#whamaggedon — Public Fediverse posts

Sadly, last night I fell victim to #Whamaggedon, thanks to our pub quiz night. I almost escaped, as the general noise level covered it, but then the quiz master pointed it out and I was a goner. 😭

Jimmy Eat World did a cover a whole 22 years ago. I'm not sure there's anything else to say here.

Oooooohh. Just heard this one for the first time and it's immediately one of the best in a bad bunch. Decent acapella and a good bunch of liberties taken with the original tune and arrangement. Voxcom Acapella released this last year.

There are a surprising number of "lullaby" versions. 별하나 동요 translates as "One star nursery rhyme", and they released this cover 6 years ago.

I'm overdue with today's #Whamacea post - The Anti #Whamaggedon #Whamvent Dec 6th, Track #1
And we're overdue a gospel version, I think. This one from 2014 is by N.S.G. Big Band.

Do you like the "Hardstyle" genre of music? It's kinda like Happy Hardcore without the "Happy". This track - by POSEIDON, ZYZZMODE and Tazzy - is for you then.

Playing #Whamaggedon but want to hear versions of Last Christmas that won't knock you out?
I have a playlist of 240+ versions of Last Christmas. I'll post highlights and lowlights from this list over 25 days. A Whamvent calendar, if you will.
Let's start with a new, half-decent cover version from Smash Mouth and Sophie Grey.
