Geraldine McQueen - Once Upon A Christmas Song

Anyone who has jumped on the Susan Boyle badwagon (though talented she may be) ought to watch 'Peter Kay's Britain's Got The Pop Factor', a brilliant spoof of Reality TV talent competitions and the contestants who enter them - here's the intro and you can find other clips on Youtube here. Geraldine McQueen, a transsexual former cruise ship entertainer (actually Peter Kay in drag), was the 'winner' and this is the single that was released last Xmas. It fulfills 2 of my Guilty Pleasures: novelty songs and Xmas songs (why does this nice Jewish boy love Xmas songs? Who knows...) and I apologise in advance if you end up humming it for the next 2 weeks! Co-written by Peter Kay and Gary Barlow from Take That, fact fans...


Bonus Clip: The entire 'Britain's Got The Pop Factor' - not the best quality but certainly watchable.
