Records are bound to be broken with the advent of streaming. In the days of Elvis and the Beatles, they had to rely on record sales only. Once a record has sold all it's copies then none of them would be in the charts leading up to Christmas. As someone said, this streaming has pushed other artists right down the chart.

believe it or not, back in the day on the hot 100 chart xmas songs would be on the holiday hot 100 chart. i can't recall when billboard put them on the reg. hot 100 chart. here's a xmas wk top 10 i found out for 1995. the beatles debuted @ #10 with 'free as a bird' and even the uk group take that had a top 10 hit 'back for good' that's @ #19 for this wk. but see there's been a number of years where the hot 100 and the xmas hot 100 would be separate: https://www.billboard.c*m/charts/hot-100/1995-12-30/

are you effing kidding me...i was OBSESSED with bsb back in the day :D them and tlc are my all time fave groups i've seen on the hot 100 chart all these years. one direction would be right behind them. but you should've seen bsb in the hot 100 top 10 back in the day ;). my all time fave year being a hot 100 fan was when bsb's debut album would be on the charts...their album kept getting bigger and bigger and they had hit after hit. this would've been in 1997-98.

and thanks mate, i'll check out that lizzo track ;)

Xmas takeover! Strange the Pogues seem to have fallen out of sync with the big 2 classics in recent times, and I'm a bit baffled how Brenda Lee and that particular song by Buble are now festive top 10 staples - they just seem odd choices. Not sure I've ever seen a chart with so many multiple versions of the same tracks before. Waiting for the inevitable rule change that they will bring in to stop Mariah being top every year.

This annual Christmas chart Hi-Jack is just silly now. Surely it's time we had a separate Festive Chart that runs from the last week in November until the first week in January covering the Holiday period? It could sit there proudly on its own beside the regular chart. Already this week 49 of the 100 are Christmas hits. I think most people would agree it's time to consider a change that represents the changing nature of our listening habits

I'm so sad to see Anti-Hero dethroned, but now it has, I wish it was by RAYE because it's so nice to see her receiving success as an independent artist. I'm rooting for RAYE for the next two week (Escapism., what a tune!) and then I hope Wham! can get another week, then maybe Taylor again?

God I hate ACR. What's the point of publishing a most popular songs ranking when you're not actually sorting by popularity? There's absolutely no reason it took this long for an annoying song like Anti-Hero to be toppled.

When they enforced the ACR and 3-song rule, it made the charts so inaccurate even when it comes to the Christmas songs where OCC ruined the chart even more at the time when those rules were already enforced. That is my whole opinion on the current charts and the previous ones.

Yeah that's what I mean. It's all irrelevant now. There were arguments for years about including Airplay from Radio Stations in the charts but this is basically the same thing.

theres a seperate sales chart now. we're not in 2010 anymore keep up

Always thought the same, I know that sales are not strong enough to rule a chart, but those years of charts that every artist could have a song inside the top 100 until streaming arrived, were golden

avatar

Smith Smyth

It's kind of sad though that the actual chart is so distorted with what people stream. On paper, sales figures for example for Mariah Carey's Christmas standard are so much affected by including streams because the song that originally held it off the number one spot actually SOLD shed loads more, East 17 Stay Another Day, but streaming has eclipsed it. It's just a moan, I know I can't change it. It's like the way they claimed that song from Portugal got the highest score ever in Eurovision when they had doubled the available points that year. All relative and just me having a moan. Ha ha. Anyway, Happy Christmas and I hope Raye gets the Christmas number one!

With the festive invasion in full swing, am I the only one who would welcome a little belated recognition for The Kinks' 'Father Christmas' or Chris Squire & Alan White's 'Run with the fox', or failing that a reappearance for Quo's 'It's Christmas time', The Greedies' 'A merry jingle', or Jethro Tull's 'Ring out solstice bells'? OK, I may be older than most of the other posters on here, but we do have Bing, Dean and Andy back in the chart as well...

Honestly guys, if The Sidemen go Top 40, I have no idea what tier I’m going to rank them in! 😭

‘This Or That’ is probably the biggest example of “so bad it’s good” for a song I’ve heard all year.

I’ll just have to create a “idk help” tier lmao!

You can literally set it up on Excel! 😊

It’s just a case of entering the Top 40 from best to worst, then colouring in each cell (using the “Format Painter”) with your opinion of it. :)

I don’t blame him! Twitter is so toxic & it’s probably a boycott against Elon Musk since he wants to monetise it. :/

i heard jim carrey also left, i'm still there though. so sorry on what's happening to nick carter of the backstreet boys. bull**** story in my honest opinion.

really?? does he have any current top 10 singles over there?

avatar

Sunshine Gal

well i'm def. obsessed with this current allegation against nick carter of the backstreet boys...i believe he's innocent. that chick from a few yrs back, in my honest opinion is behind all this.

avatar

Piran

1

What's he being accused of? I've not heard this story. 🤔

avatar

Piran

I don't think he charted a single from the album in the Top 100! 😳

Sunshine Gal

hey what's up mate! i'll be on this friday's article on sat. i wanna wish everyone a merry xmas. forgive me for asking, were we talking about louis? i was so surprised to see his new album enter @ #5 on the billboard 200 chart.

