    I don’t particularly know either of them to be honest but Robbie Williams is nicer on first listen

    I'm going to vote for Gary Barlow's song, find it incredible catchy and a bit more livelier than Sara's Winter Song, not to mention Gary Barlow's one is an actual Christmas tune.

    Winter Song leads 3-1

    2 songs I actually don't have any liking for at all... but Loughc makes a point with GB's actually being a christmas song, so he gets the vote here.

    One needed to secure it to the next round, or 4 needed for Gary's ultimate comeback :pac:

    Robbie for me too, and I'm alway humming the Status Quo song, I just feel Robbie Williams really captured the mood of a nation with his song.

    3-2 to the Quo

    I imagine it'll be like a Time Capsule, a memory of Christmas at that date and time.

    Band Aid and John Lennon's songs have aged well enough even though their purpose have moved on to other things now.

    Robbie was unavailable for comment but sources close to the star said he was gutted at the rollercoaster nature of his defeat. But the Quo are legends...

    Not the first time that's happened unfortunately. Means some weaker songs are progressing at the expense of stronger ones, but that's the luck of the draw.
