December 3, 20177 yr how Because the prize was always to release a single to battle for the xmas #1 and a record deal
December 3, 20177 yr The smart thing for them to do would be to just start counting the sales of the previous performances to the chart this week so the two versions of 'Dimelo' can be combined and they can get 2 other new entries this week. But I doubt they'll do that.

December 4, 20177 yr :arrowup: 04. . Rak-Su - Dimelo (feat. Wyclef Jean & Naughty Boy) [X Factor Recording] Really hope this official version can overtake the other one soon, but there is a big gap.
December 4, 20177 yr They haven't done it in previous years sadly, I don't see why not it's not like they'd flood the chart. Without Spotify (I assum only the actual winning single will go on Spotfy) they wouldn't get that high it'd just be nice to see if they managed a top 40 or 2 or 3. If they suddenly made everything eligible after the show, they'd run the risk of having very minor hits making them look bad. Though they ought to at least make the original Dimelo eligible so they can combine the sales.

December 4, 20177 yr Author Given it is not chart eligible, they should really be deleting the second version of Dimelo. The real version is on the front of iTunes now, so I can see the non-eligible version starting to drop, fast.
December 4, 20177 yr Can the label just not make both versions of 'Dimelo' eligible, or delete the ineligible one then?
December 4, 20177 yr cannot remember which one of their (silly) songs is Dimelo, the one about the fajita or the one rhyming Mona Lisa and Pisa? :D
December 4, 20177 yr cannot remember which one of their (silly) songs is Dimelo, the one about the fajita or the one rhyming Mona Lisa and Pisa? :D Neither of those, 'Dimelo' is the one that references 'hips like Shakira'.
December 4, 20177 yr Isn't Syco more on the ball than this? If they saw the winner's single was being outsold by another version of the same song wouldn't they either delete it or make sure they were combined for the chart position?
December 4, 20177 yr I'm more shocked that there isn't a studio version of the winners single this year.
December 4, 20177 yr Isn't Syco more on the ball than this? If they saw the winner's single was being outsold by another version of the same song wouldn't they either delete it or make sure they were combined for the chart position? Look at the 'career' of Fleur East. There's your answer.
December 4, 20177 yr what is the exact song eligible for the chart among those? and is it avaiable on spotify or just apple music on streaming?
December 4, 20177 yr does the other version not count? in that case we should consider ed sheeran in the lead for chart purposes
