Back in the UK singles charts for the 26th time!

At time of writing, it is a new / re-entry at #48

Anything below 40 doesn’t seem to count these days as being in the charts,

But here a little fact about the song.


By far and away the biggest earners in terms of royalties, Slade are estimated to take home as much as half a million pounds each year for their 1973 hit single 'Merry Xmas Everybody.

Don’t need another hit Could live on just that one song alone .

No idea how many times this song has been featured in this thread, but...

...48 years after it was first released, 'Merry Xmas Everybody' by Slade finally gets an official video


The video is not particularly good, but it captures the bands sense of humour and (if you know the members of the group) the caricatures are fun!

That's why Dave Hill used to stay in the Cotswold's in January for almost a month spending all that money.

I used to work in a hotel there, not a very friendly guy

Surprising how many people aren’t, like or dislike certain people that’s why I admire likes of
Keanu reeves amount of good things you hear about him and kindness,
Bon Jovi who has a soup kitchen for the homeless and he works behind the scenes like washing dishes,
Dave Grohl knows his loyalties and wouldn’t be where he is if wasn’t for his fans,
Like when he broke his leg he just carried on singing instead of going to hospital and still did the rest of the tour while sitting down with his leg up, or the time he allowed an 18yr old on stage and let them play the drums.

It's is nice to hear famous people being nice and not letting fame go to their head, instead of hearing famous people being rude ignorant arrogant etc, and having the phrase do you know who I am?.
