All I Want For Christmas is You is finally No.1 in the UK after 26 years!

Where were you when you heard the news :disco:
 
This makes me happier than it ever really should.

I have the CD single at my folks house somewhere.
 
Where does this sit on the list of time between first charting and hitting no.1?

At 103 weeks surely top for most weeks to get to no.1.
 
I think Amarillo took 35 years.

PJ and Duncan 24 years?

I'm sure there were a few in the 1980s.

I'm sure there are others that took longer in terms of how old they were (Reet Petite for one), but I doubt any has taken as long in terms of weeks on chart before hitting #1.
 
Yes I think Reet Petite had the longest wait (29 years), this is 2nd, which given context makes me feel prehistoric.
 
Anyway this is great news so pleased

now can we all start streaming Oh Santa
