The Metro's definitive ranking of the top 20 Christmas number ones of all time
It really is the most wonderful time of the year: Christmas number one day!
Can’t get past a truly novelty number one though, especially when it’s marketed to those who still think Santa exists. I can’t help but think it got to the top spot the same way Baby Shark dominated the charts: mums and dads without parental locks on their phone and credit cards.
Seems that while winning X Factor appeared to promise you a number one this time of year, it didn’t promise you stickability and the song was only on the charts for a moment like this. Just kidding, it was number one for, like, four weeks.Ah, yes, what the pack of Celebrations taunts me with from the pantry come 10am on December 25.
AKA what I say to the last bottle of Baileys as Christmas draws to a close for another year. Honestly, this 1992 hit is nothing about Christmas, everything about the feelings. Arguably one of the best songs ever, so was always going to score high here.Nothing like a spot of deforestation, slain elephants and war to get you in the festive spirit.
