Time For Some Eagles Christmas Magic!

There is nothing better than holiday music – everyone from Paul McCartney to his long-time writing partner John Lennon has written hit holiday singles:

The Eagles Come Home For Christmas!

And of course, The Eagles had one of the most beautiful holiday songs of all!

“Please Come Home for Christmas” was the band’s cover version of a 1960 holiday song – a plaintiff wail for a lost lover to return for the holidays…

The immediately recognizable voice of Don Henley kicks it off in classic Eagles style…

“Bells will be ringing this sad sad news
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby’s gone I have no friends
To wish me greetings once again

Choirs will be singing “Silent Night”
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas

If not for Christmas by New Years night…”

  1. What a glorious selection – I love The Eagles and it is great to see John and Paul in the mix.

  2. I am not a huge fan of seasonal songs, but I do have a soft spot for Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’. And let’s not forget George Michael, with Wham’s ‘Last Christmas’.
    Best wishes, Pete.
