'Defying Gravity' defying the Christmas songs and climbing (for now)

Not a musical fan by any stretch but Defying Gravity goes pretty hard!

5 Wham! - Last Christmas

4 Gigi Perez - Sailor Song

Is APT. on ACR?

Is APT. on ACR?

No, it's finally overtaken 'Sailor Song'!

 

Is APT. on ACR?

 

Nope, too early. It was on its way to overtaking Sailor Song this week. That, Band Aid and Gracie are the top 3

I will never get tired of Sailor Song.

3 ROSÉ & Bruno Mars - APT.

I will never get tired of Sailor Song.

 

Oh you will

I reckon Band Aid will have a Mark Knopfler style high first look position then fall pretty hard by Friday

I’d imagine band aid will be very front loaded with physicals same way the Liam Gallagher song was earlier this year , if it has been reset I’d imagine it could stay top 5/10? If not I’d imagine it’ll improve slightly on usual positioning and get to the top 20?

If it’s combined and reset which last weeks talk suggests then maybe it’ll get #1 for a week

It was introduced early as the remix so I don't think it's combined

2 Gracie Abrams - That's So True

1 Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas?

OCC will combine it, the headlines for the song RETURNING to #1 are just too tempting for them.

Tbh, even with a reset the original doesn’t really do exceptionally well on streaming and the new one is nowhere to be seen so I’d doubt it’ll be able to hold at #1

Band aid combined confirmed

Guess we can't yet tell whether it has been combined & reset or the new version has just sold in big numbers

 

Edit: OK, so the reset may be enough for it to hold #1 with added sales in the new version of only 10k or so

This version is a pile of Brussels sprouts.
