I mentioned there would be a slight shock in the first chart of the year, and it is the fact that, in spite of it being a chart for 6 January, there is no change at #1 this week. Whilst all the other Christmas songs in the chart have tumbled, we see Prosecco Socialist hold their position on top for at least one more week.

Although Ray Davies held the top position on the chart of 9th January 2010 with "Postcard From London", that song mentioned Christmas in the lyrics but not in the title and wasn't really totally a Christmas song. In some ways the current #1 is also not so much about Christmas but about people who cannot stay in relationships, but clearly has a lot of Christmas references in it, including the title. In any case it is showing its worthiness as a #1 and I'll see how I rank it among my Christmas songs in the future, but I think this has comparisons with Fairytale Of New York. (Well obviously in its lyrical theme of bad relationships).

The second highest new entry this week is by Eminem with Beyonce. Feels strange that Eminem had his first UK hit about 19 years ago and Beyonce one year earlier as part of Destiny's Child. That makes them about as modern as Cliff Richard was to the chart when I started compiling. On my chart Eminem's great chart success was happening 17 years ago. However he's mostly failed to make any impact at all. Aside from the enormous smash "Stan" and the latest entry, his only other chart appearance was in 2004 when D12 reached #15 with "My Band".

[Earl Purple]

I got the information from their facebook page that Yearning's lead singer Maddie turned 21 on 16th January therefore she was 16 when "Everybody Knows (I'm Still In Love With You) was in my chart. Apparently she joined the band at the age of 14.

There are two girls younger than that in my chart now. Dani Cohn and Mia Morris are both only 13.

For those who like recommendations, for Milliways I think Exiled is more of your style of music (currently #3) and for TheThorne Woodes (currently #12)

This week will have a video playlist and it looks like there will be a lot of songs from the last video playlist on it. (I did make one for 3 weeks ago but not sure I posted the link). Not sure if it should include Woodes who climb back up this week but are still below their peak position.

Eminem moves up to #2 - more of a surprise is why that didn't climb faster as it clearly stood out on the playlist it was on. Still it entered at 24 and has climbed to 11, 6, 2 and may be #1 next week. The lead singer of the Yearning was only 4 years old when Eminem had his only #1 so far on this chart. While he has been #1 on the chart before, Beyonce has never even come close.
Both of them also recorded with Ed Sheeran of course. His single goes down this week. However it would have been strange if Eminem had been #1 in the UK and NM chart at the same time but with different songs. "Walk On Water" peaked at #7 in the UK. If it tops this chart it will be the biggest UK hit to do so since 5 Seconds Of Summer had a week at #1 in 2014 with "Don't Stop", which also peaked in the UK chart at #2.

And of course this is a week for a video playlist, 20180128_realvideos
