The Cliff Christmas Comp
So what is this? Well it's the Cliff Christmas Comp aka The Cliff Richard Christmas Song Paordy Competition.
The Rules:
Simple, wrte and submit a parody to a Cliff Richard Christmas song (must be an Xmas song) a list of which can be found here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cliff_Richard#Christmas_songs
Anyone can enter, all entries must be your own work and have been submitted on AmIRight. You have ten days, so all entries must be submitted by the end of 14/12/06. Voting then is from 15/12/06 until 24/12/06 with the winner being announced (if any of us are sad enough to come on here at Xmas)
Scoring will be similar to ABC/SOTM/Decathlon, vote for Top 5 and the person with the must points wins (obviously).
Go now and write your masterpieces.

Um....does anyone know ANY Cliff Richard songs, let alone Christmas ones? :\'((I only know "It's So Funny We Don't Talk Anymore")
Josh, you gotta aim for a song, genre or artist that's well-known to MANY people (particularly United States citizens) to get a real good competition going.

There's "Drivel, ho and whine" (or possibly "Mistletoe and Wine") - possibly the worst Christmas song ever recorded...

I agree, good idea...... but...... I don't know any either, and judging by the site you provided, there's only 6 that we can choose from
