No, not really. It's slowing down every year. As are all the Christmas songs.

On November 28th 2007, it was already at #13 and broke in the Top 10 on the 1st December. Not sure about last year, but am sure it was Top 30 by December.

[Johnkm]

Ahh, I didn't realise that.

Payday and Christmas party season kicking in, I reckon. I'd like to see Susan Boyle topple allcomers, though.

[rural juror]

I doubt she will, half a million people buying the album is half a million that don't need to buy silent night

[lolly]

If Cowell got her on the Christmas X Factor show she might

I'm pretty sure the Pogues top 30's added together would trump her.

I'm pretty sure the Pogues top 30's added together would trump her.

They are indeed above her according to the latest midweeks
