November 9, 2025Nov 9 I don't see a point in announcing the streaming performance of Christmas songs "good" or "bad" in November. Edited November 9, 2025Nov 9 by Sour Candy
November 9, 2025Nov 9 It was this week last year Christmas songs entered the top 40 right? Hopefully they aren't in this early this year...
November 9, 2025Nov 9 They seem to be down a bit this year on last year (Mariah and Wham certainly), so hopefully this miss out this week. Think they will almost certainly enter the following week though
November 9, 2025Nov 9 Strange when the markets have started evening earlier than ever well at least manchester has

November 9, 2025Nov 9 Hopefully that means 'Think About Us' can go top 40 this week, seeing as all the Halloween songs denied it last week.
November 9, 2025Nov 9 It was bitterly cold this time last year afaik. We had snow a week Friday (I remember it well for personal reasons~) which would've affected the Christmas song playcounts. There are multiple factors at play!
November 9, 2025Nov 9 Santa Tell Me now establishing itself as the third post popular Christmas song.
November 9, 2025Nov 9 I think this will change as we get into December, it always starts well due to Ariana fans streaming it. Brenda will definitely overtake at the very least

That would mean that she’s not as far behind Wham! as she seems. That’s certainly the case on Amazon which has at least two separate charts: one is the top 100 and appears to combine versions putting Mariah ahead. The other chart goes into the 1000s at least, and although Wham! appear to be far ahead, the second version of Mariah is far ahead of the second version of Wham!
