Could you help me find a particular Christmas song?

[KatyMac]

It's something about 'Christmas day in the morning' but it's not I saw three ships

It's a girl singing I think

[louvert]

Do you have any more info? Is it modern? Any idea of the style?

[KatyMac]

Modernish - pop (ish)

Quite christmassy music, quite high

[KatyMac]

Sounds a bit Annie Lennox but I'm not sure it is her

[KatyMac]

Anyone?

[CaptainNancy]

Hayley westenra? She's done some christmassy things...

[BigTillyMincepie]

Isn't Annie Lennox recent album a Christmas songs/ carols reworked one? It could be that?

[KatyMac]

Nope but thanks for the suggestion

I think it was on Radio 2 today

[WhatsWrongWithYou]

Craig Charles played a Christmas song by her this afternoon - can't remember what it was called but she sang it in a sort of rasping folksy way which grated on me as I like a carol to sound like a carol.

Are we getting warmer?

[louvert]

Have a look at Thea Gilmore " That'll be christmas" It's on youtube. Doesn't have the words you were wanting, but I heard it this morn on Ken Bruce and thought it was Annie Lennox-y Worth a look.

[louvert]

Sorry about appalling texting - I'm on the phone in bed and all giddy - "Name That Tune" is my favourite game!

[AstridsTardisDisaster]

KT tunstall was singing on radio this morning on the chris evans show. could it be that?

[WhatsWrongWithYou]

No, cancel that, it was 'God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen.'

[BaroqinAroundTheChristmasTree]

Lennox's new one has a few carols on it - but not one with Christmas day in the morning.

[louvert]

Do you know there are playlists for some of the Radio2 programmes? If you could tell us the programme, we might be able to wittle it down from there.

[KatyMac]

Nope not on Steve Wright or Jeremy Vine

Oh poo maybe I am imagining it

[KatyMac]

I feel so silly

[BaroqinAroundTheChristmasTree]

no no no - tell us more

Mayo, Bruce, Evans?

different radio station??

[KatyMac]

Can't be a different radio station - it's not allowed

I wonder if they had a CD on - I'll go & look

[louvert]

Don't give in - we'll find it eventually!

(If only mumsnet had a sound recording facility; you could hum a bit for us!)

[KatyMac]

I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket; I'm a disaster

[KatyMac]

Hmm not on the CDs near to the CD player

Goodness this is annoying

The music was quite, well almost bell like

[Lotkinsgonecurly]

This is the song stings version. There are lots of covers of it. Really nice

[Lotkinsgonecurly]

I think the version was Annie Lennox and her new Christmas album.

[KatyMac]

It was a modern song, maybe early on Christmas morning
