a Christmas tune

we're feeling Christmasy, so here's Goldblade's 'City of Christmas Ghosts' featuring the lovely Poly Styrene. Goldblade's lament to lost friends now made more poignant with the loss of the former X-Ray Spex singer.

The song was written about the melancholic side of Xmas, a time of year when you think about lost friends and comrades and it was tragically ironic that the duet ended up having an extra edge to it with the former X-Ray Spex singer dying from cancer in 2011.

The song is now dedicated to her and proceeds from the single will go towards raising money for the hospice that looked after the singer - St Michaels Hospice, animal charity Food For Life and anti-war charities.
