QUOTE(Doctor Blind @ Dec 20 2017, 06:16 PM)  It could still yet make #1 next week (although unlikely, granted) as its streams will go through the roof this weekend. But downloads are likely to fall back to normal from Friday too! |

Did seem strange to publise the campaign this late in the week if earlier it could have had a better chance

The twitter campaign has been going all week about how to download various versions and stream for 30 seconds with the volume up - they still seem to think they have a chance even tho I have been tweeting them the reality!

You make that sound like everyone should just give up... even if Last Christmas is unlikely to be the Christmas #1 there's still the week after (which will be heavily boosted with Christmas streaming) to find a new peak or even just to re-peak. |

Lol I only tweeted them once but it was just frustrating me that they didn't know how things work. John Mortimer seems to be involved again - they guy who manned the RAGE campaign. Now that was a Christmas chart battle - must have been 50 pages on the ITunes thread that week - even my mates were talking about it!!

Wham at 1, 20, 49, 84, 98, 100, 110, 127, 173, 197, 205, 223, 349, 384, 466, 529, 567, 568, 642, 729 and 730.
21 versions in the top 800.  Surely in the lead now combined.

I suppose seeing as sales are fairly low for this time of year, all it takes is 50,000 or so people to suddenly support Wham! by downloading a copy for them to actually surge to the top this week. That could happen in one day if there's enough promo. It's not outside the realms of possibility.

Quite shocked Gwen is at 43 and Sia is nowhere in sight! How'd it get that high - just airplay?

Gwen has a TV special called You Make It Feel Like Christmas on Sky Arts. I'm not sure whether it's aired already or if Dec 23rd is its first showing, but it's currently viewable on Now TV. Maybe that's helping her song to some extent?
