It’ll definitely get streams - can’t see either going big on support of a previous Amazon exclusive and Spotify are not known to be the biggest Kylie supporters (they basically cancelled out her version of Santa Baby with their playlists).

Funny this morning, I was out running very early but stopped for a coffee with a mate, At Christmas comes on, then I was in Birmingham bullring, Santa Baby. Nice PRS royalties!

HMV Bullring well stocked on the marble vinyl and they have a few 'postcard CD' left alongside many more standard CD. Of course, I spread out the stock....not as though anyone else is looking or buying much physical stock. The yellow and clear T2 vinyl is in the reduced section, £23, along with Black Vinyl Disco for £15 and DGL triple vinyl edition at £20...that is well worth it, the packaging is great.

This feels like a very centric UK campaign - however odd that Ireland can even source CDs before Christmas for the album, almost seems as if they’ve protected all stock for the UK.

It seems that way as shipping christmas albums on Jan 5th is shipping way too late or 11 months too early!!

Back up to 2 on Amazon current best sellers in CD/Vinyl (CD is 32nd best seller of 2025)

Back up to 3 on UK Itunes

Streaming increasing.

Every sale helps

My Banquet CD and vinyl now both marked as despatched!!!

4 years old?

Yes Sarah Hudson sent it to her 4 years ago. Kylie didn't need an Xmas song at the time but now it is released to all our happiness

Love her reaction to the scrabble set at the end

Thank god she recorded it as it will always help me look back on her Christmas album with a greater fondness than i had up to now.

Loving Hot in December now. Christmas music isn’t usually my thing but this is just so fun, in a parallel universe where XMAS doesn’t exist I imagine this is having a DJ Play a Christmas Song type chart run

Sort of think it is a bit of a nod to us in Australia also. We will support XMAS but it doesn't reflect our Christmas. Just the Title "Hot in December" has Aussie Xmas written all over it. She will be home in a few days, spending Christmas in Melbourne as usual.

Is Kylie still big in Australia? Definitely feels like she gets way more support in the UK these days.

At least the rollercoaster Amazon XMAS ride is happening but the three new tracks are excellent in different ways and hopefully they’ll all have their time in the ‘hot’ sun in future years.

#27 in today's UK update.

Need it to hold on ha ha.

TBF half the items are Out Of Stock and 90% of items don't even contain XMAS

it was a money grab on the back of the Amazon Exclusive single and its fine if it drops away. It will continue to boost her streaming for years to come

If they do and Alexa pulls out all the stops could a River-esque #1 be on the cards?

Oh if I could go back in time to when I made this post and bet my bank account on it

At least it won't fall as far as Tension II in the second week.
