What I like about this is that it’s an attempt to emulate the glitz and pomp of the glam rock Christmas classics from the 1970s, and it more or less succeeds. That the song hasn’t passed into Christmas legend isn’t its fault: it’s genuinely good. It stopped being fashionable to like The Darkness, but for a few months there they were, in their own way, very good indeed. And this video has everything, including a children’s choir and a Christmas message at the end. What more could you want? A penis reference, you say? It’s got that too. Enjoy.
