Flex's Ultimate 25 Days of Christmas (Songs) World Cup: NOMINATIONS AND QUALIFIERS

[Sparky]

I was going to avoid this because I know it will somehow devolve into Slade or Greg Lake winning despite being far from the best or even great.

But in the spirit of something here I go.

I'd second the vote for Joey Ramone "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" or we could always go with some Replacements "Bundle Up"! I mean with a line like "Not a creature was stirrin' 'cause they all was drunk" how can you go wrong? Just says Christmas cheer.

Remember folks, no limit to seconding nominations, but the songs need 'em! By my count, Heston, Low Down Low and motorsmell's offerings need to be seconded still. And, of course, the more song nominations the better so don't be shy.

I second all nominations that haven't been seconded so far.

Also, my nominations:
Still war die Nacht - Marlene Dietrich
Fairytale of New York- The Pogues

Don't think the German song will get past the group stage though. Been there before.

Great picks. A heavy hitter and a compelling cover of a heavy hitter. I'll second these nominations.

[Low Down Low]

If someone was of a mind to nominate Tom Waits version of Silent Night, i would be a very willing seconder

Santa Claus go Straight to the Ghetto - James Brown

[revbob]

Father Christmas by the Kinks

[Dr. Medulla]

I'll back revbob Waldorf's suggestions here.

[WestwayKid]

Little Saint Nick!

[Flex]

I'll heartily second the beach boys nomination! For folks who may have just submitted one song so far, you can do up to two! And anyone who wants to offer up some selections, you can still do so for the rest of the day!

The selections are starting to shape up quite nicely, this will be fun.

[JennyB]

[Heston]

Seconded!

[Sparky]

I'm in for the Waitresses "Christmas Wrapping" as well as the Beach Boys "Little Saint Nick", both are on my iPod "Christmas Tunes" playlist.

MY all-time favorite Christmas song by the Fab Four. A Must-have.


One Christmas Catalogue by Captain Sensible, another of my all-time faves. Another must-have if anyone asks me.
