Great that one more sleep made the top 30 in the end this year and kiss me at Christmas gets a new peak, it would be nice if that could make the top 75 next year.

Seems to have had the most impact in Germany out of the (mainland) European charts I have seen this year. For those interested, I have added the chart runs for Leona this year. Still a few European charts announced on Sunday, so will update after New Years if anything else pops up.
One More Sleep (chart weeks beginning 4th, 11th, 18th & 25th December) Austria: X - 74 - X - 68 (peak) Germany: 99 - X - X - 76 (new peak) Ireland: 66 - 69 - 55 - 40 (peak to date 19) Netherlands: X - X - 97 - 69 (peak to date - 58) Switzerland: X - X - X - 70 (peak to date - 54) Winter Wonderland has also re-entered the German chart this week at 63, out peaking OMS. It has also entered the Swiss charts for the first time at 94. Christmas, With Love (Always) charted in Germany for the first time this year. Germany: X - 93 - 82 - 28 (peak) No sign of Kiss Me, It's Christmas outside the UK that I can see. Hopefully that might change in time as well.

I prefer it when it comes out that celebrities have been silently working successfully for charities (and giving those charities exposure when they need it the most) it shows to me that they really care about the charities and it doesn't feel as forced like they're doing it as a PR stunt for their careers or whatever.(But also, she has a page on her website that lists all the charities she works with - I personally haven't seen that before for any artist? - and I believe they're just the charities she's working with right now) |

Glad to see OMS starting to gain traction in other markets, the more it grows in other countries the better playlist support it should get on Spotify which should then lead to more traction on other markets.

She definitely needs to promote more outside of the UK but more growth in Europe will help it climb the Spotify playlists which in turn will help it gain traction in other territories. |

Really? Wow it’s gone by so fast. Echoing how great it is that she’s been recognised for her fantastic contributions to the community. |

I think because people don't realise how long it has been since she's won X-factor is a factor of why they're surprised at her OBE. Plus she doesn't get a huge amount of media coverage anymore. Stories like "Leona does more charity work" aren't the kind most papers/media outlets are looking to report on!
