Festive favourites re-enter The UK Chart 🎄🎵
We've switched on Christmas!
It's been less than two weeks since we switched on Christmas here at Northsound 1, with an hour of festive tunes to get you in the mood, and we've even treated you to a full weekend of festive throwbacks. So, it's no surprise that some of the Christmas tunes are making their way back into the The UK Chart Show on Sunday.
It might not even been December yet, but with many people putting up their Christmas decorations, it's perhaps no surprise that the likes of Mariah Carey, The Pogues featuring Kirsty MacColl and Wham! have made their way back into this year's chart.
Mariah's catchy classic 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' is currently the highest Christmas song, while The Pogues and Wham! have also re-entered the The UK Chart Show.
