Paddy Power have just updated their odds on Kylie from 5/1 to 8/5 - they definitely just got loads of bets 🤣

Anyway wherever Kylie ends up this week, the fact we’re even diacusssing that she’s currently #1 in the midweeks is incredible.

Have to say I rate Kylie’s chances pretty well from here. Did anyone manage to get a bet on her at decent odds?

I put £25 down when odds were 7/2.

I think Sour Candy was replying to Hadji's post about being on Spotify (correct me if I'm wrong!), and we all know that if XMAS was a general release, it wouldn't be charting anywhere near as high. The push via Alexa's algorithms is more than just a regular playlist push, adding to the fact that it's on SCR in a sea of ACR hits currently, counts for a lot more than if it were on all platforms and had a Hot Hits UK add.

Jason being the only member of BuzzJack that's not rooting for Kylie to get that Christmas #1

You say this but Wham! and Mariah are at the top of most playlists if they pushed both down to the mid regions of the playlist I'm sure they wouldn't be as high in streams.

I bet a fiver at 20/1, wish I bet more! 😂

I couldn’t find anywhere taking bets back when it was announced and I tried hard! Would’ve put £20 on it, kicking myself

I actually want Kylie to be number 1, but the spamming of links is putting me off and makes me want to route for anyone else 🤣🤣

Just thought it would be good to have a recap of this time last years Monday midweek:

01 Wham! - Last Christmas (23,834)

02 Tom Grennan - It Can't Be Christmas (17,663)

03 Mariah Carey - All I Want for Christmas Is You (16,771)

04 Gracie Abrams - That's So True (14,899)

05 Brenda Lee - Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree (13,762)

Interesting how the sales for the positions are pretty much the same but Wham now having the #2 sales and Kylie currently having those #1 sales.

Now your just being ridiculous noone NEEDS a number 1 it's not a life or death situation 🤣🤣

I would genuinely argue the charts need a new Xmas no1 to reinvigorate the December charts?!

Come through kylie, she is definitely putting up a fight for it now.

Of course last year Wham! had physicals. This year Kylie does.

Kylie has climbed to 3 on the Amazon chart now (highest has been 6) just behind Mariah and Wham! So hopefully she won’t see a big dip in streaming sales this week.

Yeah one day behind from other streaming sites so Kylie's not safe yet by any means it's probably neck and neck if things stay the same throughout the week.

Yes. I agree it’ll be neck and neck at the end of the week.

Though Wham! have only caught up by 270 copies since yesterday. I feel Kylie would currently still be maybe 3k ahead if Spotify and Apple data were up to date (especially as Wham! are only on what Kylie was on yesterday with 1 days streams across all platforms added since yesterday)

Regretting not putting a tenner on when it was 7/1!

Even if you’re not a fan of Kylie nor Scamazon’s shenanigans you can’t deny it’s nice to have a battle for the Xmas #1 again.

I like last christmas ( i used to love it) ,however i can't stand the fact it is number 1 every year, It be nice to have a new number 1 for christmas.
