5 rounds. 120 songs. One winner. A lot of strong opinions I am absolutely going to share.

Okay so I didn't fully expect revleitner to run away with this one, but here we are. 76 points, 1 round win, and a lead that was frankly uncomfortable to watch if you were jsexe. Good? Great. Moving on. A 5-point margin sealed the result.
The song that lives in my head from this whole league is "Frosty The Snowman" by Cocteau Twins, Robin Guthrie, Elizabeth Fraser, Simon Raymonde. sgigs submitted that. 13 points. It hit. I don't know what else to say. Sometimes a song choice is just correct and that was one of them.
"Love that Earth Wind and Fire is represented but Philip Bailey and his distinct falsetto gets his own mention"
jsexe on Easy Lover by Philip Bailey, Phil Collins · Carrie's Theme - Can You Take Me Higher
The rounds themselves were a whole journey. "Eric's Theme - Touch Grass" was the opener and jsexe took it with "Find The River" — "Carrie's Theme - Can You Take Me Higher" went to Carrie with "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" by Michael Jackson (10 pts). And for "Norma's Theme - Christmas Without Carey" went to sgigs with "Frosty The Snowman" by Cocteau Twins, Robin Guthrie, Elizabeth Fraser, Simon Raymonde (13 pts). There were some genuinely bold picks this league and I respect that even when I disagreed.
Movement in the rankings saw revleitner climbed 3 spots and jsexe climbed 3 spots.
Genre-wise, christmas dominated, with hip hop close behind. Nostalgia for the 1990s ran deep throughout.
Anyway. revleitner is your League 22 champion. revleitner (76), jsexe (71), athenia1013 (70). League 23 is going to be different. It always is and it never is. See you there.
