Twitter-er	Yes - Cowell has stolen Christmas! Boring. We don't need another X Factor! Cliff for number one - rename the festive pop season 'Cliffmas'.
mikemacca	Charity records killed christmas as well as the charts. They should be exempt
Dominic Dee	He hasn't killed Christmas, just the rendered the Christmas singles chart a waste of time. He couldn't even do that if the public didn't flock like sheep to buy copies of the X-Factor single.
The Cat	Yes .. where is Sir Cliff when you need him? Some are tipping The Muppets version of Bohemian Rhapsody to steal the top spot from Mr Cowell this year. It is amazingly awful but we've got to the stage where we'll plug for anything other than X-Factor for Christmas. It might just take a silly novelty song to save us. I wonder what the most popular release will be this Christmas. I'm pretty sure we'll never know because it'll be popular through file sharing rather than through sales. A lot of kids couldn't even name the current official top ten. To them the charts are irrelevant. They just like to listen to music and don't really care about the packaging. It's all changed since I were a lad.
BR	The bookies and HMV seem to think so........... www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/x...stmas-tradition.html I have to admit I miss the old race to Christmas number one. Many artists wont release now a big single because the result is guaranteed by the TV coverage that X Factor has over any rival. As I mentioned before - we need TWO charts. So we can get a real Christmas Number One again !
