[Annie Lennox's] A Christmas Cornucopia is a collection of new, inspired interpretations of 11 traditional festive songs. On Lullay Lullay, Lennox draws direct links between the Nativity and the plight of Africa's child soldiers. "Lullay Lullay alludes to the killing of first-born boy children by King Herod, and going back more deeply into the story of the song, I kept getting images of child soldiers in my head. The violation of children is endemic in many so places."

Okay, who wants egg nog?
