Reply:Was Kirsty McColl for sure. I thought she was Irish, or Anglo-Irish then moved to America but I could be wrong. Yeah, she had a great Christmas hit with the Pogues, an Irish band called "Fairy Tale of New York", she also had a few hits in the 80's in England, two I can remember were "New England" and "Days", but her song "There's a Guy Works Down the Chip Shop Swears He's Elvis" is pretty well known. Her greatest hits cd is well worth getting, there are some good tune on there and Fairy Tale of New York is my favourite Christmas song ever. I'm pretty sure she's Anglo-Irish or English. Anyway, she was great, a real tragedy when she was run over by a speedboat, in Mexico I think.
Reply:Kirsty McColl /McCall. (I'm not too sure of the correct spelling!) That Christmas song you are thinking of is called "Fairytale of New York" and she sang it with The Pogues.
Reply:Kirsty Anna MacColl (born at Mayday Hospital in Croydon (South London) on 10th October 1959) not Scottish

or Irish. She sang with Shane Mcgowan of the Pogues.
Reply:Kirsty McColl English not American song was fairytale of new york with the pogues
Reply:Kirsty macoll, and she was English. Bought up in Croydon London. The band were the Pogues, and it still remains the greatest christmas song. She was killed by a moron driving a speedboat, she was protecting her children when it it her.

The driver got away with it, we lost a tremendous artist, her kids lost a mother!

JUSTICE FOR KIRSTY
