Why do all these artists making Christmas albums have to announce they are releasing a Christmas album so early and also why is it released so early, what happened to December 1st?.

Higher sales really. If you're releasing on December 1st, you're realistically getting less than 25 days of sales.

Yeh Michael Bible releases his Christmas album on the 25/10 the year that came out and it’s important after last year to release your Christmas single at the same time now.

Why are you on the look out for Christmas albums Who?

in the US it's normal that Christmas albums are released earlier, Oct or Nov is normal and has always been, in the UK it's only a relatively recent thing

but cannot see Goo Goo Dolls doing well with a Xmas album, I'd rather they re-re-re-re-release Iris biggrin.gif

Sounds good! Looking forward to this album, I think the end of October is a reasonable time to listen to it laugh.gif

Finally got around to listening to this, enjoyed it much more than I expected overall! The cover of "Christmas Don't Be Late" was my favourite and a pleasant surprise to see an Alvin and the Chipmunks cover laugh.gif

A new Christmas song from them titled "Who's Gonna Hear Their Wish?" released today - their doesn't seem to be any sign of a new version of the album coming though.

I didn’t get a chance to listen to this last year - is it worth a spin?

I've not listened to it in full since 2020 now, but I remember it being decent! I added a couple of songs from it to my playlist.
