Great to see Shaky and Wizzard in the top 40 again, hope Shaky has 2 versions on xmas week :).

 

 

Eyes Shut is beautiful, and while it's not an absolute wow moment like King and Shine were, it is still a very good song. It should have done a lot better.

Eyes Shut is brill imo!

Never liked Last Christmas too much though it is still ok!

Last Christmas is still a classic. There are a few better Christmas songs though.

great to have wham! back in the top 25 :heart:

Wham! :wub:

 

Would be nice for Carly Rae Jepsen's version to appear as well though.

My favourite part of the Last Christmas video: when everyone's laying around looking annoyed, as if they have drunk too much and are just waiting for the hangover effects to knock in.

Did he just say Lay Me Down? :lol: Well thank gosh that horror isn't in the chart anymore :puke2:

 

Lay It All On Me is really good :wub:

Lay It All On Me is fantastic.

Shame Rudimental/Ed couldn't stay in the top 20 to break the record for most consecutive weeks between 11-20 :(

Its top 20 run is over then!

Love Me Like You is absolutely fantastic. Now I'm hoping for Secret Love Song to go top 10, since this (extremely unjustly) couldn't.

Fantastic run for this, its peak is unfortunate but I don't think that matters now.

#26-40 all filled in now :D
