Despite being made without record company help, My Favourite Time of Year has spanned the globe and is being performed by countless schools, colleges, choirs and orchestras around the world - even the United States Army band! It receives regular TV broadcasts across Europe and is touching hearts regardless of religion and nationality. \r
\r
After trying to gain record company support, Leigh decided to make it happen himself by gathering together his musician friends and writing, producing and singing this Christmas song. The video was filmed at the fantastic Blists Hill Victorian Town at Ironbridge in Shropshire. It features the skills of top director Nick Bartleet and Cinematographer John Perez (known for his work on Coldplays Viva La Vida, Beyoncé and many other productions). You can help spread some Christmas magic by spreading the word - thanks for your support and best wishes for 2015!\r

My Favourite Time of Year\r
Words & music by Leigh Haggerwood \r
\r
Verse 1\r
\r
Lanterns lighting up the town,\r
Peace on earth is all around,\r
Everything is calm on Christmas Eve.\r
Theres goodwill in the air tonight,\r
Angels sing by candle light,\r
Their voices carried on the wind.\r
When carol singers gather round,\r
When I hear that festive sound,\r
I wanna join with them and sing!\r
\r
Chorus\r
\r
They sing a merry song and we all sing along,\r
A festive melody that tells us Christmas time is here.\r
See the stars tonight; theyre shining bright,\r
Cause its Christmas time and its my favourite time of year.\r
\r
Verse 2\r
\r
Deck the halls with boughs of holly,\r
Give me mistletoe; its the season to be jolly,\r
Wrapping presents, writing cards, helping decorate the tree,\r
But theres one thing that makes it all for me.\r
When carol singers gather round,\r
Angel voices fill the town,\r
Its like the world is joining in!\r
(Noel, Noel, Noel)\r
\r
Chorus\r
\r
They sing a merry song and we all sing along,\r
A festive melody that tells us Christmas time is here.\r
See the stars tonight; theyre shining bright,\r
Cause its Christmas time and its my favourite time of year.\r
\r
Middle 8\r
\r
Christmas Eve,\r
Still believe,\r
So excited,\r
Cant sleep,\r
When the morning comes,\r
Church bells ring,\r
And hes been!\r
\r
Chorus\r
\r
They sing a merry song and we all sing along,\r
A festive melody that tells us Christmas time is here.\r
See the stars tonight; theyre shining bright,\r
Cause its Christmas time and its my favourite time of year.\r
And its my favourite time of year\r
(Noel, Noel)\r
