LadBaby actually lengthening on odds so tempted to chuck a bit more on him/them.

 

I did the same earlier :P

Does seem mad not to offer odds on a quickly growing No.2.

 

I think the early signs are Ed and Elton have no chance at Xmas No.1, the strong download week is this week, the strong physicals week is next week, it's doing moderately on streaming - for now at least and I don't expect it to suddenly launch up to sit among the classics - so once its two big weeks are out the way I'm not sure what will be sustaining it in week 3, certainly not enough to beat LadBaby - even if they suddenly drop to 80k opening sales it will be enough.

Gayle is on BET365 current odds 14/1

 

Was 33/1 a couple of days ago

Still think it’s going to be Mariah

Gayle still nowhere to be seen is a bit odd.

So a tenner at 5/4 would get you what?

Thanks!

LadBaby ft. Ed Sheeran & Elton John is now available to pre-order, so looks like Ed & Elton will get Christmas #1 after all!

! Elton to pull the most unexpected hat trick of No.1s in a calendar year ever?

 

It's a no brainer that that will be No.1 with huge sales. Game over.

Question - will the bookies pay out if you bet on just LadBaby now? Considering you can also bet separately for Ed and Elton, I doubt they'd pay out for that, so it does make me wonder.

 

Or do we have to wait for Ladbaby feat Ed and Elton to appear?

LadBaby aim for Christmas chart record - with help from Ed Sheeran and Elton John

 

LadBaby are going for a record fourth UK Christmas number one in a row - with help from Ed Sheeran and Elton John.

 

YouTube stars Mark and Roxanne Hoyle have raised money for the Trussell Trust food bank charity with their sausage roll-themed singles since 2018.

 

This year's attempt is a cheeky version of Ed and Elton's Merry Christmas, called Sausage Rolls For Everyone.

 

LadBaby could overtake the Spice Girls and Beatles as the act with the most consecutive Christmas number ones.

 

The Beatles had three in a row in the 1960s and the Spice Girls achieved the same feat in the 90s, with LadBaby matching the record over the past three years.

 

Sheeran was the last artist before the Nottinghamshire couple to have a festive number one, with his 2017 love song Perfect.

 

The star said he was "proud" to be supporting and featuring on LadBaby's single this Christmas.

 

"All profits will be donated to The Trussell Trust, which is a very wonderful and important charity, so make sure you stream it, buy it and play it on repeat," Sheeran said.

 

In a statement, Hoyle said: "Ed and Elton are pop royalty and they've both had huge success at Christmas, so we're honoured and excited to be coming together to help families this Christmas... with the power of sausage rolls."

 

The charity song will be released on 17 December.

 

Proceeds from Ed and Elton's original song are also going to charity - split between the Ed Sheeran Suffolk Music Foundation and The Elton John Aids Foundation.

Will the original Merry Christmas still chart separately or will its sales be included as part of the LadBaby collaboration?

Sky Bet just confirmed to me that they won't be paying out on my LadBaby bets now.

 

Just lost a bunch of money. Merry f***ing Christmas to me.

George has an Amazon Christmas song out though

It's a different title with different lyrics so they surely will be separate

So there is a strong chance Elton will get an unbelievable 3 #1s in a year ?

Remarkable when it took him until 1991 to get his first 3 #1s!

Nowadays its pretty much unheard of for much older artists to get #1 so I'm really happy people are taking to his songs and hopefully it will help his singles to become better hits in the future, maybe he wil stick with doing a few collaborations with big names?

Argh :angry: I suspected they might do that, which is pretty unfair.

 

I always tread so carefully with bookies, i could even imagine them weasling out if Harry Styles ended up Christmas No.1 and saying, as per the post above, 'no you bet on Harry Stiles'
