I'm happy to see Chris Rea score a top 40 hit with this Christmas song especially since he has bad luck with the charts since his only top 10 hit was "The Road To Hell" in 1989 and his only US top 40 hit was the original recording of "Fool (If You Think Over)" in which he reportedly hated as soon as a recorded the tune and redid it for his greatest hits albums.

Andy Williams isn't download only is he? :unsure:

 

EDIT: Oh and John Lennon IS isn't he?

Andy Williams isn't download only is he? :unsure:

No, it was released fully this week as far as I know :o

I think this song reminds me of something from Jack Johnson.

# 57 Newton Faulkner

I hope her song reaches the top 40 next week. I'd like to see it go top 20, but I think that's asking a bit much.

track listing

1. Elvis Ain't Dead

2. You Were Fitter In Your MySpace Picture

3. Michaela Strachan

4. I Loved You Much More

 

3rd hit this year for Scouting For Girls and their best tune so far for this trio and I think the tune will reach the top 15 next week.

 

Also I think we all know from following the charts the past couple of years that Elvis Ain't Dead will all those reissues that have invaded the top 40 every week.
