80s acapella christmas song ??????????????

Whats the name of the song/ group that sing an acapella christmas song? I think it's from the 80s and got quite high in the charts (not sure about No 1) and the video's set in a pub. It's a group of 4+ men.

Thanks :smile: Nix :xmas:

After I went offline, I did remember that it wasn't 'caravan of love' as that fits the criteria except for being in a pub, but forgot to mention that in my OP and thought that that would be the only suggestion.

Totally agree, as is anything by Alison Moyet. Saw her with Jools Holland last year - she's still got it.

Her voice is gorgeous
The Flying Pickets version is good but the Yazoo version was better, I think you need the electronic sound of the keyboard to really set it off.

Also Alison Moyet is incredible, I think she's massively underrated. As a vocalist I would put her as one of the all time greats of British music, in fact I can't think of a better British female vocalist off the top of my head.
If you can find it, listen to her album 'The Voice' - superb
Love both versions, infinitely superior to anything in recent Xmas charts.
