I wonder if this will ever peak higher than #7!

The Perry Como et al version of IBTLALLC is so much better.

You'd think this song would do better at the start of Christmas time.

Feels weird its one of the biggest Christmas hits now

Hope Brenda can make the top 5 this week.

The Pogues still in the game! :cheer:

Bollocks!

Buble has his first million selling single.

Is band aid now officially the best ever selling single in the uk with it over 5 million sales/units now?

Shape of You was ahead with about 5.2m I believe, until this month at least.

OMG, Brenda a new peak and in the top 5. :o

BRENDA LEE FINALLY IN THE TOP 5! :cheeseblock:

Glad this done so well on streaming this year compared to previous years, a proper classic for me

Brenda lee break record now

All these weeks at #6 :drama: will Shaky ever return to the Top 5?

6 is great for shaky but I'd have loved top 5. Great to see a couple of songs getting new peaks this year.

Omg Brenda!!!

What position do you think Bad Habits will re-enter at next week? I feel like it will re-enter in the top 10, maybe #8 or #9?

I’d say ACR might push it down to Top 15, but a high re-entry nonetheless.

Love that 'Merry Christmas Everyone' has really cemented itself as a festive big-hitter in the streaming era.

Biography

 

Brenda Mae Tarpley (born December 11, 1944), known professionally as Brenda Lee, is an American singer. Performing rockabilly, pop and country music, she had 47 US chart hits during the 1960s and is ranked fourth in that decade, surpassed only by Elvis Presley, the Beatles and Ray Charles. She is known for her 1960 hit "I'm Sorry", and 1958's "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree", which has become a Christmas standard.

 

At 4 ft 9 inches tall (approximately 145 cm), she received the nickname "Little Miss Dynamite" in 1957, after recording the song "Dynamite" when she was 12, and was one of the earliest pop stars to have a major contemporary international following.

 

In 1969, Lee returned to the charts with her recording "Johnny One Time" penned by A.L. "Doodle" Owens and Dallas Frazier. The song reached #3 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary Chart and #41 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song also earned Lee her second Grammy nomination for Best Pop Female Vocal. Later success came with a return to her roots as a country singer, with a string of hits through the 1970s and 1980s. She is a member of the Rock and Roll, Country Music and Rockabilly Halls of Fame. She is also a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. Lee is the only woman to be inducted into both the Rock and Roll and Country Music Halls of Fame. She lives in Nashville, Tennessee. - Wikipedia
