To celebrate the festive season, we are giving you 5 straight days of weird and wonderful Christmas anthems that probably won’t make it into the charts at all… Unless another Rage Against The Machine event happens!

We couldn’t go through 5 whole days of Christmas songs without dropping ONE slightly traditional song on you, but fear not as this is a big band swing Christmas song!

Whether you’re 80 or 8 you have to appreciate the music of Glenn Miller and the era of the Big Band. Creating a whole new sound that stood out from the established norm of the time took guts, determination and a fair degree of luck. Miller was essentially an early 30’s punk rebel, without the mohawk… or the spitting.

Either way, for the purist’s amongst you who believe Christmas should be about log fires, turkey and family arguing with each other after too much sherry, here you go!
