19 December: Harry Nilsson: Remember (Christmas)
Published December 19, 2012
Harry Nilsson is one of my all-time favourite singers and this is one of his most beautiful songs. It's a song for all seasons, not only Christmas, but I'll take every opportunity I can to expose the world to this magnificent recording. You can probably learn a lot about me as a person and my view of life by listening to this.
'Remember (Christmas)' was released as a mildly successful single in 1972, and was also included on Son Of Schmilsson, Nilsson's last truly great album before self-indulgence and alcoholism took over. But that's another story.
Listen to 'Remember (Christmas)' here.
