And a new meaning to the phrase...er...Christmas Baubles! (..oh, er, Missus!...)
Was there some newer JAM resings in there compared with your classic Sky Radio, or perhaps maybe alts/mixes?
Video stuff excellent too - actually very pro!

Most of the JAM personal cuts featured date back several years; the classic Sky Radio Christmas TOTH cut (aka JAM Sky #167) is from 2009. This was my first festive jingle and still one of my all-time favoutites!
A new JAM Personal Cut for Christmas this year is “Cleansweep” cut 9 which was sung last month (the “It’s Christmastime with Hodgey” one). The jingle features in full at 0:31 and again in part acappella form at 1:09. This was also originally a custom cut for Sky Radio in 1995.

Yeah, another of my all-time favourites; I had that wonderful Christmas cut re-sung back in 2018, but reusing the “Merry, Merry Christmas” solo from the original Cross FM cut as I couldn’t better the original lyric (plus thanks to Jon, it saved me paying for the additional solo!)
The original Cross FM (Japan) version (JAM Cr/8) is much nicer than what ended up in the “Ready Mix!” demo for Mix 105 as cut 16, which is why I think the Cross FM version was demoed in the “Holiday JAM” cut by cut section on the JAM website: https://www.jingles.com/jam/radioids/HolidayJam.php?category=6
Sadly, the “Holiday JAM” page of the site isn’t currently indexed and hasn’t been updated since Flash Player became unsupported last year.
