So the week after Chirstmas and Kylie holds on for a 2nd week at #1 with XMAS. Sophie Ellis Bextor rises to #2 with Time, possibly the first #1 of 2026? Lewis Capaldi slips a place to #3, as does Amy MacDonald to #4. Cast go up 5 to #5 with Free Love, their best in a while I think. Olly Murs & Ordinary Boys climb to #6 with their festive offering Christmas Starts Tonight. Sigrid gets another top 10 hit with Hush Baby, Hurry Slowly, up 6 to #9. Better Joy's Steamroller is the week's non-festive highest climber, up 7 to #11 this week. Richard Ashcroft has the highest new entry with Heavy News at #14, one of the highlights on his Lovin' You album. Sam Clegg shoots up 9 to #19 with Angel On The Tree and Cher up 8 to #21 with Christmas Is Here, both festive songs of course. Jack Savoretti has a 2nd hit of 2025 with Only Gonna Cry For You, with Steph Fraser. Another seasonal climber is Christmas All Over Again by Bryan Adams & co at #28. One Republic enter at #29 with Give Me Something, newcomer Dove Ellis debuts at #32 with Love Is.

Hi there Adele!

Nice to see "Hush Baby, Hurry Slowly" in the top 10 and the debut for "Give Me Something".

Great chart!

Take care.

Hey Adele!

It's good to see Kylie continue her run at #1.

Dopamine co tongues to be good though I am somewhat tiring of it now.

Ooo, a big drop for the fate of Ophelia. Hopefully this can stabilise post Christmas.

Good stuff 🥳

Hey Adele,

Nice debut for OneRepublic 😇

Katy dropping 🥲

Very good N.1!! 😊
