It completely took me by surorise that Elton & Ed went back to the top!!! but, well, it is still Christmas time...and also I got surprised that the alphabet song sunk so down!!! 😖

How can Ladbaby be number 1 last week then sink without trace this week? Looks like no one streamed it on Christmas day 🙄

avatar

⁉️

Charity songs always do that though, even before streaming?

Also, it’s still in the Top 40, it held up decently unfortunately.

DK

So the top 13 singles are all Christmas songs plus a lot more inside the top 40. Has anyone noticed Christmas was over a week ago? Oh wait, sorry I forgot the way streaming affects chart positions is so accurate isnt it? To make this more accurate we would need a chart that updates daily. This wouldn't have happened in the days of sales and physical formats, because people would have already bought their Christmas singles the week before Christmas so they got the songs to play over Christmas. Now we get the delayed affect because everyone streamed Christmas songs during Christmas day so we get the delayed affect a week too late. It must have been embarrassing for Radio 1 last night having to do the chart run down. I couldn't bare to listen to it personally. Sadly this is the future of our charts. Halloween and Christmas songs riding high in the charts a week too late. Unless the chart company does something about it we are stuck with it. Happy New Year!

It just disappoints me the way the charts are these days. It wouldn't surprise me if next week all the songs that have been pushed out due to the influx of xmas songs will all be re entries in the chart on Friday. We need new material to keep coming to keep the charts vibrant and fresh. The charts are so stagnant now.

michael everyone’s opinion is valid here. it’s just that this comments section nowadays is just full of children who don’t care for other people or their opinion, and have no appreciation towards real music, which explains why there’s so many fans of ded sheeran and the mid laroi here. it’s become an absolute joke. but dw ima always respect your opinion no matter what ✊

ever heard of tracking data? i already explained this to you when halloween songs re entered. christmas day was during the tracking week and christmas songs were all people listened to on that day, and plus the streaming figures were so high that they just overshadowed other songs streamed for the rest of the week (sorry if i worded this poorly lol). happy new year btw!

That's the most Christmassy chart in my 50 year living memory! the entire top 10 (top 13 for purists) is basically a Christmas playlist! It'll be next week's 'clearout' that i will find most amusing and interesting. Happy New Year to all!

It was fascinating to watch! I really love The Waitresses single Christmas Wrapping, but my favourite is December Will Be Magic Again by Kate Bush and really can't understand why that doesn't reappear in the chart every year!

Some incredible stats to glean from this weeks chart. One that may not be obvious though, is that after over 40 years and 170 chart weeks Chris Rea equals his Singles career height and only 2nd week in the top 10. He has never had a single in the top 9!

I have a feeling it will! There were only seven non-festive songs in this week's Top 40 anyway, so it's chance are looking fairly good for it to re-enter the region next week, haha. :)

Luis Gerardo Amador

1

I think "Good for you" is growing back to the top 40...so I think with "I wish", "Time after time", "Wherer are you now, "Heat Waves", and "Love Nwantiti" they all will be back to the top 20 some, and top 40 others...and Ed Sheeran will keep his 3 or 4 songs as well as Adele with the 3 that she already has...plus I have a feeling that Diana Ross will enter with at least 2 of her new songs: "The Answer's Always Love" and "I still believe", or "Count on me"

peru wont count cos ed isnt the first artist

peru is credited to Fireboy DML so I think that'll help him get past the 3 song rule, same as how elton with Merry Christmas

Ah, I thought he was a co-lead artist on it! At least that what OCC says, haha. :)

I think they'll find away around the rule to accomodate for him having more sings in the chart haha

yeah wasnt ksi credited as co-lead on Don't play and still had 4 songs in the top 40?

Yeah, because I think he was featured on one of those songs! :P

i think it was Anne-Marie/KSI/DFA on it which helped him get around it, and i think it'll be the same for ed as Fireboy DML is credited before Ed on Peru

Same with JB back in the summer! :P

yeah. speaking of JB they did the same thing with Peru as with Despacito, crediting JB and now Ed when normally they don't credit the remix artist

Even if he was a co-lead, the OCC only count the first artist listed towards the 3 songs rule. :)

I wonder if 'Chasing Cars' will reappear? That seemed to be around forever!

Despite it being the most played song on the radio so far this century, it rarely appears in the singles chart nowadays thanks to ACR, so I doubt it’ll be re-entering in next week’s chart. :/

Really? So ‘Stay’ wouldn’t have counted towards JB’s tally? :O

I guess Gyalis will return to the top with ABDCEFU...and also Adele with Esay on me will be back to the top ten or at least the top 20 and I predict that the OCC will reconsider their 3 song rule to 4...it already happened with Elton this Chriistmas, he had 4 songs in the 100 singles list...

The three songs rule doesn’t seem to have changed at all, but you’re definitely right about ‘ABCDEFU’ as it was #1 in the First Look chart last night. :)

, I was convinced that ‘Last Christmas’ was going to be #1 tonight. :/

Easily would’ve been with that poxy three letter rule beginning with A which I will not name!

I wish it was, how cool would it be for Last Christmas to start and end the year at #1!!!

I've looked into this & I honestly think it would be the first time that's ever happened in the singles chart! :O
