October 30, 20213 yr Christmas No.1 right there. I know it's Ed and he seems a tad over-keen to be No.1, but it might be nice to have a new Christmas related song topping the festive chart
October 30, 20213 yr Author Wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up being an Amazon Original release. Not a chance with how much Ed had been talking about it! (And the fact that Amazon Original songs have always been covers)
October 30, 20213 yr Not a chance with how much Ed had been talking about it! (And the fact that Amazon Original songs have always been covers) ‘Cozy Little Christmas’ wasn’t a cover. Also in an interview it was mentioned he’s got an announcement with Amazon soon.
October 30, 20213 yr Author Well it’ll be one way to make sure it doesn’t become a Christmas classic then, but I really can’t see that happening.
October 30, 20213 yr I'm torn. I kind of don't want it to go to #1, but at the same time it would be amazing for Elton John to get 2 #1s in the same year. I hope it's good at least. The snippet doesn't sound too bad.
November 6, 20213 yr So Ed was on Jonathan Ross tonight and he played a couple of acoustic snippets of 'Merry Christmas'. And it actually sounds like it's gonna be massive! There's a singalong bit at the end which he played which already sounds like a huge earworm! Christmas #1 is sewn up I reckon.
November 7, 20213 yr I haven't seen a release date yet but I would assume Dec 17th, just in time for the Christmas chart.
November 7, 20213 yr It’s hard to know what strategy they would go for as a 17/12 release date would mean a 3 week chart run, unless they would be happy with it being sent to radio in late November and have an old style chart held back strategy. But would that work in 2021?
November 7, 20213 yr Author Yeah I reckon it’ll be released by the end of the month, with physicals for the Christmas #1 week.
November 7, 20213 yr I wouldn't be completely surprised if we don't get this until Christmas chart week
November 7, 20213 yr I think I would actually get the physical for it. The only physical single I got last year was Liam Gallagher vinyl, maybe it’ll become a tradition!
November 26, 20213 yr This is out next week according to Ed’s Instagram story Edited November 26, 20213 yr by darrens94
November 26, 20213 yr Just as Shivers and Bad Habits go to ACR.... hmmmm Or maybe because it’s December? And you know it’s a Christmas song…
November 26, 20213 yr Just as Shivers and Bad Habits go to ACR.... hmmmm I thought that day would never come!
November 27, 20213 yr Strange late release for this it’ll only have 20 days of sales! Is it on air on sale?
November 27, 20213 yr Is it on air on sale? Is the Pope Catholic? I don't mean to be rude but has it somehow escaped your notice that held-back releases have not been a thing for many, many years now... :P ~ Anyways, looks like they're not even attempting to compete with LadBaby for the Xmas #1 (and just as well because there's no way they'd win that), definitely the right move from them to release it a couple weeks before Christmas to possibly have a shot at #1. I think Adele will hold them off anyway but we'll see.
