Last Christmas overtakes AIWFCIY on Spotify Global chart. What happened?

[TayDuaStan]

 

The GP finally has taste 

[toast]

Thought people were giving the Ariana version the attention it deserves

 

[JoAddams]

I don't know them 

[tost1]

END HA PLEASEEEE

[Space Cowboy]

It's the better song 

[DemDam92]

Switch to 1st December on Sunday : people don't party but stay home and feel depressed. So they stream LC more than the party hit All I want.

 

 

[Alaska.]

What happened is that Kesha's Holiday Road cover is rising in streams and the GP is starting to focus on that a little more

The soaring popularity of the cvnty version brought some attention back to the original too I presume

Y'all people need to do more with your lives. Last Christmas is one of the most popular Christmas songs of all time and considering how overplayed AIWFCIY, this was bound to happen. 

Someday, even Santa Tell Me will be #1 and then people will go back to AIWFCIY again 

[Saddy]

Deserved 

[ChooseyLover]

Wham! has the best Christmas song of all time. 
 

And Carly Rae Jepsen is the only pop star who did a decent cover of it, but we're not ready for that conversation...

[Burn]

I hope both songs manage to get some weeks at #1 this year, even if LC only gets one week. Both are deserving classics. 

[PoisonPill]

I've been ready for George to finally overtake Mariah and Brenda. In a way it's more interesting and listenable (outside of Xmas season) than all the others, and as a mid-tempo synth ballad it stands out among all the other Christmas classics which borrow from the same bombastic '50s-60s sound. 

 

The December charts will be a lot more exciting/less boring if it's actually a toss-up who will be #1 each week

[Trent W]

I think the other Christmas classics will start rising and taking the top spot one by one

 

Mariah is overplayed and will probably hit #1 again for a couple weeks

 

But lbr the overexposure of her and the track has been insane this season in the last few years

[katara]

Wow it's even about to overatke in the US where LC was always much weaker than All I Want

[dreampop]

yes George snatch that 11th number one 

[Mordecai]

Maybe I'm just the grinch but how do people listen to Christmas music a full on month before it happens  I play them a couple of days before max

[Alongoria13]

It has a more whimsical vibe, not as tiring as Mariah's IMO (mostly due to overexposure, I heard it twice today in 2 hours lmao)

[manuelalex9810]

It would be so nice for Last Christmas to get that number one this year.

Oh sis, this one is iconic but for all the wrong reasons... She wrapped it up and sent it in a cunty way though. Ahead of its time.

Why is she giving Britney for a Christmas song? 

[Rigalo]

I think All I Want For Xmas is just a little played out the last few years so people are over it
