Kylie Minogue – The Christmas King of Great Britain: New Song in the Top 1
Automatic translation. Read the Russian original
The song "Xmas" by Australian pop star Kylie Minogue became the most popular Christmas single in the UK, topping the official chart. This is Minogue’s eighth single to reach number one on the UK chart, making her a unique artist – the first woman to achieve it in four different decades (after Elvis Presley, Elton John and Queen). The success of "Xmas," which is exclusive to Amazon Music and unavailable on many streaming platforms, was driven by strong fan support and strong demand for physical copies (CD and vinyl), which became popular after #16 on the charts a week ago. In the Christmas chart "Last Christmas" Wham! Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas Is You" came in third. Along with this, Mariah Carey's song continues to hold the record, being the most durable on the first line of the American Billboard Hot 100, having spent there for 20 weeks.
