It's taken them five weeks but The Human League take control of our chart this week, knocking Duran Duran from the top spot after a three week run there. Madness climb a place to number two meaning Duran Duran have to settle for third place. The highest new entry comes from David Essex with one of my top 'xmas' tracks and one that deserves more airings at Christmas in my opinion. There are other new tunes from Abba and The Maisonettes among others in a slightly quieter week for new entries.

I don't care if I've no street cred - I love The Birdie Song! I wouldn't worry about having no street cred. Having cloth ears is probably a bigger problem.

In the festive spirit the chart is increased by one position this week. The chart is being extended to allow me to enter songs I didn't chart at the time, and this is often songs that missed the top 40 or I didn't quite see the attraction in it back then that I do now. Thus why the chart has an unusual number of places in it.
I can't remember when I first heard Christmas Wrappin', and that it was only probably at some point when I looked it up that I saw it had missed the top 40 in 1982. That hasn't stopped it becoming a classic and regularly still gets played on the radio.
The Waitresses was an American pop-rock group who were somewhat "alternative" at the time, and recorded a lot more songs than this.
Also in the festive spirit, Cliff Richard gets a high entry and Shaky, whose was often likened to Elvis, had a hit with an Elvis cover.
The only one that isn't a Christmas song is the Maisonettes, a new group led by the former liead singer of City Boy who had a hit in 1978 with 5-7-0-5.
