She took to her social media accounts this week to offer fans an overlooked holiday gem by the Pretenders in a post with what looks like a typed letter pasted on top of the cover art for the project.
“Hi Everyone! I imagine by now you’re getting pretty tired of hearing Christmas songs in shops. They seem to be reminders of things we’d rather forget for the most part, and they just keep on coming,” she wrote.
“Well, here’s a Christmas song that you may have never heard and you won’t hear it on the radio. We recorded it some years ago with the Duke Quartet on strings, Adam Seymour on guitar, produced by Stephen Street, and written and sung by Yours Truly. I can’t remember what year it was. Enjoy! XCH.”

“A masterpiece, through and through. In a world of musical repetition, this song's unique perspective is a refreshing twist. Thank you ? ❤️,” one fan posted on Instagram.
“Brings a tear to the eyes, another lonely Christmas but this song is sweet ?,” added another.
Back in October, Hynde released Duets Special, which features her teaming up with various artists, including k.d. lang, the late Mark Lanegan, Brandon Flowers of the Killers and others on versions of classics like “Me & Mrs. Jones,” “Can’t’ Help Falling in Love,” “I’m Not in Love” and more. The album made Classic Rock magazine albums of the year list.
