^^^ @marc Yes, don't forget to check the spreadsheet above so that we don't repeat songs already sent previous years! :) Love the Christmas feeling of this thread already, by the way! xlove

Mid-Atlantic States is in! xcheer

No worries about the spreadsheet Anna, I sent a copy to Marc this afternoon

@Gera11 @esc87fan I don't know who is in charge of the spreadsheet, but there's at least one mistake. My entry from 2013 with Tommy Körberg & Sissel Kyrkjebø is called "Låt Julen Förkunna".

But I think another column should be added with the English title of the songs, if there are such. Låt Julen Förkunna is actually the Swedish version of Happy X-Mas (War is Over), which is why that song was sent yet again some years later because people didn't know it was the same just from the title. My entry from 2016 "Oi, Joulujan Ihmiset" is the Finnish version of The Wexford Carol. In 2015 an Icelandic version of Oh Holy Night was sent, and so on. I'm sure there are others.

The 2012-2017 data is coming from an older spreadsheet I found in a Christmas thread, I think from 2018 when Robert hosted. I'm gonna add the English translation tomorrow xup

Fun fact, the languages of our Christmas songs:
103 🇬🇧 English
8 🇪🇸 Spanish
8 🇸🇪 Swedish
7 🇷🇴 Romanian
5 🇭🇷 Croatian
5 🇱🇻 Latvian
4 🇬🇷 Greek
4 🇮🇸 Icelandic
3 🇳🇴 Norwegian
3 🇩🇪 German
3 🇷🇺 Russian
2 🇳🇱 Dutch
2 🇫🇮 Finnish
1 🇸🇦 Arabic
1 🇪🇪 Estonian

I'm surprised there hasn't been any Italian songs so far and that French is doing so poorly, they have so many carols. xthink

Most of our carols are actually just covers from foreign songs, maybe that's why.
But you pushed me to check the list of Christmas songs written by French and I found the perfect cover of the most popular one :sneaky:
I didn't want to participate but who knows, I might now :lol:

Nice! :) A couple more mistakes I found: The Sissel entry from 2015 (Bereden Väg För Herran) is in Swedish and not Norwegian. And Loreena McKennitt's name is misspelled.

I actually had two different ideas (the one I submitted and another that I absolutely love) for this year's special, but the one I ended up sending felt right to me
