    I was trying to be discreet :P

    I like both those songs, so this is one tie you can't possibly mess up on Necs :P

    Incredibly close matches one and all. Two matches decided by a single vote.

    We also have a tie which I will resolve momentarily.... Let the canvassing commence :P

    Dean's version of Let it Snow is easy on the ear and is pleasant background music as you run around the house trying to get everything for Christmas.

    I canvass Dean Martin because his voice is wonderful and who hasn't wanted to be snowed in with a loved one.
    (Also if you had counted my 3 votes for Jona Lewie instead of one Slade would be gone)

    Dean Martin - Let it Snow 11 11 Slade - Merry Christmas Everybody


    This is very difficult as I like both songs a lot to be honest. I think though variety is going to win out for me here and Dean is the last crooner standing, I'm going to give him a chance in the semi finals.

    Dean Martin - Let it Snow 12 11 Slade - Merry Christmas Everybody

    Semi Finals coming up in ten mins or so...

    Who wants background music? We aren't listening to these songs waiting in a lift! Slade rocks!

    I don't really mind but i would like a traditional one in the final mix


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,789 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    Kathleen celebrates by streaking topless through house.

    I said earlier in the thread that Slade was a song for being locked on Xmas night, but its also that kinda song you wanna hear in your last hour or two of work before you finish up for the Christmas holidays. Puts you right in the spirit of things :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    The Pogues and Kirsty McCall - Fairytale of New York ; I despise that Wizzard song

    Wham! - Last Christmas ; for Zaph


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,372 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday. Just to make a bit of a competition of it.
    Dean Martin - Let it Snow. Wtf, where did Slade go???? Anyway, despite that crime against humanity, this is still better than that Wham crap.

    It is not officially Christmas-time until the first time Ronan Collins plays it.

    Semi1 : Wizzard
    Semi2 : WHAM !

    Can you break that down sloooowly please



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,177 ✭✭✭Gru


    Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday VS The Pogues and Kirsty McCall - Fairytale of New York - Fairytale has been overdone to death lately!
    Wham - Last Christmas VS Dean Martin - Let it Snow i like both but Deano let it snow is the better song...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,666 ✭✭✭Mehaffey1


    Dipping into this thread very late on, did The Flying Pickets make an appearance?

    My votes for semi finals go to

    The Pogues
    Wham


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,045 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    I wonder if I sing some of the Wham song will it confuse Necro like what happened with omackeral in the cartoon thread. Then Wham will get an extra vote - just for Zaph !

    Can you break that down sloooowly please



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday - Memories of singing along to this at the xmas discos :cool: Great times :)
    Dean Martin - Let it Snow- Deano had a great voice, he could drink Macgowan under the table too.

    Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday. Because I hate the other one and it's just so predictable that it would be here.

    Dean Martin - Let it Snow. My only nomination left standing. It's very smooth and I've gotten a new appreciation for it. Glad it's made the Final Four.
