It’s the holiday season, which means it’s time for Whamageddon!
The objective is to go as long as possible without hearing WHAM’s Christmas classic; “Last Christmas”.
Other rules:
The game starts on December 1st, and finishes at the end of December 24th.
Use your local time-zone, if you’d like.
Only the original version applies. Enjoy (or “enjoy”, if you prefer) the out of remixes and covers.
You’re out as soon as you recognize the song.
Post when you get knocked out. I’ll be curious to know if anyone can make it through the whole holiday season without hearing it (but somehow I think someone on here will manage… 'cause that’s what tends to happen here ).
Timely. I just heard this song last night (11/30) and then the damn thing was stuck in my head & I had trouble falling asleep, so (before midnight) I got of bed and watched a couple JSBach videos on youtube.
Unless it happens at one of the two get togethers I’m going to this month, one of which is not holiday purposed, I’ll probably make it through unscathed. Well, except for having it immediately pop into my head by reading this thread. I don’t drive to the office anymore, my spouse does the grocery shopping, and the kids are getting cash for Christmas, potentially via Zelle, since we’re not doing our traditional Christmas week at the beach.
The song is in my head now because I opened up this thread. UA is a jerk!
Not sure if it’s the song in general, or just the version that counts towards this game, but if you want to get out (and tear your ears out), check out the inspiration for this thread:
