    Where's the caramel in that Aero bar? I don't see any!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Worst final two ever. We should stop letting boardsies decide things, because most of you are f**king terrible at it.

    It’s karma for all your sh*tty gifs.

    Hey I love LeVar's gifs! If I knew how to post them we'd be annoying together. We'd basically be the Jedwrds of gifs. & quote you each time mwhahaha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,034 ✭✭✭Ficheall


    I forgot about this until just now. So proud of you guys.



    Wizzard and Let it Snow are both great, but I think Let it Snow clinches it for being listenable to at any time - have to be in a certain mood for Wizzard..

    It's written on the packet. It smells and tastes delicious.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    Dean Martin let it snow.

    Not as sexy a voice as Michael Bublé but he looks better and he still sounds good

    My vote goes to Dean Martin and Let It Snow. A feelgood relaxing Christmas tune with a wonderfully laid-back crooner. I heard it tonight on Christmas FM. Luckily, I did not hear I Wish It Could be Chris Rhea - sorry - Christmas Everyday!

    Some nominations that should have gone further: Driving Home for Christmas by Chris Rhea, Santa Claus is Coming to Town by Bruce Springsteen, Do They Know It's Christmas by Band Aid, Christmas Time by Bryan Adams and, of course, Bing Crosby and David Bowie's duet.

    Some of the ones that got away (even if I did not submit any nominations!): My Grown-Up Christmas List by Natalie Cole and David Foster, Run Rudolph Run by Chuck Berry, A Merry Jingle by The Greedies and something by Lady Antebellum.

    I'm actually quite pleased with this Final Two, makes up somewhat for the consistently terrible decisions made in the 2010's thread.

    Anyway I'm gonna vote for Wizzard. Because it's joyful and energetic, and it is more Christmassy than 'Let It Snow' which can apply to any cold-weather occasion.

    Even the naughty Grinch turns out be a good boy in the end LeVar, there is hope for you yet. You just need some cheermeister in your life

    That's me voting Let It Snow too

    Seriously Wizzard, pıss off and think about what you're saying. Christmas... every single day...?? Every day? Every day with your family, no shops open, hardly any pubs, no sport on the tele, no gigs, no summer, no bin collections, we'd just live amongst our rising detritus watching endless loops of sentimental slush on TV with Lily Allen doing an acoustic cover of some old shıte song until the sweet release of death. Feck off

    I'm late to this tournament, am I doing it right?

    Would be fitting for Forum Gamers to vote a non Christmas song to win a greatest Christmas song contest like they did for a non Christmas movie to win a greatest Christmas movie contest.

    Ironically, said song is played at the end of said movie

    Oh it would certainly be fitting. In the US/Canadian State and Provincial Flag Tournament, neither a state nor a province won. In the Subdivisions of Western Europe Flag Tournament, the winner hailed from the West coast of Africa.

    Italians in the best song from a black person contest- and they wanted to allow Barry Manilow or some twerp like that into it.
    Male singers with small amount of female backing vocalists in the best female song contest.
    Songs from the early 00s and 2020 in the best song of the 2010s contest.
    The list goes on...

    Whoever it was that started pushing the Caramel Aero like mad, Sinead I think, I hope you are happy with your stipend from Nestle for product placement :P
    I've got it in my head now and I want to find out what it tastes like.
    A few posters have succumbed to the temptation already.

    Israel is not in Europe but is a member of the European Broadcasting Union who run the competition. Israel also take part in European Championships and Israeli teams take part in UEFA Champions League.
