    Me too, actually! I would have definitely thought she would have been in the final.

    She must be gutted. :D

    I'll try reaching out to her on social media and see how's she's holding up...

    I vote for The Darkness, cos it's a good song, and the Kelly Clarkson song is one that I don't rightly recollect.

    I vote for The Darkness, as it’s the only Christmas ‘classic’ out of songs listed here!

    Yes I didn't get a chance but Ladies and Gentlemen our voted favourite Christmas song of the 2000's is;


    Kelly Clarkson - Under the Tree.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xy34BYxXsw


    I've added the lyric version of the video so we can all have a big singalong!!

    When are people going to learn, democracy just doesn't work! :)

    Would have liked to see The Darkness win but the people have spoken.

    just want to say fair play to Loughc for running this, it was a great bit of craic the last while.

    Some time for some stats and facts on our tournament;

    To not much surprise;

    Our finalists were ranked in the seeding number 1 & number 2 respectively.

    The darkness almost got knocked out in the first round by FAITH HILL, they made it through 5-4 but at one stage Faith Hill was leading.

    The most votes Kelly Clarkson received against her was in the semi-Final at 4 votes.

    She took out, Britney Spears, Christina Perry, Taylor Swift & Gwen Stefani to get to the final now that's some list of opponents.

    Our last playoff song Winter Song made it to the Quarter Finals and was only 2 votes away from reaching the semis.

    Like any of these knock out tournaments, the luck of the draw & who was online at any one time will have swayed it a certain way & whilst I'm not a fan of the winning song I always thought it was one of the bookies favourites so to speak.

    This one still wont be going anywhere near my Christmas playlist though ;)

    Next up 1980-1999 :D

    We demand a THIRD PLACE PLAYOFF!

    Bring on the Quo with the guitars and blue jeans and Gwen Stefani in that slinky dress.

    She has a lovely dress there too. :D

    I can't remember the last time I wore something that wasn't work clothes, ratty jeans or pyjamas, hence the dress envy. :pac:

    At least you’re wearing work clothes.

    At the moment I alternate between tracksuits, lounge wear and jeans.

    Jeans is for when I have visitors which so far this year hasn’t be allowed :D
