December 25, 201114 yr Author Sales are out for the #1, I know we usually have a no spoilers policy but it's a bit different when it's already been announced an hour ago so if you want to see them they're on the BBC news website within the main article of the most read story. Absolutely amazing opening week but nevertheless, judging by them, I think On The Floor is safe in the EOY top ten :cheer:
December 25, 201114 yr How about concatenating the "weeks top xx" bits so it looks something like 6 weeks top 40; 9 weeks top 75; 12 weeks top 100

December 25, 201114 yr How about concatenating the "weeks top xx" bits so it looks something like 6 weeks top 40; 9 weeks top 75; 12 weeks top 100 Alright, I'll do that ^_^ Probably is a good idea to include top 75 weeks since quite a lot of people don't consider 76-100 to be official.
December 25, 201114 yr My retro comments; 2010; 02. (2) Rihanna feat Drake - What's My Name 05. (5) Ellie Goulding - Your Song 06. (7) Rihanna - Only Girl (In The World) 07. (6) Take That - The Flood 08. (12) Katy Perry - Firework 10. (11) Far East Movement feat Cataracs & Dev - Like A G6 2006; 01. (-) Leona Lewis - A Moment Like This Adore this, still my favourite X Factor winner's single, Leona's voice amazed me 02. (1) Take That - Patience 04. (50) Girls Aloud - I Think We're Alone Now Huge climb, ah 2006, as with every GA release I can recall the fans being concerned that this might miss the top ten at the time. It came nowhere close to missing it but it was far from their finest hour. 05. (4) Cascada - Truly Madly Deeply 2001; 01 (1) Robbie Williams & Nicole Kidman - Somethin' Stupid 02 (-) Gordon Haskell - How Wonderful You Are Strange that this was the only top ten new entry in Xmas week, I wonder why with such low sales for #1 and realistic chances of getting an 'easy' Xmas #1 barely any acts decided to release anything to compete? I really disliked this song and still do 03 (2) Daniel Bedingfield - Gotta Get Thru This 04 (3) Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Murder On The Dancefloor 06 (7) S Club 7 - Have You Ever Reclimbing in Xmas week? A stocking filler of the time perhaps? 07 (5) Ian Van Dahl - Will I 10. (10) Hermes House Band - Country Roads 1996; 01. (-) Spice Girls - 2 Become 1 Gorgeous song, the finest of their Xmas #1's but I loved the other two as well, ballads were definitely their strong point and how many girl bands can say that? 03. (-) Madonna - Don't Cry For Me Argentina 05. (3) Robert Miles feat Maria Nayler - One & One Love that this was top five for Xmas! 06. (4) Boyzone - A Different Beat 10. (11) The Beautiful South - Don't Marry Her Check out my 2001 retro christmas chart for the full christmas top 40!!
December 25, 201114 yr Agree that 2 Become 1 is one of Spice Girls' finest moments. Yeh a christmas classic for me even if it wasnt a song about christmas!!
December 25, 201114 yr I'm not actually listening so I'll just post the recaps based on Radio 1's page updating. Yes at Slade holding on in the top 40 :cheer: Seems to have kicked 'The A Team' out at the last second unfortunately but I'm sure that'll be back with a bang next week with the gift card effect, TOTP and all the Xmas/campaign songs vanishing! Edited December 25, 201114 yr by Michael Bubré
December 25, 201114 yr Really :o They were mid 50's all week. I know the Christmas song all rised a lot by today but I was expecting Slade to be just outside if anywhere. Anyway glad to hear them still top 40 :D Edited December 25, 201114 yr by Rob Summers
December 25, 201114 yr Author Slade and Wizzard next to each other deserves a :D Looks like there could be 8 or 9 xmas songs top 40 this year, isn't everybody feeling festive in 2011!
December 25, 201114 yr Think Band Aid, Shaky(never went top 40 this year, did he?)and chris rea prob just missed out!!
December 25, 201114 yr 38 Wizzard - I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday ZoxQ4Ul_DME&ob=av2e The kids in the music video must be at least 45 now!
December 25, 201114 yr Slade and Wizzard next to each other deserves a :D Looks like there could be 8 or 9 xmas songs top 40 this year, isn't everybody feeling festive in 2011! Wonder if without the 59p effect most of these could have hovered between 41-60 like last year? Wonder how high The Pogues ended up.Wonder if you could say that Wizzard is more popular than Slade after all these years even tho slade won the original battle??
