    The Ravenoettes is a better song, but just doesn't hit me as Chrismassy.

    So voting for Robbie Williams.

    Robbie Williams - time for change

    First to 5.

    Well, I have to say that I was all set to vote for The Ravenottes until I listened to Robbie Williams' song and I have to admit his song is the better of the two. It's a very pleasant, almost nostalgic, tune.

    Robbie Williams

    Was surprised to see he released it for Christmas 2019 as I have no recollection of hearing it that Christmas, and first heard it in 2020 on Christmas FM, I tend to like Robbie Williams anyway but thought this was Robbie at his nostalgic, melodic best... this was downloaded and added to my playlist pretty early after Christmas FM launched.

    Also, I'm the exact same, DvB- no recollection of that song in 2019. :confused:

    Strangely this is the Robbie song I remember from Christmas 2020, Can't Stop Christmas Time... which hasn't aged well :(

    I was only aware of that one as I mentioned liking 'time for change' to my Mrs she thought I meant that one 'cant stop christmas' which she wasn't overly keen on, so we you-tubed it & i copped I had heard it on Christmas FM in the background when working, remember thinking at the time it was odd Robbie having 2 singles out at the same time for Christmas, hence checking back to see when they were released & discovering time for change was a year old.

    And Robbie take the win.

    I do recollect this song from Robbie William in 2019 as it's from his Christmas Album in 2019 which he re-released in 2020 with the new song Can't Stop Christmas.

    The Christmas album is decent, a mix of covers with originals.

    This is still a great shout. Been loving listening to it all season.

    Shout out for other new Christmas music which holds up over the years Sia - Santa’s coming for us, John Legend - Bring me love and Robbie Williams new Christmas album.

    From the ChristmasFM thread from last year, I did say I was a fan of it :P

    I plump for The Darkness. It's cheesy but entertaining! Plus puts it at 4-4!

    I’m going to kick the voting off myself with Hudson Taylor as I feel it’s more of a Christmas song and the artist are Irish.

    Agree, but Christmas FM almost ruined it for me, Christmas 2019 they played it to death. More than any other song I ever remember them playing across a season... I was so sick of it at the time. Hearing it less in 2020 I appreciated it more, so they get my vote in this one.
