Sam Ryder takes lead for first UK Number 1 single with You're Christmas To Me

After losing out to WHAM! on 2023's Official Christmas Number 1, Sam Ryder breaks out into a lead to earn his first-ever UK Number 1 single this week with the Amazon Music Original You’re Christmas To Me (1). Can he go all the way by Friday?

Ed Sheeran and Elton John’s Merry Christmas could rise by one (4), as could The Pogues ft. Kirsty MacColl on Fairytale of New York (5) and Brenda Lee’s Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree (6).

Another Amazon Music Christmas Original, Jorja Smith’s Stay Another Day cover is looking to become her highest-peaking UK single (7).

From Vermont to the Official Chart, Noah Kahan’s Stick Season holds on strong as the only non-Christmas song present in the Top 10 midweek (8).

As she returns to the studio, Ariana Grande’s 2013 hit Santa Tell Me is expected to enter the Top 10 for the first time ever this week, up two (9).

Another modern festive staple, Kelly Clarkson’s Underneath The Tree  is on track for a brand new lifetime peak (12).

Finally, we could see three classic Christmas hits move up the Top 20; Band Aid’s former Christmas Number 1 Do They Know It’s Christmas? (14), Elton John’s Step Into Christmas (17) and Chris Rea’s Driving Home For Christmas (18).
