’re gonna die, we’re gonna die, we’re gonna die alone
All alone. "

watch this space for much more of this in the coming months. Meanwhile why not give Malcolm's myspace a visit:)
