How much did Fairytale Of New York sell last year? I assume it's not in a position of potentially beating that this year.

~89.5k, so a couple of >20k weeks could push it close. :)

It is higher in the chart and sooner so iwould say it will get around 100k this year! :dance:

 

Thanks for this btw vids, i take it this is their sales from their time in the top 100 of the chart?

Ooh, The Pogues did overtake Mariah :D

Where did the (approx) 4,000 sales of 'Dominick The Donkey' come from? I mean the sales of the song on Sunday chart was about 92,700. And in the chart here was 96,800. :unsure:

It made the top 100 on iTunes for a bit before the Moyles campaign started.

Dominick the Donkey was available to buy before this week and it was hoovering around the top 200 sice the start of december as chris moyles plays it on his show every day.

 

Thanks for the Vidcapper, a great resource....will this week be the final update? I would say Mariah Carey, The Pogues Mistletoe and Lou Monte will be top 200 this week!!

Well, didn't see that (only seeing the fake versions of it. LOL), but I guess that makes sense now.

'Hoovering'? I guess that's why it cleaned up the novelty sales market... :w00t:

I wasn't planning another update, but since even the #200 is likely to shift 2k this week, so it might be worth doing. :unsure:

any official total figures sold for some of these perennials available, Vidcapper?....the ones shown on the TV rundown over Xmas on CH5 just didnt look correct to me?

Well, I know Fairytale Of NY passed 1m last week as Music Week specifically mentioned it, and we were given a total for Mariah a few weeks back, too.

 

Hang on, i'll look them up...

 

Mariah 839,883

Pogues 1,010,598
