This is a bloke who can normally get a No 1 with most of his releases, being down at 9th and not even outdoing Easy on Me is a poor showing.

And people round here were trying to claim he's not a fading pop star.

It used to come out around 3pm didn't it? It's only recent weeks it's been midday.

Isn't there already a thread for this?

Hope you're planning to turn your radio off for December given this is going to be on every radio station. It's a radio-orientated Christmas nostalgia-fest we haven't anything this good in that category since Darkness.

But all the timeless and best Christmas songs are produced within an inch of their life. That's exactly what you want for a Christmas song. The issue with a lot of recent ones has been utter forgettability, this doesn't have it. I really don't think there desperate for a Christmas No 1, I think Elton - an elderly man now with known health issues and Ed Sheeran a fading pop star - are desperate for a Christmas song that will immortalise them, not necessarily bothered about the No 1 which they know will probably go to a sausage roll (there's a nod to that in the video as well) - that's something they've probably managed, but only time will tell.

Merry Christmas is going top out Spotify I take it.

Like many others I've always watched it for the Australian jungle, the good weather and the escapism factor. A version of it in a castle in Wales holds absolutely no interest.

CDs shipping on 10th should help it?

Bloody hell that's good. Count me pleasantly surprised. Video is great too

6th.

Spice Girls beating Pink Floyd, this is the problem with using a narrowly skewed demographic.

Not exactly the best advert for the chart is it? I guess Adele's on an exclusive deal with ITV then. Ed's presumably too busy.

Enemy at #46 on Spotify even with the Christmas onslaught so could climb this week.

Snows melted and it's warmer.

If the music industry starts demanding the amount it should actually be receiving for streaming as far as royalties go then I'd imagine it would be replaced pretty quickly by illegal downloads, and a handful of CD/legal download holdouts - giving us thedaft harts of the early to mid 2000s revisited

I'd rather here shite new ones than the same old shite old ones. ArDee belting out Jingle Bell Rocks with guest slots from SWITCHOTR, A1 and J1, Russ Millions and guest slots from D Block Europe would be preferable to hearing All I Want for Christmas again.

#43 - Dickie Valentine - All the Time and Everywhere Debut: 19 March 1953 / 13 March 1953* Peak: 09 WoC: 3 Chart Run: 12-9-10 Zi24AAhB1Oc And we move swiftly on to the second of Dickie Valentine's fourteen Top 40 tunes. This is a beautiful one it has to be said, heartfelt lyrics sung by a lovely singer with great music. *Will be using both given dates from now on for ease. First is OCC website date, second OCC books date.

Star out xmas songs older than 3 years. Would encourage current artists to write new ones

In the grand scheme of things this in an incredibly minor thing - but I just noticed. In the 2000s the most recent thread is showing up as 'Throwback Mod Thread' now as most of us can't access that (for good reasons!!) it's a bit useless in terms of us seeing if anyones contributed to other threads at a glance. Is there anyway it can be separated so only users who are able to post in the thread can see it's updated with a new post? See below... https://i.imgur.com/wjigI9G.png/img]
