On to round 2 then, and it’s got a different feel to it. Maybe, Christmas shouldn’t be about charts. Maybe you’re a traditionalist. Maybe there’s nothing that warms those festive cockles quite like a good ole festive carol. Yes, it’s a round of carols!

 

Obviously, with 28 songs, this selection is far from exhaustive, but here’s the thing: anyone who eliminates a carol between now and 23:59 GMT on Wed 4 Dec, you have an opportunity to sub in another carol of your choice, to enter the game immediately with 12 points. Of course, you can always opt not to if you can’t think of one, but it’s not often you get to have a say on what songs enter the game, and my definition of ‘carol’ will be rather loosey goosey (as long as it’s Christmassy and you can reasonably imagine a santa-hatted amateur choir blasting it out).

 

The carols are credited to the person who made the song the well-known version as we know it, so could be the writer, composer, singer or even translator. I did have a set of links prepared for the songs, which’ll go in spoilers on the OP the moment I’m in front of my laptop (where posts on here are actually editable).

 

5 of these make the final. No enforced kill quota (for now), but for this whole round, everyone has Christmas bonus scoring (+6 and -9). Let’s GOOOOOOO!

As per this, @Commtech Sio Bibble can either pass or decide upon a new carol to throw in at any point between now and the end of tomorrow.

 

anyway…

Decided to sub in the first missing 'carol' that I could think of, it was either that or something from The Muppet Christmas Carol.

[Toast 16,170]

Not voting again, just adding my favourite carol.  A nice bouncy tune and a rousing chorus.