avatar

Sunshine Gal

1

oh i'm on the riaa site and lil' wayne's #1 hit 'lollipop' just went diamond! i remember it @ #1 back in the day...gonna be 15 yrs next year! dang! LOL! i bought his cd, he has a great track with robin thicke on it. also mariah's xmas song just went 12x plat.! i had that cd back then. i think our 1D mates deserve some new riaa updates ;) https://www.riaa.c*m/gold-platinum/

avatar

Sunshine Gal

1

he's being accused of se*ual assault (don't know if i can write that first word LOL!) by a woman who claims this happened during their black and blue tour in tacoma washington back in 2001. but there's some holes in her story ;). her and remember that first accuser i told you about years back? she was a former pop star who also accused him of , but her case was dismissed about 5 yrs ago? well they're both giving interviews in other countries and this current accuser gave a press conference. so she says that she met nick during a meet and greet autograph line and he took her on a tourbus and se*ually assaulted her.

the problem: bsb DIDN'T have autograph events during this tour! this was when they were very big and they were rushed to their tourbuses and sped away with police escorts to their hotel rooms. extra security and even police would be held back to keep the crowds away from their buses. i believe that 1st accuser is behind all this and is making this current woman say these things. as a result this current accuser is suing nick for about $35k. also 1 of nick's younger sisters call out this woman cuz in reality this woman was chasing nick and his sister was trying to keep her away from him: https://www.youtube.c*m/watch?v=URf_5Vy8mos

I don't think you can write the first word here! 😅

hey merry xmas mate! was there a hot 100 article this past wk? oh i've been sick these past few days, i even had to call out of work this last friday. i may have to call out tomorrow too. oh i have a paid wk off of work coming up in mid jan. but i'll go on the occ article in a sec.

avatar

Sunshine Gal

1

yeah i didn't think i could LOL! but a lot of holes in her story...not only that 1 of nick's younger sister tried to keep this woman away from her brother cuz she was chasing after nick cuz he was rich! i mean, if he raped you why do you wanna be his girlfriend for?

avatar

Sunshine Gal

hey mate i took the day off work today, lemme know when the hot 100 article will post up. i'll be taking a lunch break soon, but should be back online in case the article isn't up yet.

avatar

Piran

If there's a Hot 100 article this week, then it'll post tomorrow morning for you because of the Christmas holiday!

I don't think there will be though since there's not expected to be any significant change at or near the top. :/

I think there was an article last week, but nobody commented on it! 😩

Sunshine Gal

hey mate, well doing some finances and enjoying my pot of coffee LOL! i'll double check for a headline planet article, but i'll be on the current occ article...THANKS so much for telling me about flo. i never knew who they were! they are really good! their style is so much like the 90s r & b female groups we had over here but they really do have their own distinct sound. can't wait to chat with everyone on occ about them :))))))

avatar

Sunshine Gal

oh mate, shared a story about lisa presley on the occ article on her. i think i've told you about it in the past.

avatar

Piran

You're welcome! I knew they'd be right up your alley from the second I heard them. :)

avatar

Sunshine Gal

1

are you on the current occ singles page? don't know if you like 90s r & b, but i put up 2 throwbacks list from that era. and yes, i'm really digging flo! i think simon cowell can make them just as big if not bigger than our 1D mates.

Sunshine Gal

oh any recent hot 100 articles on headline planet? i couldn't find one

i'm just browsing thru some of the articles on here...reminds me of billboard when we could comment right on the articles.

I miss those days too, which is why I comment more on the YouTube videos for the Hot 100. :)

oh yeah i forgot about youtube LOL!

ok thanks mate, sorry i wasn't on yesterday...i was cleaning my house and took about a 2 hr nap LOL! but i'll be on the official charts in just a few min.

hey that top 10 vid is really good! gives me a check out the actual songs from the top 10...thanks mate! oh you should have no problem knowing which one is me :P

avatar

Sunshine Gal

oh and mate, the tay-tay one is pretty good ;). i really like the weekend 'die for you'...not really feeling the drake one.

avatar

Piran

1

Yeah, I already caught your reply there, haha. :)

I also like how you can hear snippets of the songs. You couldn’t do that with the articles! 😅

avatar

Piran

1

You like ‘Anti-Hero’? That’s amazing to hear! 😊

avatar

Sunshine Gal

1

yeah i haven't heard that song yet until you sent me that vid. i really don't have a problem with her doing well on the charts, but it does sting that a record feat that took a long time to achieve can be broken so quickly. that's why i still think billboard should separate streaming and pre-streaming feats. or @ least quit saying 'so & so' surpassed pre-streaming artists.

avatar

Sunshine Gal

1

yeah that's very clever ;). back in the day before the billboard launched their website over here mtv would do a 'top 10 sneak peek' and do the same thing. a quick re-cap of the top 10 singles for that wk.

