Whatever you do, please don't click on any links you see that promise to take you to the video of John Bon Jovi's new cover version of the Pogues & Kirsty MacColl's "Fairytale Of New York."
Such links will, in reality, redirect your browser to a video of John Bon Jovi's version of the Pogues & Kirsty MacColl's "Fairytale Of New York."
I mean, apart from the auld codger making right hames of our beloved classic, it's a duet, so what you've got is 4m 57s of Mister Jovi blathering to himself. Lads, he even changed the fekkin' lyrics and for reasons known only to himself, the absolute bollix calls your man a "squirrel." Seamus Heaney, he's fekkin' not.
A lad named Rob Smith Tweeted And The Pogues retweeted it from their official account.
That's how shite his version is. You'd get more pleasure from a puck in the gob.
Please don't click those links, they're an absolutely evil trap, and are no more, or less, than a gateway to sacrilege. Shane MacGowan (blessed be his name), would be spinning in his grave if he hadn't been one of the walking dead since 1983.

Too late already heard it on the radio. Can't be unheard now!
Thought my god, Bon Jovi sounds older than Willie Nelson's willy!

Two different flavours of dreck.
I hope to avoid them both!

It isn't, it can never be, worse than the utter dreck that is the original Pogues version.
No, I'm not clicking the link.
