And like that, we're almost at the end of another year! Next week's chart is all to play for as it is my Christmas chart, and the final one for the year! The Pretenders are in a pole position to grab the christmas #1 as they climb to the top spot this week with their Christmas tune 2000 Miles! Christmas Tree Farm reaches a new peak of #2, whilst The Pogues return to #3 with Fairytale of New York. Can they replicate last years success story and get Christmas #1 2 years running?! Thats So True holds its ground amidst the festive chaos, at #4, while Santa Tell Me climbs to a new peak of #5, assisted by an anniversary cd!
RAYE climbs massively, up to #6 with her gorgeous cover of O Holy Night, whilst Bleachers' Merry Christmas, Please Don't Call is up to #7. Perrie and Mariah slip down, and Maisie Peters climbs up with their festive offerings!
Lower down, plenty more christmas returnees, Plus Oscar Winning Tears is back in following RAYE's stellar performance at the Strictly final! and its all to play for next week, who will take the christmas #1! Previous Christmas #1's are: All Too Well (10 Minute Version) [2021], So Much Wine [2022] and Fairytale of New York [2023], so who will be joining the hall of fame?!
