On Spotify at least, the Boxing Day top 20 will still be dominated by Christmas songs but a few others should return (Noah, Jack and Tate as a minimum, the former quite high). It's usually the most 'boomerish' Christmas songs that fall hardest first, but all Christmas songs will drop hard on the 27th and things should be virtually back to normal by the 28th.

I can see Brenda achieving the most streamed Xmas track in the coming years going by yesterday's day to day increase.

The record was broken in my opinion more because Spotify seems to have more users now than ever before

This.

 

There's every chance the next Adele comeback song will get much higher streams that Easy On Me got, purely because the shift towards streaming has been even bigger since then.

Dunno. Think her star has faded somewhat with '30'

Not everyone has been here for the 10 years this has been going on and don’t realise that the trolling is deemed normal and acceptable on this site.

 

Yes, which nobody ever does anything about either...

I'm not standing for all the Dean Martin slander in here tbh. Call me a boomer if you will but I genuinely love his version of 'Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!' and would absolutely seek it out for my own playlistings x

 

(and even more not standing for The Ronettes slander -_- that one doesn't even sound particularly boomerish)

Don't care much for Dean Martin, but I also love Sleigh Ride by the Ronettes, hopefully it can get a new peak officially this week.

Lol. Just realised Prada is at 4 on Apple (without Christmas) and ready for New Year defrosting......

The Amazon chart is misleading. Last night, it was still dominated by Christmas songs, but then, Scrooge decided to filter them out, and they don’t show anymore. Bah Humbug!

Edited December 27, 20231 yr by Chloe🎄

Anyway, can't remember if Boxing Day streams are still completely dominated by Christmas songs or do we have to wait one more day? Whatever, soon we'll have normal songs back in the Spotify top 50 and interesting to see what new ones emerge.

 

I swear it’ll bore me to see Kenya Grace back in the top 5 on 180k streams….

Just noticed that Santa Tell Me was added to the top of the A List pop playlist on Apple over the holiday weekend a non Christmas playlist which is normally only for current pop hits which is quite surprising. Surprised this extra support didn’t translate into her being higher on their chart.

 

Also is ‘Step into Christmas’ normally ahead of Mariah in the top 5 on Xmas weekend like it was?
