A Song For Xmas (ASFXMAS) 2021! - AVATAR REVEAL TODAY

How liberal were people with interpreting the theme last year and did they get punished for it? I’m not sure if I want to be too literal this time.
 
I have about 20 potential entries from last year but none are screaming WINNER and I’m in desperate need of a HIT.

Oh! :D I don’t think a theme has ever been as strictly followed as that! Only Tarkan stands out.
 
All but one song in the top 10 fit the Christmas theme, which came 3rd and The Fizz were loosely linked. All but two of the bottom 10 are Christmas songs. So in short Christmas songs did better and worse!
 
I like to think I came 1st and 7th having originally entered with Dragonette. I love the Primitives song equally though.

Party theme. Hmm…I guess party pooper could tie in. I’ll have a think about fun ones and miserable ones.

It's not strictly a party theme, just an option for those who don't wanna do Christmas. Interpret as you wish!
 
Four entries all uploaded to the spreadsheet.

I haven't run this in a year, I forgot how FUN IS WAS!
 
I don't have a ready made entry for this. The one I wanted to put in has a very shite video so I'm a bit put off it by that.
 
I remember the last contest very well… :(

HELP ME MOOPY

Should i send song A, that everyone will hate, or song B, that everyone will also hate, but it's a bit longer.
Song C, the longest song you can find
 
I also need help

Song A which is very Christmassy, a few of you will know it already, most of the rest will HATE it
Song B which is lovely but has a VERY TENUOUS Christmas link
Song C which is just party and not Christmas at all
Song D which is nothing because I’m going to struggle to find the time to listen and vote anyway

Is having to be on spotify a dealbreaker? I have found a few options that are sadly youtube only :(
 
I don’t know if I should send a winter mood piece or just send something that might get played at a Christmas party but also at midsummer chillout.

I mean if you're really insistent on Spotify I'm not gonna kick up a stink, but as you know it won't benefit you!
