Remember that the XF only have 5 days to sell though!

I am here for an original, Christmas X Factor winning song tbh. It's quite a clever move tbh, coz if it's any good, it'll be downloaded and streamed for years to come!

Only on release week, not Christmas number 1 week

I think people are being too quick to write X Factor off. Last year's winning song was dreadful and people weren't that invested in Louisa - she only won because the producers slayed all her rivals.

Matt Terry with an Ed Sheeran song would be the one to beat.

I'd be amazed if there's an official David Bowie release. I guess somebody might start a campaign to get an old song there, but very little chance of it succeeding. Same goes for Leonard Cohen.

There is a campaign to get '2 Become 1' to Christmas No.1:

LOL as if that'll do anything. I think people are bored with these 'let's get xxx to Christmas number one' campaigns now anyway, so it'll just be charity causes and X Factor singles in the running.

I might support this one. The girls have had such a hard time of it.

I wouldn't mind James Corden getting it. It's an original Christmas song; when's the last time an original Christmas track was Christmas #1? It's for charity, too.

I'd much rather James Corden than the usual X Factor / charity. Let's have something different for once!

James Corden will be fine as something different. An original Christmas song is much better than one of those horrendous choir or ensemble charity singles that butchers a pop song and isn't even christmassy. I just don't get those, nobody wants the actual song so why not just give money to the charity if you want to support the cause? laugh.gif I also don't get the hate for Corden although I do have a weird crush on him so maybe that's why tongue.gif

I won't mind XF getting it if it's original, that's something different if it has to be them or a charity choir. As long as it's not bloody 5am puke.gif

I don't think the X Factor winner will be Christmas no 1. It may well be no 1 on iTunes, but streaming will slow it down hugely. I think it will probably be Black Beetle.

Will Stormzy really release a song to challenge?! Would have to be a new one if so...

To be honest Stormzy only tried last year to stop Louisa Johnson from getting it. That's why he celebrated being ahead of her as if he actually got the Christmas number one.

I thought Ed Sheeran was writing an original xmas track for the X Factor winners track unsure.gif

And its only got 4 days of sales for the week, plus a couple of hours, the final results are on a Sunday.

Any odds for Christmas No.1 album anywhere?
