Eartha Kitt -  Santa Baby
Wham - Last Christmas
Bing Crosby - It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas
Frank Sinatra - Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Declan A Walsh

Eartha Kitt - Santa Baby VS Darlene Love - Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) - Just shades it. They are both just alright.

Wham - Last Christmas VS Mud - Lonely This Christmas - Time for me to right the wrong I made by voting for what I thought was a completely different song by Elvis. Hate that song by Mud - pity Tiger Feet wasn't a Christmas tune! I can just about barely tolerate Wham's Last Christmas - got a bit tired of it!

Bing Crosby - It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas VS Bing Crosby - White Christmas - The better of the two - simple!

The Waitresses - Christmas Wrapping VS Frank Sinatra - Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas - Great alternative tune that gets quite a bit of airplay every year and in the supermarket too!

Stop the Calvery is like having a hot chocolate in city center on Christmas eve.
Slade is for being locked on Christmas night :pac:

Snow is falling all around us
Children playing, having fun
They sing together justice for poor Jona
Stop the Cavalry should have won!

You don't drink it. It just just stops everyone jostling in case they get covered in chocolate.

the hot chocolate would definitely end up all over me in that scenario!!

Declan A Walsh

Dean Martin - Let it Snow VS The Ronettes - Frosty The Snowman - Nice laidback groove.

Chris Rea - Driving Home for Christmas VS Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday - It actually grew on me to the point that I really liked it. Contrast that with the other which I initially liked and now I can't stand!

Bryan Adams - Christmas Time VS Peter J Wilhouski - Carol of the Bells - Lovely tune, simple as that.

Paul McCartney - Wonderful Christmastime VS Andy Williams - It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year - The better of the two. I am fed up of the first one.

Im dreaming of a white Christmas... hope..fully not in vain.. only necro can tell..

Bing Crosby - It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas 10 10 Bing Crosby - White Christmas


I like both, but not mad about either if I'm honest, so I went looking for reasons to help me out and the below swung me:

I'm probably in the minority but I have never liked 'White Christmas', I just find it really dull. The only use I can think for it is if you want something to put your hyperactive kids to sleep on Christmas Eve.

It's exactly what I play my kids on Christmas Eve to settle them down, don't really listen to it otherwise

So as a result of the other Bing number being *slightly* more upbeat, it gets my vote and advances

Bing Crosby - It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas 11 10 Bing Crosby - White Christmas

Omackeral

Match 12

The Ronettes - Frosty The Snowman. It's child-like and fun.

Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday. More upbeat.

Peter J Wilhouski - Carol of the Bells. My nomination and hauntingly epic.

Andy Williams - It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year. Major reason here is I fcuking hate Paul Mc Cartney
