December 10, 20205 yr But people don't want to hear new music right now. The most-streamed non-Christmas song isn't even at 300k daily Spotify streams - that's VERY low! Completely agree, seems a bit of a reach to imply that Christmas songs are somehow stopping people listening to new music. And if people do want to hear new music, they can do. Not sure how Christmas songs being streamed in specific Christmas-themed playlists impacts someone being able to listen to new music on a new music-themed playlist instead, unless their entire new music listening experience is the UK Friday night chart? I understand that artists aren't releasing new music because of the fact that people would rather listen to Christmas songs in December, but that isn't a new thing at all. It's not like Christmas songs have only just been invented... More artists should maybe record Christmas songs if they are worried about being bogged down in the winter months, but obviously make sure they are good. Yes I know artists do this but they are often shite, but if they actually record something half decent then it definitely works (see Kelly Clarkson, Leona Lewis as examples of hits now), not something like Liam Payne's Naughty List.
December 10, 20205 yr On a scale of 1 to 10, how likely do you think it is that Mariah will be number 1 in the UK tomorrow? Unless Jess Glynne happens to get a faked Amazon boost then I'd say a 9 out of 10 at least. :lol:
December 10, 20205 yr Xmas classics have the broadest appeal of existing music, it's not deeper than that.
December 10, 20205 yr Mine are still between my hall and landing if that helps. :lol: :lol: :lol: #14 Nice to see a small rise finally! :wub:

December 10, 20205 yr 0, the OCC will rig it!!!!!! (this is the last day I have to make this joke, let me make the most of it :kink:)
December 10, 20205 yr It appears that evermore is digital only, much like folklore's first week was too. Hoping for big numbers!!!
December 10, 20205 yr Hi everyone, I've finally joined this forum this evening on All I Want For Christmas Is You eve (I hope). I've spent the last hour reading the posts on this forum and loved reading almost all of them. A lot of the comments have made me smile a lot! haha also after the OCC rigged last year's immediately-after-Christmas chart by missing off 4m Youtube views and putting a phantom AIWFCIY cover version in the video chart at 13, I'm really hopeful that tomorrow 26 years of wait will be over (I was probably the only kid in the world that listened to the whole top 40 in 1994 on Christmas Day knowing Mariah could only be number two after it had been announced on the Christmas Day TOTP). That is of course, if the OCC's emergency rigging meeting, attended by Amazon and Jess Glynne's representatives bears no fruit this evening. :) Andrew :dance:
December 10, 20205 yr Hey Andrew, welcome to the forum! :D Always glad to have another Mariah fan on board :cheer:
December 10, 20205 yr @1337103373372428307 Wasn't this discussed in this thread earlier?! James reads Buzzjack confirmed? :unsure:
December 10, 20205 yr I’m hoping Ariana leapfrogs Mariah and Wham tomorrow or Wham leapfrogs Mariah just to see the utter meltdown on Buzzjack 😂😂😂
