    Bryan Adams - Christmas Time - both are good though
    Twisted Sister - Oh Come All Ye Faithful - I'll stick by mu nom, even though it will probably be demolished here
    The Ronettes - Sleigh Ride - just good fun
    Coldplay - Christmas Lights - I would probably have voted for any song in the other match ups instead of these two but the Coldplay song is slightly bettervthan Dolly

    James Brown: Santa Claus Go Straight To The Ghetto VS Bryan Adams - Christmas Time- I just love that tune - heard it every year on Christmas FM! Had not heard the James Brown one before - it's not bad at all.

    Frank Sinatra - Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas VS Twisted Sister - Oh Come All Ye Faithful - The better of the two.

    The Ronettes - Sleigh Ride VS Bob Dylan - It Must Be Santa - Great Phil Spector production.

    Coldplay - Christmas Lights VS Dolly Parton - Hard Candy Christmas - Good tune. Was nearly tempted to vote for the other on first listening.

    James Brown: Santa Claus Go Straight To The Ghetto- Tis the season to get down :cool:
    Frank Sinatra - Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
    Bob Dylan - It Must Be Santa - Bob should do more off the wall stuff like this. Reminds me of his Band era output.

    I am discovering some great songs I never knew existed. Xmas songs don't usually get released on studio albums I suppose.

    Queen - Thank God It's Christmas

    Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah ; not a xmas song, but feck it I don't care, and I'm contradicting myself from the East 17 vote, but don't want to be consistent in my voting anyway

    Greg Lake - I Believe in Father Christmas ; would take either of these over anything else left in the tournament, I think

    The Beach Boys -  Little Saint Nick

    Bing Crosby - White Christmas VS Queen - Thank God It's Christmas - Could have gone either way.

    Thurl Ravenscroft- You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch VS Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah - Great vocal performance but is it really about Christmas (ask Leonard Cohen)? Had not heard the first one before - interesting.

    Aled Jones - Walking in the Air VS Greg lake - I Believe in Father Christmas - Difficult one as I like both. I will plump for the latter because of its clever lyrics, good guitarwork and that classical bit.

    Bing Crosby and David Bowie - Peace on Earth VS The Beach Boys - Little Saint Nick - I like both but this one is special.
