Aw, I like A Lonely Jew On Christmas and I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas.
EDIT: And 12 Pains of Christmas would have been my #1, because it's a fucking great song.

That final go 'round where none of them are even singing their verses anymore, just having nervous breakdowns, is the best. "Fine! You're so smart? YOU rig up the lights!"

#1 with no #1 rankings, and it's not even a Christmas song. #F**keryWasAfootThatYear :sip2: lmao i haven't even been paying attention to the stats today, I should have noticed that. This is the one time the median-as-primary-ranking doesn't feel accurate. By average and standard deviation, Grandma is clearly the definitive #1

(I kind of love "Grandma", even if I feel like I should hate it, too, so I'm not really complaining about it actually winning. Besides, reverse the top two and I even get a P-P-P-P-PERFECT RANKING out of it. EVERYBODY WINS!)

Haven't been paying much attention, but seriously how does a song with no #1 rankings and one that's about what Kyle is religiously won? #fuckerywasafootthatyear

Cynthia and Az are the real MVPs. Another one of my least favorite Christmas songs bites the dust.
(I guess someguy can join the party, too.)

Seems like 11 and 10 is 13 and 12 and vice versa.

In retrospect I have no idea why I included that song on the list. Almost all the vids for it were mislabeled as being a Bob Carlisle song, and it is really and truly a terrible piece of shlock, which is really saying something coming from me b/c I love damn near anything Christmas. On a somewhat similar note I also have no idea why I specified the Holly Cole Trio version of Christmas Blues for this rankdown instead of the Dean Martin original. Ah, well.

Seems like 11 and 10 is 13 and 12 and vice versa. These rankdowns are determined by median first, then average if a tiebreaker is needed. For the most part I think that has worked out okay so far, but the Novelty Christmas #1 is a notable exception.

I am such an idiot. Because I got lazy and never put together the playlists for all the songs, I didn't realize that the only version available on YT is a 22 minute studio rehearsal outtake (why that of all the unauthorized Prince things is online I don't know). Now I don't know how many of you ranked based on that or on the finished 5-minute song, which is on Spotify.
I wouldn't be at all surprised if bboat was ranking based on that YT video, and we know how he feels about song length lol

The rehearsal version would have been my 14 if I wasn't aware that the finished version existed. It still would have been above "Christmas Shoes". :kii:

2-3-4 all go out in one fell swoop, but at least I got one P-P-P-P-PERFECT RANKING out of it. 1 vs. 9 I know what song I'm rooting for, but let's see if it can take out the juggernaut opposing it. (Yes, that was purposefully vague. Though, if you've seen one of my Christmas charts on Crownnote (or you are Cynthia), you know which is which. )

Last Xmas pulls out the win! But it was a close one, as they tied on average score and #1 ranks. Interestingly enough Wham's lowest scores fall below Kelly's, but the #2 and #5 ranks gave it the edge in the end.

Hooray!
Also, wow, they're tied. Point totals for both songs are 107, and, of course, the average is the same (as you pointed out above, lol). If I did the tie breaker my way, with the highest ranking being three #1s each, the two #2s for "Last Christmas" would have broken the tie.
