this deserved higher than the bottom 5 but I'm not surprised considering people tank Christmas songs just because they are Christmas songs.
This will forever remain one of my favorite vocal performances from Martina, she sounds amazing on this. I will say when I heard her sing this song acapella live back in 2004 I was stunned. It was a performance I wish I could hear live again (sadly that will never happen).

I don’t like “O Holy Night” as a song so easy choice for my #50.

"O Holy Night" is one of my favorite Christmas songs in general, because it is such a dynamic song. It's one of those songs that people don't dare sing unless they have an epic arrangement and a voice to pull it off, so the renditions are consistently great, compared to some other Christmas songs that can be hit-or-miss depending on the arrangement and who sings them. That being said, Martina's version of "O Holy Night" is far and away one of the best. Celine's is pretty much right on par with hers, and Mariah's is of course great for its own reasons, but literally no other version has ever come close for me. And since I hear Martina's version all over the place during the holiday season moreso than anyone else's, I tend to think of hers as the quintessential version of this song. It's her "Independence Day" of Christmas music. Meaning, it is the song that is going to keep people familiar with her voice, whether they know who she is or not, long after her career is over! Plus, being in the audience when she sings this live a cappella is one of the most goosebump-inducing things you could ever experience...

I have a friend who is an animator who LOVES Ratatouille but I've never cared for it tbh, not sure why. It was good, don't get me wrong, but I just never wanted to see it again. While with most others I always end up watching them again. I could go on and on about movies lol

Pixar slays SOOOO much I'm not sure how well a movie rankdown would work though, because who wants to watch like 15 movies to participate in a rankdown... 'Cause I feel like the majority of people won't have seen EVERY Pixar movie, or at least seen all of them recently enough to remember them well enough to rank them fairly...

I should've been there, in the back of your mind. I shouldn't be asking myself why. You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet. You should've said no, baby, and you might still have me.

I thought Should've Said No would do a lot better. It's a great song and was a moment in the Bad Blood mash up at the reputation STADIUM tour.

I didn't participate but what the hell to "Humble and Kind" not even making the Top 40. That is shocking.
