Because it's almost Christmas... here's ten Carols.
No Carolines though, there's a whole other Top Ten in them.
10. Tom Lehrer - A Christmas Carol
Getting us all in the Christmas spirit... kind of.
On Christmas Day you can't get sore,9. The Polyphonic Spree - Carol of the Bells
Your fellow man you must adore,
There's time to rob him all the more
The other three hundred and sixty-four.
Or, if you prefer a slightly less cynical Christmas Carol... (well, it's also mercifully short).
8. Nadeah - Scary Carol
In which Nadeah gets kidnapped by a green polar bear. Things get weirder from there.
7. Chuck Berry - Carol
Can't beat a bit of Chuck. Great guitar on this song.
6. Modesty Blaise - Carol Mountain
80s indie band who the internet appears to know very little about. Shame: this is a jaunty little number.
5. Morrissey - When I Last Spoke To Carol
Morrissey goes Mariachi. Again. And growls like a tiger. Don't ask me.
4. Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Don't Kill It, Carol
This Carol doesn't have exactly green fingers. Oy! Carol! Leave that rose alone!
3. Jeff Buckley - Corpus Christi Carol
It's easy to forget just what a cracking album Grace was. Then you listen to something like this again and... woah, momma.
2. Neil Sedaka - Oh Carol
It's a classic, but it might not have made it so high on this countdown if it wasn't for the talky bit.
I'm always a sucker for talky bits: the more earnest, the better.
Written for Carole King, back when she and Neil worked together in the Brill Building.
1. Flight of the Conchords - Carol Brown
One of their very best. Lyrics so good... proves they're more than just a comedy band.
Shut up, girlfriends from the past!
Those were my favourite Carols... which one is your Vorderman?
