10th December 2017
It's Sufjan Stevens at 1, getting his first chart-topper at long last over a decade since debuting (and me buying his Illinois album). I was listening to this gorgeous low-key classy ballad as I drove in London traffic heading home with snow gently falling. How very Christmassy! Almost Driving Home For Christmas (Hi Chris Rea yet again in my top 40), except for I'm flying to the Canaries tomorrow morning. An actual new Christmas song pops in for Gwen Stefani, helped by Blake Shelton, and a good jolly effort it is, giving Gwen 20 years of chart entries, no doubt about it! Another Xmas classic returns 44 years on - Wizzard's annual festive hit doesn't usually chart due to over-familiarity. I was insanely mad on it in 1973, had the picture sleeve vinyl and Roy Wood was coming off 4 consecutive number ones in my chart, plus some pre-fating Wizzard, as was my teen hero aged 15/16. I got to see him in Basingstoke on Tuesday, probably 20 years on since I last saw. He can still put on a good show, even if he needs a hand with the song order these days. I've used that as an excuse to allow a quirky track that played as I walked into The Anvil venue, one off Boulders his first album that I played rather a lot. Highest new entry, though, is another RPO classic combo, this time Aretha Franklin gets the treatment with her brilliant Stevie Wonder cover from 1974 - it very much underperformed in my charts in the January/February as Wizzard dropped down my charts from the top. Roy Wood knocked himself off the top, with solo hit song Forever, that never gets played these days - not even by Roy in concert. Big climbs for Tame Impala, back in the top 10, and ditto Fall Out Boy. Finally, a debut for Ian Dury's boy, so, Reasons To Be Cheerful there. 1 3 1 6 MYSTERY OF LOVE Sufjan Stevens 612000 2 2 1 3 HOW CAN I BE SURE David Cassidy 400000 3 1 2 6 AMEN The Fizz 625000 4 7 4 6 TIMEBOMBS HURRICANES Written By Wolves 281900 5 6 5 4 PHASES Alma & French Montana 152400 6 NEW 6 1 UNTIL YOU COME BACK TO ME (THAT’S WHAT I’M GONNA DO) Aretha Franklin with The Royal Philaharmonic Orchestra 55000 7 20 7 4 HOLD ME TIGHT OR DON’T Fall Out Boy 98400 8 15 8 4 GOLDEN SLUMBERS The Beatles 116000 9 45 9 3 LIST OF PEOPLE (TO TRY AND FORGET) Tame Impala 63200 10 8 8 5 THE CALLING TheFatRat featuring Laura Brehm 193500 11 5 5 3 I’M A CLOWN David Cassidy 139000 12 12 12 14 DO IT AGAIN Steely Dan 272500 13 9 1 9 I LOVE YOU BUT I’M LOST Tears For Fears 615500 14 11 1 15 CRYBABY Paloma Faith 984000 15 10 10 4 COLA CamelPhat & Elderbrook 97400 16 19 16 4 ONLY YOU (2017 VERSION) Yazoo 84000 17 16 3 9 BETWEEN TWO ISLANDS Pet Shop Boys 417000 18 21 18 4 BLUE ANGEL Roy Orbison & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra 77450 19 27 17 6 ANYWHERE Rita Ora 113900 20 17 3 11 READY TO GO Hurts 551000 21 4 4 18 BOTH SIDES NOW Glen Campbell 410750 22 23 22 3 I KNOW YOU Craig David featuring Bastille 45150 23 14 1 11 WAIT UP Hurts 731250 24 13 1 4 MAID OF ORLEANS (THE WALTZ JOAN OF ARC) Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark 281000 25 28 25 3 I CAN FEEL YOUR HEARTBEAT The Partridge Family featuring David Cassidy & Shirley