With Lizzo making Top 40, there's our first Amazon Christmas exclusive in the Top 40 this year, I think Maisie Peters, Sam Ryder and maybe Priya Ragu will join her by the end of the year with their exclusives too

i quite like maisie's xmas song but im BEGGINGGGG please don't let it be her top 40 breakthrough she has sooooooo many better songs that deserve top 40 over a mediocre xmas song

Still wonder how Alexa does it though

Via streaming on Amazon music app

C

mainly cos everytime someone says 'alexa play me...' it contributes. soptify, apple etc dont have this feature

Hmm... Good thought

avatar

Rob Parkinson

Being £2 cheaper than spotify or apple music if you have a prime account? Has all the same songs the other streaming platforms have plus their own exclusives. Saving money in the current economy is definitely a plus point

David N'jama

hmm. that makes sense.

J

Jovian

Am I right in thinking that 'Merry Christmas' is not on ACR, in which case it would be the only returning Xmas song that isn't.... which would, in turn, explain why it's charting so high against relatively mediocre streaming numbers in comparison to the regular Xmas tracks

C

Conor

2

that is correct!

C

CJtheDJ

1

Impressive that it's doing as well as Anti-Hero is though!

C

it is very high on amazon xmas playlist which is helping, cos amazon always has more influence at xmas

Aqua

It’ll be on acr on dec 30th ain’t I correct

C

Conor

1

i don't know if in this case it'll be on acr then or until the 3 year mark cos acr is if its been declining for 3 consecutive weeks, and it won't be able to do that so it might not go to permenant acr until its 3 years old

avatar

rayever

nope, it’s only a year old this year unless it declines then it could

Wel it won’t pass aiwfciy and last Christmas and we all know what happened to super freaky girl which got acr’s after one week of decline

Yeah Amazon is way bigger than people think, it's just its audience is far more varied listening to a huge variety of different tastes as opposed to listening to more popular music but Xmas more people tend to listen to Xmas music or playlists

While it’s to be expected with Christmas, it’s sad to see both ‘Lift Me Up’ (the irony here!) & ’10:35’ both dropping as much as they have. :/

I hope they both get a big resurgence in the New Year though.

Five weeks in the Top 40 is way too short for a Rihanna comeback as good as this & Tate McRae is just an absolute superstar! ❤️

avatar

10:35 is going to definitely have a huge resurgence, especially since it’s already gone top 40!!

The Weeknd had a really good week here! 😎

‘Creepin’ debuting in the Top 20 is cool as I actually think he nailed the Mario Winans & The Fugees samples, also 21 Savage’s flow is kind of impressive here. :)

Also didn’t expect ‘Die For You’ to survive the Christmas onslaught, let alone not even fall. If ‘Another Love’ can enter the Top 40 several years after it came out, then hopefully this can too!

Edit: My mistake for thinking 'Another Love' was on ACR, thank you guys, haha.

Not gonna lie, I feel a bit bad for all the upcoming artists around this time of year! 😔

With this many Christmas songs in the chart at the same time, it makes it way more difficult than normal for a lot of rising stars to get their first charting opportunity, which is already a tough enough task for them anyway. :/

Hoping to see a lot of new names break through & take over the charts in 2023, ideally Piri & Tommy or FLO!

avatar

🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜

2

i’m really hoping for those artists to break through, piri & tommy are amazing in general and flo just won the rising star award so they should chart soon

there’s also some other artists that i want to see in the charts next year. the list is too long tho

Absolutely! Honourable mentions to Baby Queen & Dylan too, but like you said, I could go on all night if I wanted to, haha. :)

Holy words you've said brother!!! So many efforts for many artists to produce and release a record and they can't even have an entry into the top 100

avatar

Piran

Exactly! I feel sorry for any chart-watchers where Christmas music isn't their thing. :/

Even the Christmas #1 battle could be dominating by LadBaby for a fifth consecutive year, so even that feels like it's lost its excitement!

avatar

Damián

1

Exactly, me , being foreign, don't even know who this Ladbaby is? But it's seem he releases a single Christmas after Christmas and its number 1, kinda joke

avatar

Piran

2

LadBaby’s been Christmas Number One here every year since 2018, but it’s always been with a song about sausage rolls! 😩

He’s raising money for food banks at least, but musically, you’re definitely not missing much. :/

Omggg!!! The charity cause is fine, but a number 1 in a row since 2018 its way too much

Their songs aren't even funny, and the sausage roll gimmick gets dry very quickly.

Looks like we would’ve had a new #1 tonight even without Christmas, since RAYE now has the biggest non-festive song in the chart!

As it is, she still managed the runner-up position & a new personal best overtaking ‘Bed’ last year, so absolutely delighted for her entering the Top 2 for the first time in her career. :)

Hope ‘Escapism’ can go all the way to the top in the New Year (or maybe even sooner?) – she really deserves this! 🤞

avatar

Piran

I don’t really care for the Christmas takeover as much as I used to, but I’m delighted to see Kelly’s ‘Underneath The Tree’ close to a new peak & looking likely to enter the Top 10 for the first time – absolutely love her voice! 😍
