I think there was a Boney M Christmas album 'back in the day'. I was well into them with at least four LPs and a single (also a poster on the wall that came with one LP). The last album of theirs I got was trying to add a touch of ska and I was switching to 2-Tone purchases then. Mary's Boy Child is probably there most known Christmas song.My virtual jigsaws: https://www.jigsawplanet.com/beccabear67/Original-photo-puzzles

I used to listen to local FM radio a lot in the late '80s and early '90s, and I've recently been re-discovering some of the songs that these stations had a love affair with at the time, but didn't usually make it very far up the charts. mobdro 2022

Brown Girl in the Ring hardly gets any airtime, probably because it was a B-side originally.
Gotta go home was probably my favourite of theirs.

Okay, I'll chuck three off the top of my head. When I was an " infant" it seemed like these were on constantly.
Pass me by - Peggy Lee
Good morning starshine - Oliver
Don't let the rain fall down - The Serendipity Singers.
Yeah, I'm getting on a bit!

Today It's C'est Le Vie by Robbie Nevil & By Your Side by The Eurythmics, which I haven't heard outside of my music collection for years.

Yes, it was originally the B side. Rivers of Babylon started to drop down the charts but stations started to play the B side. It rose back up the charts but didn't quite reach the top spot. So it was still the B side even at number two in the charts. Surprised to hear it gets less play than their other hits.

It was number four in my birth week charts.I've everything I need to keep me satisfied

And I assume that "Oliver" wasn't Oliver Twist the musical?

Glibby-gloop-gloopy, nibby-nobby-noopy [sic] - a huge mondegreen. Now, what was all that about? More like Oliver Reed than Oliver to be honest!
