Wouldn't surprise me if Adele released 'Fastlove' on boxing day to commemorate the one year anniversary (which is essentially the day that news broke out of George's death last year).

^think you're right, but it's a pity it's not out this week, she could easily claim the Xmas #1 and beat the desperado aka Ed

 

In albums enimem is #1 on itunes now

listening to the album, the song with Pink (Need Me) sounds great on 1st listen, should have been the lead

much better than the Beyonce snoozefest

Wham climbing! :o

Last Christmas #2!

so looks like no adele :/

Because Adele is not shamelessly desperate for a Xmas #1 like Ed is :) it's actually really annoying me now just how cynically and shamelessly he's achieved the Xmas #1. Andrea sounds so out of place on Perfect Symphony.

 

Is there a campaign to get 'Last Christmas' to #1?

 

Big Shaq's attempt at the Xmas #1 by releasing the "Christmas edition" of Man's Not Hot is ridiculously laughable! All he's basically done is add some bells to it :lol: does he really think it will go anywhere near #1?

 

New Anne-Marie is instantly better than 'Heavy' :)

 

Loving the Pink/Eminem collab on first listen, agree that it should have been the lead instead of the Beyonce collab, even though it's more Pink feat. Eminem than Eminem feat. Pink lol.

 

I'm calling it right now though - 'River' will be the first new #1 of 2018!

The Andrea Bocelli version of "Perfect" is just... :mellow:

Perfect Symphony up to #15. Ed's fans really will buy anything. :mellow:

 

He could release Perfect Ding Dong featuring Crazy Frog and it would still make the iTunes top 10.

 

Also, AC/DC up to #24 with For Those About to Rock, presumably a chart campaign to commemorate the guitarist's death.

 

Plus Michael Ball/Alfie Boe up to #38 / Eminem/Ed up to #6.

Perfect Symphony up to #15. Ed's fans really will buy anything. :mellow:

 

He could release Perfect Ding Dong featuring Crazy Frog and it would still make the iTunes top 10

Don't give him ideas :mellow:

Wham climbing! :o

Just downloaded one of the versions from a Now Xmas Album, all ready had the Single version in my library given away from Google Play a couple of years ago for 19p - also had AIWFCIY from the same Promotion - I miss the 99p Album Promotion they used to have at this time of year as well.

Is there a campaign to get 'Last Christmas' to #1?

"A facebook campaign has amassed 30,000 supporters" - going to need a bit more momentum, possible though Last Christmas For Xmas Number 1

It was on the news about 10pm on Christmas Day. I hope she does release it somehow anyway.

Chloe Khan’s version of “It’s Raining Men” is nowhere to be seen in the top 200 :D

2. Wham! - Last Christmas (Single Version)

11. Ed Sheeran - Perfect Symphony (with Andrea Bocelli)

21. AC/DC - For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)

29. Michael Ball & Alfie Boe With The Rays of Sunshine Children's Choir & Friends - Bring Me Sunshine

40. Fall Out Boy - Champion (Remix) [feat. RM of BTS]

90. Not3s & Mabel - My Lover (Remix)

94. Love Against The Machine - Love Is the Only Law

118. Captain Ska – Sons & Daughters

146. The Decemberists - Ben Franklin's Song

173. Anne-Marie - Then

ed Sheeran will do anything to be No.1 but as other artists will tell you over exposure yourself and the public will soon get tired of you and move on to the next star.

This is exactly me an hour earlier. :lol: I was hoping to help the top version out but a sale's a sale I guess. Really hoping Wham can do it this week. The poignancy + blocking Ed/Bey and EminEd + it actually being a Christmas song - Mariah can have it next year. :kink:

2. Wham! - Last Christmas (Single Version) - 0.90 (other version #29)

3. Eminem - River (feat. Ed Sheeran) - 0.71

8. Ed Sheeran - Perfect Symphony (with Andrea Bocelli) - 0.37 (original at #16)

19. AC/DC - For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)

25. Michael Ball & Alfie Boe With The Rays of Sunshine Children's Choir & Friends - Bring Me Sunshine

69. Captain Ska – Sons & Daughters

 

People moaning about Ed being desperate to be #1 would be lapping it up if it was their fave artist. I mean this is the forum who beg for their faves to promote on Loose Women etc, Ed has put out two remixes with 2 superstars of their own genre. I know which is more desperate.

Gwon Lucy its not gonna happen but she is so underated and deserves another hit (shame last night was denied a top 10 because she was forced to delete it that week)
