With those votes closed and tallied, we have our final battles selected. But before we get to that, a word about the holiday known as Christmas Beve. No, it isn't Christmas Beav, and a beaver isn't the holiday's mascot as cute as that may be, but people will celebrate their own way. Perhaps the Beve Beaver is something akin to Dominik the Italian Christmas Donkey. I digress. The word Beve is a portmanteau of Before and Eve. More importantly though, it is the name of the holiday's patron saint - St. Beef. Or, as read in the old Molvanian, Beve. To truly celebrate St. Beef's day or "Christmas Beve" as it is sometimes known, the main goal is to air out your grievances or "beefs" before the Christmas holiday so it can be celebrated with full joy. This is similar to the more modern day Festivus, but without the festivus pole or feats of strength. Other traditions have included kind pranks known as "kodden prinken", the traditional roast beef meal (often served as a sandwich) and early small Christmas gifts.

Peace on Earth/LDB continued a dominating march to the finals, but who will Bing and Bowie face down in the race to first place? None other than Nat King Cole and his Christmas Song. No Bing-off final this year. That means the 3rd/4th place decider will be Underneath the Tree versus White Christmas - Bing Crosby.
What will be the final order? Which song will come out on top as truly the best of all the best Christmas songs out there? The votes will be up to you with voting scheduled to end Christmas night and reported the next day. Make it count!
Fun Fact: The Flag of Molvania is known as the Trikolor, though it only includes the colors red and yellow.
