Christmas Number One singles...
Found this on youtube and it's an interesting carousel of all Christmas number one songs from 1952 - present.
The Beatles, Sir Cliff, The Spice Girl's and Band-aid all had 3 Xmas hits. Queen appear twice with Bohemian Rhapsody (presumably the second time on Freddie Mercury's death) I knew most of the songs in the 50's, 60's and 70's. Those beyond 2000 i only knew Robbie Williams and Rage against the Machine -the others I think are likely to be X-factor winners which I haven't heard. Worth spending the time to listen to and remember your favourites...

Re: Christmas Number One singles...
Bob the builder and other such songs are pretty pathetic - though I personally love :
Benny Hill's "Ernie" Classic commedy at it's bets - sad to think how he ended his life...

Christmas hasn't been the same since Cliff's last number one.

Re: Christmas Number One singles...
I have just heard on the radio that Sir Cliff's 2012 calendar is outselling all others.

Still, it guarantees one pensioner a decent Christmas bonus, I suppose.