Jones 54450 26 26 15 5 COMIN’ UP Tungevaag & Raaban featuring Victor Crone 108500 27 25 18 7 ULTRA LOVE Marlon Roudette 144150 28 29 28 4 GUILTY Paloma Faith 58600 29 30 29 2 FUGITIVE (RICHARD X EXTENDED MIX) Pet Shop Boys 36200 30 18 1 14 MY KINGDOM (WILLIAM BLACK REMIX) Evangeline 878650 31 31 7 7 IMMIGRANT SONG Led Zeppelin 232800 32 22 1 11 MAGNIFICENT Hurts 852300 33 33 17 6 YOU WERE RIGHT RUFUS 116050 34 NEW 34 1 YOU MAKE IT FEEL LIKE CHRISTMAS Gwen Stefani featuring Blake Shelton 17600 35 24 24 5 GO BANG PNAU 77600 36 37 36 5 (DON’T FEAR) THE REAPER Blue Oyster Cult 73200 37 75 37 2 DRIVING HOME FOR CHRISTMAS Chris Rea 22300 38 34 34 4 GOLDEN SLUMBERS Elbow 58600 39 42 34 8 ROBOT MAN Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark 114450 40 40 40 5 I MISS YOU Clean Bandit featuring Julia Michaels 52200 41 41 10 9 SEXY NORTHERNER Pet Shop Boys 214750 42 38 1 14 FOOTSTEPS Pet Shop Boys 901150 43 36 4 10 GO 2.0 Burak Yeter & Ryan Rybak 327600 44 60 44 2 FIND YOU Nick Jonas 23250 45 35 35 4 WAY TO GO (GOMEZ & TRITTER REMIX) Empire Of The Sun 60000 46 39 39 5 SILENCE Marshmello featuring Khalid 57950 47 48 47 3 GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY U2 36050 48 50 48 3 COULD IT BE FOREVER David Cassidy 45300 49 44 6 17 GET LOW Zedd & Liam Payne 441500 50 43 12 14 LIFE WITH THE MACBETHS Sparks 244350 51 32 25 9 OH, PRETTY WOMAN Roy Orbison & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra 141750 52 46 8 12 BEST FRIEND Sofi Tukker featuring NERVO, The Knocks & Alisa Ueno 308700 53 53 53 5 GALAXY Dannii Minogue 44600 54 51 22 7 COMIC LIFE Matt Maltese 110100 55 55 1 23 DREAMS Grace Slick 688300 56 56 30 9 EVERYTHING IS NEVER ENOUGH (VIDEO MIX) Goldfrapp 120900 57 54 31 6 DRIVEWAY culpriit 86900 58 NEW 58 1 LAST CHRISTMAS Wham! 10200 59 65 59 3 DAYDREAMER David Cassidy 22100 60 49 49 7 HOW LONG Charlie Puth 66400 61 57 3 14 CLOSER TO HEAVEN Pet Shop Boys 454450 62 70 62 3 BANDALA The Partridge Family featuring David Cassidy & Shirley Jones 19200 63 74 63 2 SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN The Crystals 12400 64 59 16 7 HOLY MOUNTAIN Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds 113500 65 62 29 8 A DIFFERENT CORNER George Michael 103550 66 66 1 24 TWO FUX Adam Lambert 1091900 67 67 1 39 ALONE AGAIN OR Love 1004550 68 63 1 22 TRUE FEELING Galantis 987550 69 69 14 15 ALL STARS Martin Solveig featuring Alma 240550 70 64 10 17 WHAT ABOUT US P!nk 308400 71 NEW 71 1 MISS CLARKE AND THE COMPUTER Roy Wood 5800 72 72 72 4 XANADU (LIVE AT WEMBLEY) Jeff Lynne’s ELO 22200 73 RE 39 4 RISING COST OF LOVE Elkie Brooks 47000 74 NEW 74 1 MIAMI (PARROT AND COCKER TOO MIX) Baxter Dury 5200 75 NEW 75 1 I WISH IT COULD BE CHRISTMAS EVERYDAY Wizzard 5000 DROP OUTS 47 20 8 LOVE HURTS Roy Orbison & The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra 142900 52 52 4 LET YOU DOWN NF 32700 58 50 3 FIELDS OF GOLD Katie Melua 33000 61 29 4 ELECTRICITY Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark 57000 68 19 10 BEAUTIFUL TRAUMA P!nk 149000 71 10 13 THE PUNISHMENT OF LUXURY Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark 202950 73 3 17 DRINK UP Train 648900 |
