Day 07 - A Song That Reminds Me of An Event

This post is part of a series of posts in The 30 Day Song Challenge

I have taken 'a certain event' to mean an event in general, in this case Christmas.  In particular this song reminds me most of my first job working in Currys.  I worked there in the run up to Christmas and they had a CD with about 10 Christmas Songs on it that repeated over and over.  By the time Christmas that Year had been and gone I knew all the words to the song and I never wanted to hear it again.  Needless to say at Christmas time with the Music Channels a common feature in our house [my brother would watch them for hours] that song was played even more that year.

Every year now when I hear that song I know it's Christmas, it reminds me of Currys and actually makes me glad I am not working there anymore [it was hell you were on your feet all day - if you are too in your job I feel your pain].  In case you have never heard this song [I would not beleive you] here's the video:
