First play on Radio 1 within the next ten minutes.

It has bells fading out at the end. I'm excited.

I love it! It would be so so great if they got to Number 1. Now that is a PROPER CHristmas record. If Noddy, ( And I bet my life savings the cheeky girls have got some tosh out for Xmas too)get to Number One then we might as well just all start wearing earplugs on Dec 25th...

Satire is alive and well on DS.

Great song, nowhere near as tongue-in-cheek as the title suggests, but just pure Christmas-flavoured rock. I'll be buying it, and i don't buy singles. Or albums. You'll never take me alive RIAA!

Christmas Time (Don't Let The Bells End)

No tittering at the back! And no, it's not on the album. Buy it. Buy it lots.

The Darkness have been very sneaky for not putting this on the album, because people who have bought the album will go out and buy this single, I haven't heard it yet, but The Drakness are performing it on the whole new TOTP this Friday!

A sure fire #1 single.

Sorry if this makes anyone puke with jealousy, but my best friend just phoned me to say that she's won tickets to The Darkness homecoming gig in Great Yarmouth, and I'm her VIP guest! Before you start, yes, I know The Darkness are from Lowestoft (I'm nearly local - Norwich), but they had to play at The Marine because of crowd problems. (For the benefit of any non-Norfolk peeps, The Marina is leisure centre with a swimming pool. I haven't been there since I was ten. It's very definitely not the Astoria).
If she wasn't already my best friend, I'd snog her.
If they perform Bell(s) End, I'll let you know what it's like live

Why is that sneaky?
Sounds like a great way to revive the dying singles chart, which these days is just a promo for an album.
