Still Waters Posted December 22, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Once, before downloads and before TV talent shows cynically timed to finish in mid-December, being the Christmas Number One really mattered. Tens of thousands of vinyl singles were bought in the week before Christmas and the battle to be Number One on the big day took in all strata of society. https://news.sky.com/story/sky-views-the-most-cherished-christmas-anthem-of-them-all-11180467 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taun Posted December 22, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I always thought Bing Crosby's "White Christmas" was not only the top Christmas single of all time, but also the top single of any type all time.. perhaps that's only in the US... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly famous and you're probably right. The article is very much UK orientated and I did consider posting it in the UK & Europe forum but decided it fitted best here under 'music'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Commander Travis Posted December 22, 2017 #4 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Before I look, is it Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas is you"? If it is I may commit physical violence to someone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Commander Travis Posted December 22, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 22, 2017 (edited) Oh God no, tell me it's not "Well here it is. Merry Christmas everybody" or even worse, if that's possible, "I wish it could be Christmas everyday, when the kids start singing and the band begins to play-y-ay"? If it is I'm going to shoot myself. Edited December 22, 2017 by Manfred von Dreidecker 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Commander Travis Posted December 22, 2017 #6 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I'm going to shoot myself then. Goodbye everybody. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
