Overview

The rundown to the Christmas number one single is always an event, with pundits, producers and the artists themselves waiting to see what the British music-buying public have chosen to dominate the festive season. From the traditional balladry of Al Martino's Here In My Heart way back in 1952, to the almost poetic justice of Last Christmas finally making the festive top spot for Wham! for the first time in some four decades, this is the ultimate guide to those number one singles. The stories of those songs reflect eras of change, sometimes upbeat and ligh-hearted, at other times grim and difficult. Through wide-ranging research and a feel for historical context, the author weaves a comprehensive tapestry of the people and sounds that dominated our lives during holiday seasons past in the ultimate guide to the Christmas number one.
