Already had enough of Christmas? Then why not enjoy seeing Jacques Dutronc being buried under a symbolic avalanche of captiatlist Christmas-ness?
If only he'd been dressed up as Père Noël too.
Oh dear, sounds like poor Christophe is aching again this yuletide season, but at least he still believes in Father Christmas...
I posted this a few years ago, but in case you've never seen it, this is the Dim Dam Dom 1966 Christmas nativity, with Serge as Joseph, Chantal Goya as Mary, Sylvie Vartan narrating and Jacques Dutronc being... odd.
Let's be honest the whole thing is quite odd, very French, and very of-its-time.

I had hoped to post a couple of festive mp3s, but there's a problem with the site that hosts my files and I can't upload or access any files at all. Snowballs!
Joyeux Noël readers, I'll be off for a while ("so what's new?" you all cry), enjoying a 1st familial christmas and scoffing my body-weight in stollen.

Joyeux Noël
****Happy Christmas / Joyeux Noël****
We're a bit too busy dealing with Christmas to give you a post about Christmas. But we will be providing some support over the festive period for those who choose to remain in Brighton...
We know we’ll all be bored of our new toys, and sick of arguing with relatives come the end of Boxing Day, so here’s a chance to escape for a few hours:
SATURDAY 27th DECEMBER
L'AMOUR ELECTRONIQUE
The West Hill (formerly The Belle Vue),
Buckingham Place, Brighton
(it's just up the hill next to Brighton Station!)
9pm – 3am
FREE ENTRY ALL NIGHT LONG.
Dom and Verity will be playing French bubblegum pop, synthesized sounds and electronic nuggets to ease you on your way from Christmas to New Year’s Eve.
We will be joined in record playing duties by Estelle (who is properly French and will show us up).
Come along it will be pleasant and booze-y.
Here's a yuletide youtube to get you in the mood
MERRY PROG-ING CHRISTMAS (don't fear the Prog, kids)
