It's a childish social media game that seems to have been running for years.

 

oh thank you!

Shout out to JLS’s cover of this on the X Factor!

Whamageddon - last person to hear Last Christmas in whatever group you’re playing with wins.

 

Whamageddon runs from December 1st to 24th.

I much prefer Mariah of the 2 but cool to see them both having a turn like in 2020. And peculiar that Mariah is always first out of the gates but Wham is overtaking her consistently now.

I think Mariah is more popular with regular streamers, but as we get closer to Christmas and more people start playing Christmas songs, Wham! overtake as they are more popular with the wider public. Same reason for Kelly stalling in mid-December as Andy Williams, Chris Rea etc. will surely overtake.

I assume Whamageddon is why Wham initially always starts off behind Mariah - at the start lots of people are trying to avoid listening to Wham because of the game!

Can we not do "Mariahgeddon" next year instead?

I actually don't think I can remember a colder December in the UK than the last few days!

 

2010 says hello!
