GTPlanet vs. Wham - Thread of the Year!

[Silver Wing]

Welp, I'm off for the night, and surprisingly haven't been whammed yet. Pandora's helping me to survive... so far.

Don't trust Pandora.

 

[Epic B]

Welp, I'm off for the night, and surprisingly haven't been whammed yet. Pandora's helping me to survive... so far.

Remember, once you open up Pandora's box, you can't close it. Or that's how I think it goes. Regardless, you'll probably get Whammed at some point.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

Be sure to tell if you have been Whamdora'd.

 

[Arixant]

CLOSE CALL Thought I was whammed while watching a friend play DDR, it ended up being a weird Japanese cover sorta thing, but had nothing to do with Last Christmas, just totally sounded like it.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

Who DDRs in front of Last Christmas?!

It'd be so slow and easy!

It wasn't last christmas, it was this track. It really sounds like it though

 

[DK]

Wait...there's an album of Christmas music called "Silent Hill"? What the 🤬?

 

[axletramp]

That's not snow... it's ash!

 

[Jimlaad43]

I suppose this should be posted. (For those wondering, yes it is safe )

• Only the original audio counts. Remixes such as Whamnam Style (yes, that's a thing) or covers like the ones by Taylor Swift or Glee do not.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

Should i decide to embrace 'creativity' or look for a box of ear bleach?

Ear bleach. Without a doubt.

 

[RACECAR]

Had a close call today, Thought I was whammed until I found out it was a cover. Whew that was close but good grief, the person that did the vocals sounded too much like the original artist

 

[Pezzarinho17]

Are there any other commercials / adverts to be aware of? I know about the 'NOW Christmas' advert of death, opening with a whamming. I'm going about this by not telling people what I'm doing, through fear of a vicious attack to the senses. The only issue with the plan is that there are a lot of adverts on TV these days and I can't just leave our flat everytime they are on...

Guessing it was Silent Hi-

Yup.

I hate that song.

Wait...there's an album of Christmas music called "Silent Hill"? What the 🤬?

IDK, it kind of fits for a Christmas song to Konami at least. It's only because they made the game Silent Hill as well as DDR, although I have no idea why they would name a Christmas song after a horror video game...

 

[Pluxtheduck]

@Daniel, I'm not on the list for this punishing purgatory of christmas jingle dodging

 

[Doodle]

A Wham song came on the radio on the way home from school today. Thankfully it wasn't the correct song

 

[Kurei]

Anyone remember my "off-tone Michael Jackson" comparison ?, Well I heard MJ, but not off-tone, in fact he was singing "Beat it" quite well...

I'm going to have to start pushing my luck, driving home to radio stations playing Xmas music will be the norm after Thanksgiving.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

I just had a heart attack moment. I heard Christmas music on the radio and thought that my mom was listening to the radio, but thankfully, it's a CD. A CD that doesn't have Last Christmas on it.

 

[TB]

thankfully, it's a CD. A CD that doesn't have Last Christmas on it.

Doesn't matter. Burn it. You can thank me later.

 

[FoolKiller]

Doesn't matter. Burn it. You can thank me later.

Just because it is playing before Friday is no reason to get that drastic.

 

[Driving Park]

Played with fire today.

I went into a Five Below today with my brother. We were in there for a solid half an hour and Christmas music was playing. Santa Baby, All I Want for Christmas is You, etc. all played. I was very nervous, but luckily Wham! never played.

I survive to fight another day.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

Doesn't matter. Burn it. You can thank me later.

I'm probably going to get whammed tomorrow regardless so it wouldn't really matter if I gathered up all the Christmas CDs and used them for target practice.

 

[Aesthetics]

I was at an IHOP for breakfast today, and christmas music was playing.
Thankfully "Last Christmas" wasn't one of them.

 

[TB]

Just because it is playing before Friday is no reason to get that drastic.

One can never be too careful.

 

[GT5Power]

Whamnam Style gave me a headache.

 

[Ken]

Nervous. I've got to get a battery for the truck today. What if the service station is playing Christmas music. Eek.

As badly as I want to be victorious in this challenge, I've been doing that alot of late. What with the season, my household, and a good proportion of GTP after me.

I for one want to see you win, especially since everyone is after you.

Thank you.
