Sporcle Holiday Quizzes of the Week: Holiday Song Edition/Sporcle Contest Part 2

It's time for Week two of the Sporcle Quizzes of the Week! This week, we'll be focusing on the wonderful songs of the season that make the month of December a little cheerier.

1) SNL - Sing a Holiday Song (Picture Click)
As you probably already know, I love SNL. Naturally, I love this quiz. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten a chance to see all of these sketches, but I have thoroughly enjoyed the ones I've seen. I even named some on my list of the best SNL Christmas sketches. SNL's Christmas sketches are great, and their songs are, too. So obviously, this quiz was going to get picked for this week's edition.
My Score: 9/9

2) Christmas Carol Mix-Tape
While I prefer the more upbeat, catchy Christmas songs to the more traditional carols, this is still a very fun quiz, since it still captures the spirit of Christmas. I will admit that I had some trouble without knowing which carols were in question here, but that doesn't take any of the fun away!
My Score: 123/267

3) Breaking Holiday News!
This is such a creative quiz, and a fresh take on Christmas songs. It's not just another variation of the name the lyrics quizzes that, despite being a fan of, get a bit tiring after awhile. It even manages to add a bit of humor, which is really a great thing in a Sporcle quiz. It takes a bit of deductive reasoning, but once you get the hang of it it's easy as can be.
My Score: 20/20

4) 'Jingle Bell Rock' Lyrics
Who hasn't heard this classic Christmas song. You'd have to live under a (jingle bell) rock to have never heard it, and it certainly is a fun one. While there's many cover of this song, I've always been partial to the original version by Bobby Helms, though I can't deny that the Hall & Oates version is great too.
My Score: 86/118

5) Adam Sandler's Chanukah
Since today is Hanukkah, I couldn't NOT include this, right? This classic that originated during Sandler's time on SNL has received many versions, but the original will always be a true classic. It's such a great song for the Hanukkah season, and even though I'm not Jewish, I still love it so, so much. Now if you excuse me, I have to go out on my yarmulke, 'cause here comes Hanukkah!
My Score: 81/89
