    I give my vote to the Goo Goo Dolls. It's a nice song and it was my nomination after all!

    I have to say, though, that Sia's Underneath The Mistletoe is pretty good too. It's a bit ironic, given that I voted for her much more bland offering in the previous match!

    Out of curiosity, how come Sia's Under The Mistletoe was not in the playoffs first - it was only nominated by one person as far as I can see?

    So 24 songs avoided the playoffs. The 24 qualified on 2 things. Firstly was multiple noms. 19 songs qualified on that basis.

    The next 5 songs qualified based off chart positions. The higher the chart positions the higher the seed.

    Once Upon a Christmas Song gets my vote as it's just a better song, pure and simple. I hesitated about its nomination because I have heard it "over and over and over again", but I do like it! Proper Crimbo was okay when it first came out as a kind of novelty Bo Selecta thing, but as a tune it's a bit all over the place and the novelty factor has come and gone. Even it's creator (Leigh Francis, aka Avid Merrion, aka Keith Lemon) has moved on!

    Geraldine McQueen

    Hate both of them but Geraldine is slightly less bad so gets my vote
