ASFXMAS 2022 - Semi Final 1

[ButterTart]

Tag yourself I'm Krampus

 

[RS]

Not sexy at all. Just noisy

 

[dmlaw]

We have this song in EVERY round of ASFM.

Yes, we have a dozen or so songs by interchangable female pop singers every time, but the rock entry is the one that we see too much of.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

We have this song in EVERY round of ASFM.

They normally do alright if they fall on the right side of NONSENSE.

 

[ButterTart]

Oh lord Jesus, a key change!

 

[OutSynk]

This is so much fun for Central Europe.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Lovely PIPES

 

[RS]

Oh dear, Barry Manilow!

 

[COB]

Gaping and gasping after that!

 

[dmlaw]

Song 9 - Lana Del Rey Delighted By Christmas Mirth

Barry Manilow - Christmas Is Just Around the Corner

 

[ButterTart]

Well that was a MOMENT.

 

[win_the_game]

This semi just keeps on getting better.

 

[Kala]

WHAT THE FUCK

 

[RS]

Gaping and gasping after that!

Show gape please

 

[COB]

Oh what the fuck.

 

[ButterTart]

The juxtaposition of Krampus and Barry Manilow

 

[OutSynk]

Lana del Rey sounds different.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

It's a fabulously warped ASFXMAS this year!

 

[dmlaw]

I wasn't expecting that Barry Manilow would be someone who would get a repeat ASFM entry.

 

[RS]

Well it’s certainly better than the Buttertart song before it

 

[ButterTart]

Didn't we have Miss Manilow last year as well?

 

[Kala]

For some reason I thought Barry Manilow was DEAD

 

[COB]

I wasn't expecting that Barry Manilow would be someone who would get a repeat ASFM entry.

I was

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Well it’s certainly better than the Buttertart song before it

 

[COB]

BREAKING OUT THE EMERGENCY QUAVERS

 

[dmlaw]

Song 10 - No gift again, Colleen?

The Gods of Love - I Love Christmas Time

 

[ButterTart]

For some reason I thought Barry Manilow was DEAD

A common misconception since he's been having himself progressively embalmed since about 1974.

 

[Kala]

BREAKING OUT THE EMERGENCY QUAVERS

Ooh I do love a QUAVER

 

[Cerro de Casa]

BREAKING OUT THE EMERGENCY QUAVERS

It's times like these I ACHE for Zu

 

[ButterTart]

Oh wow and yes please.

 

[dmlaw]

I will note that four successive two and a half minute songs when I don't really know how long anything is until they end is making this a bit fraught.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Oh and yes of course we DO need a Quavers - What DO YOU THINK thread.

 

[RS]

This is a short semi, yes?

 

[COB]

Sam Ryder really is everywhere this year!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I'm not 100% sure if this is parody or an actual Christian act.

 

[ButterTart]

I love that they couldn't decide between Santa and Jesus so just dressed as both.

 

[Kala]

This REALLY sounds like something else. I can’t place it.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

This is a short semi, yes?

Well you would know.

Ba-DUM-Bum!

 

[RS]

Because I’m trying my best but I’m losing patience

 

[dmlaw]

This is a short semi, yes?

16 songs, so we're more than halfway through.
