Shane MacGowan will be joining The Priests as they attempt to claim the Christmas top spot
The single 'Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth' will be released December 12 on Epic Records.
This unexpected collaboration covers the massive 1977 Christmas classic by David Bowie and Bill Crosby.
Speaking about working with The Priests, MacGowan said: ''The Priests are very talented singers and the track sounds good and hopefully people like it. We changed some of the lyrics from the original and we like it the way it is.''
MacGowan will be performing throughout December on The Pogues Farewell Tour.
