Pogues' Christmas classic was almost the "Fairytale of County Clare"
The funny, unlikely, yet popular Irish Christmas song set in New York amidst the ringing bells is a favorite holiday-time duet year in, year out.

Pogues Christmas Song
Merry Christmas everyone 🎄✨ Here’s a little excerpt from our cover of “Fairytale of New York” — a song that has followed us through so many winters, memories, and singalongs. Some songs are more than songs. They become shared culture. So we’ll say it loud (and with love): UNESCO, please recognize “Fairytale of New York” as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Happy Christmas to you all ❤️🎶 #FairytaleOfNewYork #shanemacgowan #pogues | The PoguestrA

9.2K views · 300 reactions | The Pogues’ Fairytale of New York is the most-played Christmas song of the 21st century (before Mariah Carey's AIl I Want For Christmas Is You)!  In the chorus, Shane MacGowan has a standout lyric on which most listeners join in: “…the boys of the NYPD choir were singing Galway Bay…”. But did you know that there has never been an NYPD choir, so none have ever sung Galway Bay? Until now...  | EPIC The Irish Emigration Museum | Facebook
