[Wonderland]

It's that time of the year again! Could 2023 finally be the year that Brenda Lee makes it to the top of the charts?

 

 

Lyrics:

Spoiler

Rockin' around the Christmas tree
At the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop
Rockin' around the Christmas tree
Let the Christmas spirit ring
Later we'll have some pumpkin pie
And we'll do some caroling.

 

You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear
Voices singing, let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Rockin' around the Christmas tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone dancin' merrily
In the new old-fashioned way.

 

You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear
Voices singing, let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Rockin' around the Christmas tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone dancin' merrily
In the new old-fashioned way.

The fact that holiday music is already in the top 10

[Alexz]

I want her to hit #1 but I don’t want Mariah to lose her spot.

[Blanket]

If she can have just one week at #1 I think she would be the oldest chart topper in history

Kind of wild to think that she would be the oldest Hot 100 #1 artist in history BUT if you base it on the fact that she was only a 13-year-old when the song was recorded, she'd tie Stevie Wonder as the youngest voice to ever top the Hot 100

Brenda jumps Mariah for the first time of the season on Spotify today

Yeah it's literally gross. People are out of control. Need to wait to listen to Christmas music until Thanksgiving evening, at least.

Ok this record is WILD

Now the estimate is up to #8 & Lee is doing quite a bit of work this year. She sang to her fellow passengers on a SW Airlines flight Wednesday. Look up the video on Pop Crave X/Twitter feed. Lee is also doing something on her YT channel this coming week.
