Whamageddon (Last) Christmas

Certainly I've heard that people clipping anything muppet-related, e.g. for reaction videos, tend to get copyright claimed particularly aggressively.

The Whamageddon is starting to make me nervous. Do I lose the game if I pause Last Christmas before the lyrics kick in? If I run screaming at the first few notes?

Yes.

It's perfect! LMFAO! This is one time I would make an exception for AI use. Could be the viral success of Christmas 2025.

• Covers don't count.

So logic clearly dictates that if you think you're hearing the song, you might as well listen some more just in case it turns out to be a cover, like this version by Ukrainian band No Apology:
