Soz Pitbull, this party NEEDS to be stopped.

I don't see the Pogues/Kirsty in the top 10, but 11/12 is still great for such an old song :D Yet again the highest charting xmas song from the past :lol:

Pitbull, Am I the only one who wants him to disappear in 2013?

12 (from 18) The Pogues Feat. Kirsty MacColl - Fairytale Of New York [P]

Fairytale Of New York = :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:

Number 12 this year for FTONY, shows how much the nation still loves this tune after 25 years.

Yessss Fairytale of New York!!! Such a shame this never got #1....like Wham :lol:

 

Great to have it has high as it is :D

First time I've made it through Don't Stop the Party in its entirety (I usually get freaked out and stop it about a minute in :lol:). I have to admit, Pitbull's song is better than the BEP's Don't Stop the Party, although I'm not overly fond of either lol.

Highest peak in three years for the Pogues - woo! I hope it can get back into the top 10 one year, it could do it SO easily with a 59p reduction.

 

I really hope this has passed the million, but I sense next Christmas seems most likely.

This done better than i thought, would love it to have been top 10. Id say its sold around 30 at this spot. Even though it missed todays and xmas eve sales!

Watch out it will drop like a brick next week :snif:

Best. Christmas. Song. Ever. :D

 

I could have been someone... WELL SO COULD ANYONEEEEEEEE. *Sways from left to right*

There's something REMARKABLY wrong when one even releases a song called Don't Stop the Party

 

Overrated IMO. :(

Pitbull, Am I the only one who wants him to disappear in 2013?

 

He won't completely disappear, but he is certainly fading since 2011. He won't have a career when dance-pop has faded from the mainstream.

Watch out it will drop like a brick next week :snif:

 

 

Wonder if 2 days sales will be enough to keep it top 75?

Overrated IMO. :(

Blasphemy :cry:

 

I can see how you think that tbh, everyone hypes it up every year for a top 10 peak :lol:

Was it a different "TJR" that had a top 30 in 1997 as "TJR featuring Xavier" called "Just Gets Better"?

 

Yup. This TJR is a 'TJ Rozdilsky', that one was a duo of Karl Brown and Matt Lamont.

 

Absolutely fantastic to see The Pogues matching their 2008/9 peak and outdoing their 2010/11 peaks. Long may its dominance continue each Christmas. :wub:

 

And pleased to see Labrinth is not going to spend 8 weeks at #8 :lol:
