Manic Street Preachers - Last Christmas Lyrics






Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
The very next day
You gave it away

This year
To stop me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
The very next day
You gave it away

This year
To stop me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Once bitten but twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye

Tell me baby
Do you recognise me?
It's been a year
It doesn't surprise me

Happy Christmas
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying:
'I loved you, I meant it'

Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
The very next day
You gave it away

This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
The very next day
You gave it away

This year
To stop me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

    certainly a lot better than most covers, but not a patch on the original, not even fit to tie its shoelaces

  9. K.... R....

    one of the worst vocals I've heard in my life.

  19. J.... M....

    Great song, Unplugged ! Oh yes! :-)

  20. J.... p....

    Maybe not as good as the original but he does a damn good job of it just on his own with his accoustic. And then at the end you see a 2 second clip of him playing live with his band, with his white les paul, he plays guitar better than most, check out motrocycle emptiness and achives of pain and sings as well!!!

  21. C.... P....

    He's not in Michaels league as vocalist - he doesnt even attempt a lot of the higher notes

  22. �.... �....

    heeeee....ggggooooooooddddddddddddd

  32. S.... L....

    What the fuck, James. Sell out! Slammed!

    S.... L....

    Steffen Lerdrup-Nørager what the hell are you on about. he did a great acoustic cover of a classic 80s Christmas song when he was a guest on TFI in the mid 90s. they never released it as a single so how does it make him a sell out? complete tool

  33. E.... ....

    @plendor

    W0rd!! Severell wonderful Albums, a great Voice like Morissey and Songwriting Qualitys like no other Band

  34. 1.... ....

    that one person sucks. lol

  42. G.... H....

    Bradfield wies the floor with George Michael (no mean feat( in 4 minutes flat

  43. m.... ....

    @brack909 At Manics gigs, James would traditionally do a couple of acoustic tracks on his own mid-set. Often including covers, such as 'Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head' and 'Bright Eyes', and James has admitted in the past to being a Wham! fan

  44. b.... ....

    Christians should not be divided into divisions or denominations. The bible says that we should all speak the same thing.

  45. W.... G....

    cheers page 998 btw! cracked it lol :-D

  46. B.... ....

    Simply beautiful

  47. b.... ....

    Point of interest; during Chris Evans' ego (coke?)-fuelled years he insisted on any artistes who appeared on the popular and nationally-screened TFI Friday performing a song of his choice. Hence the proliferation of cover versions. I suspect that this version of the Wham! classic may be a case in point. Or do the Manics still cover it at gigs? Genuine question.

  48. W.... G....

    Could anyone possibly transcribe the chords to this for me, im a newb and cant do that kinda s*** yet.

    Cheers

  49. D.... A....

    James is so talented.
    And he's adorable <3

  50. A.... D....

    Yep, the most beautiful cover of the song)

  51. K.... K....

    My favorite cover this song...:) Bravo

  52. j.... ....

    You are correct... but george don't play the 6 string machine like JDB does he?

  53. s.... ....

  54. S.... ....
