So Christmas is over. And if you spent it wondering what the answers were for the challenge then apologies. As one of 10’s of thousands of people who had 48 hours with no power and no phone signal until Christmas Day evening, I couldn’t get the answers out.

But I hope you all had a fantastic day, and now I can put you out of your misery.

The 10 worst Christmas songs ever are…

Christmas In Blobbyland
OK, the easy one. Everyone got this. I couldn’t find the lyrics anywhere online so I listened to it over and over on Youtube writing down the lyrics as it played. A horrible way to spend an afternoon.

All I want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth
Another easy one.

Mistletoe and Wine
We’re spoilt for choice with Cliff Richard songs, but I limited myself to one to stay on the right side of my wife’s mum – the world’s biggest Cliff fan. (She’s never forgiven me missing Cliff sing on a rainy day at Wimbledon when, instead of being in my Centre Court seats, I was in the bar.)

Feed the World / Do They Know It’s Christmas?
How can a fundraiser hate the song that changed the way music can raise money? One, it kept Wham! (Last Christmas) off the number one spot. Two, I just don’t like it!

White Christmas
A classic, but I’ve heard it too many times. And what’s with the whistling in the middle?

All I Want for Christmas Is You
Last year I put this in my top 10 songs as, although it’s sung by Mariah Carey, it’s a great pop song. This year it’s in my worst 10 as, although it’s a great pop song, it’s sung by Mariah Carey! Harsh, but true.

Peace On Earth / Little Drummer Boy
This also made my favourite 10 last year. As I put my worst 10 list together a few weeks ago, I decided I didn’t like it. And a few weeks later I think I do. I can’t make up my mind, but well done on everyone getting it right!

Walking in the Air
The Snowman. It’s beautiful, but I’m afraid I just never really got it.

Do You Hear What I Hear?
The tricky one. My teenage daughter, with the help of Google, was the only person to get this right.

Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree
Mel Smith was a fantastic comedian, and sadly died too young this year. I’m sorry to say this wasn’t his finest hour. Another charity record (Comic Relief) record condemned! Funky pie, anyone?

Actually, in researching this list I discovered many truly dreadful songs that I’d never even heard of before: John Denver with the wise words, “Please Daddy (Don’t get drunk this Christmas)”; Elmo and Patsy singing “Granny Got Run Over by a Reindeer” and other contributions by The Cheeky Girls, Crazy Frog and Alvin and the Chipmunks. They almost make Mr Blobby sound OK.

Thank you so much for everyone who entered, and for all the comments and fun that was had. A donation for £200 is on its way to Sofii.

And massive congratulations to everyone who got 8 out of 10 as you had the highest scores (except my daughter who spent far too long on it and cheated, so is disqualified!) The first to be selected at random from these people was Duncan Batty, Head of Fundraising & Development at Sheffield Hospitals Charity who now has £50 to give to the charity of his choice.

Well done Duncan!

So that’s it for another year. But don’t worry, I’m already thinking of something fiendish for Christmas 2014!
