2011 Swedish House Mafia vs. Knife Party - Antidote
2012 Ellie Goulding - Figure 8
2013 Lorde - No Better

Pretty great Xmas #1s IMHO ~ According to my earlier post in this thread N-Dubz' 'Playing With Fire' was #1 for Xmas 2009 but I don't know if I even had a chart at Xmas 2010 and if so I wouldn't know what was #1 for it, because I didn't actually put the date on the charts in my archives prior to July 2011.

2010 - Rihanna feat. Drake "What's My Name"
2011 - Little Mix "Cannonball"
2012 - £1 Fish Man "One Pound Fish"
2013 - Arty, Matisse & Sadko "RIOT"

A shock Christmas #1 for me in the form of 'RIOT'. Hopefully it actually has a decent chart run unlike 'Cannonball' and 'One Pound Fish' which fell very fast after the new year.

2011 | Light Me Up - Lauren Evans
2012 | I Knew You Were Trouble - Taylor Swift
2013 | Timber - Pitbull ft. Ke$ha
2014 | The Heart Wants What It Wants - Selena Gomez

A different act each year and every year the XMas #1 became bigger.
2011 went gold, 2012 went platinum and 2013 went double platinum.
I don't expect Selena to exceed Timber but it's looking like another huge Xmas #1

Foals are the first act to have 2 Christmas number 1s. biggrin.gif

#1 / #2

2000 Eminem featuring Dido "Stan" / Rui Da Silva ft. Cassandra "Touch Me"
2001 Kosheen "Catch" / Daniel Bedingfield "Gotta Get Thru This"
2002 Coldplay "The Scientist" / Liam Lynch "United States Of Whatever"
2003 Mew "She Came Home For Christmas" / Outkast "Hey Ya!"
2004 The Go! Team "Ladyflash" / Kylie Minogue "I Believe In You"
2005 Sigur Rós "Hoppípolla" / The Pogues ft. Kirsty MacColl "Fairytale Of New York [2005]"
2006 I Was a Cub Scout "Pink Squares" / Damien Rice "9 Crimes"
2007 Foals "Balloons" / Amy Winehouse "Love Is A Losing Game"
2008 Ladyhawke "My Delirium" / The Asteroids Galaxy Tour "Around The Bend"
2009 The Drums "I Felt Stupid" / Lady GaGa "Bad Romance"
2010 Crystal Castles ft. Robert Smith "Not In Love" / Kanye West "Runaway"
2011 Charli XCX "Nuclear Seasons" / Jamie N Commons "The Preacher"
2012 Foals "Inhaler" / Laura Mvula "She"
2013 Arcade Fire "Afterlife" / Blood Orange "You're Not Good Enough"



2014 LUH. "Unites" / Shamir "On The Regular"

Not much competition really this year - a song by a band called 'Lost Under Heaven' seems quite apt for a festive chart topper IMO. Last year was a 4-way battle which Arcade Fire managed to narrowly win and take the new #1 and spend a month there.

2011 Swedish House Mafia vs. Knife Party - Antidote
2012 Ellie Goulding - Figure 8
2013 Lorde - No Better
2014 Taylor Swift - Blank Space

Three years in a row a female solo artist has claimed my Xmas #1! Quite surprising as female solo #1s are usually relatively rare in my chart (although having said that I had a fair few of them this year, from Beyoncé, Ella Henderson, Katy Perry, Kiesza, Lorde, Sia, Taylor Swift, Tinashe and Tove Lo).

2009: Lady Gaga- Bad Romance
2010: Matt Cardle- When We Collide
2011: Little Mix- Cannonball
2012: Shontelle- Impossible
2013: Idina Menzel- Let It Go
2014: Olly Murs Ft Demi Lovato- Up

So Olly becomes the first male vocalist to top the charts since Matt Cardle and this is the first collab to have a Christmas #1 for a long time. In the end there was only 200 copies between this and blank space. Also the 2012 #1 was Shontelle and not Taylor, I knew you were trouble started its 9 weeks at #1 on the final week of December and not Christmas #1 week.

Albums
2013: Frozen- Various Artists
2014: Taylor Swift- 1989

2015 Grimes “Flesh Without Blood” / David Bowie “Blackstar”

As we all know the PROPER Christmas #1 chart should be the one dated 20th December - so here is mine for this year. Bowie was close but it seemed only fair to give it to Grimes this year as 2015 has been her year for me - NINTH week on top (5 for “REALiTi” in April/May) - as with 3 of the past 4 Christmas #1s she doesn't look likely to hold into the 'dead week' otherwise known as the last chart of the year.
