So this week everyone’s talking about the Christmas adverts starting on television. Although they do stir some sort of childhood nostalgia, I think the music accompanying the adverts is what makes it special for me. Last year John Lewis gave us Gabrielle Aplin’s The Power of Love cover and the nation melted.

For the rest of the year when I heard that song, the memory of being sat round the dining table with my family, still avoiding the Brussel sprouts and thinking how nice it was to have everyone together.  This year on the John Lewis advert Lily Allen covers ‘Somewhere Only We Know’ by Keane and I already want it on my Ipod.

What songs remind you of Christmas? (Other than cheesy Christmas jangles!)
