DJ PLAY A CHRISTMAS SONG
by CHER
DJ Play A Christmas Song is the lead single taken from Cher's first ever Christmas album. In December 2023 it vaulted into the Official UK Top 40 at Number 20, landing Cher in the history books as the first female artist to achieve a Top 40 hit with new material on the Official Singles Chart across seven consecutive decades. At the same time, at 77 years, 7 months old, Cher also became the oldest solo female performer ever to secure a Top 40 on the Official Singles Chart with the track.
The three-and-a-half minute song is the opener to Cher's 13-track festive album, Christmas, an album produced by long-time collaborator Mark Taylor (Believe) and featuring appearances from Stevie Wonder, Tyga, Cyndi Lauper, Michael Bublé and more.
Speaking to Billboard about the release, Cher said “I had no intention of doing a Christmas album, but [Warner Records] said, ‘Why don’t you do a Christmas album, Cher?’ and I said if I can do my version I’ll do it, and they were very pleasant.”
