Exactly how long have Dua's physicals been available esp. for pre order prior to the GP hearing the full song last Thurs.?

Since 1 November when the single was announced.

 

Houdini cassette was reduced to 99p yesterday :w00t:

Think it'll all be a little too late for Dua, the gap is only increasing unfortunately. Not that #2 is anything to turn your nose up at, it's where Vampire peaked for ages and that felt huge, it's just up against a genuinely big other song released on the same day.

Passenger has been posting about being in a chart battle for #5 so assume sales are close

We have had more than one new christmas hit in recent years , just because they dont get number 1 doesnt mean their isnt,

I have certainly heard of the Little Boots, Bucks Fizz and Katy Perry efforts!

Boots' song was wonderful, in 2021 year I rated it as # 4 in all-time Christmas songs list (behind YVA, Joan Regan and Ivana's "Happy White Christmas").

Don't know why she removed it from Youtube. :(

That KP track is pretty well-known, especially compared to all the others you've mentioned. I mean, it's made two separate visits to the top 30.

Yep the Katy Perry one usually charts reasonably and I have heard it played out and about in the season.

I reckon Taylor will stop a Beatles top 2 in the albums and wedge between them in #2
