We've teamed up with Domino and Warp Records to offer you 24 days of audio advent treats, from festive playlists to exclusive downloads. Which has to be better than a square of Kinnerton chocolate, right? To kick things off Robert Wyatt picks his 10 favourite pop songs. And dresses up as Santa. Here's what he had to say:
For me the magic of pop records arrived via jukeboxes in cafes. The music could fill the awkward silences among us clumsy and/or shy adolescents. I realised that pop records have to be short, and that anybody who thinks it must be easy to pack an instantly effective and memorable couple of minutes of music on to a record should try it themselves. I got my missus to help me out with two or three suggestions. Not saying which ones, though – maybe you can guess? Or maybe not."
