Description: Here is my instrumental version of "Thank God It's Christmas" by Queen. I am playing it on my 50's Series Fender Stratocaster through my Korg AX3000G. I hope you like it. Dave p.s. I always recommend earphones; preferably earbuds, for a clear sound. Backing track found at the Karaoke Version site.. My channel ... youtube.com/OldGuitarMonkey My Website ... davidmonk.me.uk My Facebook page ... facebook.com/david.monk.79 The Song "Thank God It's Christmas" is a Christmas single by the British rock band Queen. It was written by lead guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor. Released on 26 November 1984, the single spent six weeks in the UK charts over Christmas 1984 and new year of 1985, and peaked at number 21. The song was not originally released on any Queen studio album, appearing only on Queen's Greatest Hits III, released in 1999, and as the B-side of the single "A Winter's Tale" from the 1995 album Made in Heaven. However, the track was finally included on the bonus EP packaged with the deluxe edition of their album The Works, remastered and re-released in 2011.
