FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - ShaneU - 23-11-2023

   

Let's find out what FOG's favourite Christmas song is! 

To enter simply pm me (up to) ten of your favourite Christmas songs including the artist numbered in order please.

They can be pop songs or traditional songs or carols. Your number one song scores twenty points! number two scores 9, number three scores 8 and so on. 

I'll do a countdown reveal of the songs nearer to Christmas. I won't include every song nominated due to the amount of different songs expected, I'll have to make a cut off somewhere.

Great idea Shane, have PMed my selections for you there Smile

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Leg End Reject - 23-11-2023

I'll get these in soon.

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Spears - 23-11-2023

I'll get some songs in over the weekend. I'll struggle rating them though 🙃

Oh nice

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Declan A Walsh - 24-11-2023

If I get a chance to think it about it properly, I will have some for you.

Are you allowed to plug the lesser known and/or lesser heard songs that you might want to nominate??

I don't know how I am going to keep it down to 10 nominations, and how to rank them. 
Edit: I just realised that I have 10 here, but I may not nominate all !of them yet!

Edit 2: I am up to 11 in the less played songs here, so definitely can't now anyway!

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Spears - 25-11-2023

@Declan A Walsh your songs are meant to be PM'd 🤶

I asked ShaneU if it was okay to promote lesser known/played songs and he said okay. I have not decided on my nominations yet and there is no guarantee that all 10 will come from that selection!

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Spears - 27-11-2023

@Declan A Walsh

My mistake, I thought they were your  nominations 🥴

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Declan A Walsh - 29-11-2023

Here is another less heard tune - Run Rudolph Run by Chuck Berry



RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Declan A Walsh - 01-12-2023

Some more less travelled examples!

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus -The Thrills


Grown Up Christmas List - David Foster and Natalie Cole (this version actually has backing vocals from David unlike the one normally played on Christmas FM)


RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Declan A Walsh - 12-12-2023

Little Saint Nick by The Beach Boys


RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - ShaneU - 13-12-2023

Doesn't look like this is going ahead. Only 6 entries and one of them was from boards! Declan clearly too busy spamming the thread to send his list in! pac And don't send in obscure songs or they won't make the final list!

@HildaSilvioOgden - great to see you back.



Sorry @ShaneU - I had to change my top10 and send another PM, because I completely forgot about one of my favourites!

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - nothing - 14-12-2023

I don't really like Christmas.

Some of it is okay but if someone said it's cancelled next year, I'd say grand 😁

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Leg End Reject - 16-12-2023

Quick question before I send mine in - are you all sending YouTube links 9r embedding videos, or will a list of songs do?

I sent in links (or maybe embedded videos).

Probably better so the host doesn't have to spend time looking them up themselves

I just did a list of songs and the artists name. Which probably annoyed Shane in hindsight. Oh well.😜

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - HildaSilvioOgden - 17-12-2023

I only sent a list. Tbh, mine are all the cheesy ones 😁

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Leg End Reject - 17-12-2023

I'll make life difficult for Shane too so. 🤣🤣

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Mam of 4 - 17-12-2023

List sent 📤

Links are beyond my capabilities 🤣🤣

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Declan A Walsh - 17-12-2023

Here is a newer one that I took a liking to in the last few years . I had forgotten about it this year until I heard it today on Christmas FM!

This is Christmas by The Goo Goo Dolls.


RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - Mam of 4 - 17-12-2023

Ooh Cher has a Christmas Song out too! Heard it on Strictly last night!

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - ShaneU - 17-12-2023

Links are not needed Smile

RE: FOG's Favourite Christmas Songs! - ShaneU - 18-12-2023

We're up to 12 entries including myself. Very close between the top 4 songs. 64 different songs chosen.
