But yeah the song is cute but I'm not rushing to listen to it in mid November.

Realistically, what are the chances of her doing Radio and TV performances for this song?

TV she could have:

- Strictly Come Dancing
- Jonathan Ross
- Loose Women
- Good Morning Britain (do they still do performances?)
- Graham Norton (probably never for a solo spice ah)

And I am sure there will be plenty of Christmas specials she could perform at, no?

It's a sweet enough song simple and inoffensive. However her voice sounds utterly dreadful on the verses, why on earth is she singing in that low register also is she singing down her nose?

Listening to Santa Baby now, her voice sounds much more pleasant on this one suits her a lot more.

I think it'll depend on if they really plan to push this track or not.

If it's just released to promote her Albert Hall gig, then I assume any sort of extensive tv or radio promotion is out. With it being released under BMG I guess there's a chance they'll do more with it though.

Would be wonderful if they could get a few of these slots! Strictly has some complete random performances so she could possibly get a slot on there if BMG were willing to pay out for it. Can't see any solo Spice getting a Graham Norton slot ever again though tbh... cry.gif (shame as he is so much better than Ross)

I think she is more likely to go on shows and have a sit down chat as promo.

It’s a very sweet song, but yeah I don’t feel like overplaying it right now. I’m sure come December I’ll give it a lot more time though. I really hope it’ll be added to some festive playlists!

I think it's sweet and suits her voice really well. Time will tell how replayable it is.

Agreed. Emma's voice sounds beautiful throughout. Flawless.

Yes. I listen to them a lot atm.

I don't even listen to AIWFC, December is the only month Christmas music is played for me... I did give both of these one listen though. Think I'll be replacing Kylie's version of Santa Baby with Emma's as I prefer her voice. I don't really like Emma's vocals on the verses in the original song though she sounds weird.

Interestingly Santa Baby is proving ever so slightly more popular on Spotify than Coming Home for Christmas:

10,376 streams - Santa Baby
9,253 streams - Coming Home for Christmas

I don't think it's that shocking since Santa Baby is a well-known song to begin with.

At the end of the day, it'll all depend on if Coming Home For Christmas can get on some good Christmas playlists and get proper radio play.

I noticed she was promoting the Albert Hall gig with Santa baby on social media today. I guess both will get a push and the label will hope one or the other gets playlisting or radio play.

Here's hoping she will do a bit more promo than this, cos the tickets are not really selling dry.gif

Today:

12,046 - Santa Baby (+1,670)
10,459 - Coming Home for Christmas (+1,206)

Eek, such low numbers currently. Let's pray these actually get some playlist treatment at some point...

I just cant listen to Christmas music in November, I'll give it some streams in December.

I'm guessing the budget gone into both songs amounts to cheap studio time and that's about it. Neither songs will get a video or anymore money spent on them so I guess they arent looking at losing money on them. On the off chance one takes off or gets good playlisting then bonus.
