Just got the occ app... is this any different from in browser at all??
Piran
How have I been commenting here for nearly nine years and only now realising they have an app? 😭
M

I got it as a pop up 😅
predigitalwasbest
i've been quite poorly since Monday of this week so Christmas was positively bleak for me (though i'm aware others suffer way more and regularly).
Similar to last week, i've filtered out my 10 most recently played at random tracks. this time they all contain the word 'HAPPY' - which i wish for all of you from now and beyond : )
I think it's noteworthy to mention that only 1 Christmas record is falling this week (do correct me if i'm wrong) - that being 'Freezing this Christmas' by Sir Starmer and the granny freezers.
1: Happy PHARRELL WILLIAMS
2: Happy talk CAPTAIN SENSIBLE
3: Happy Xmas (war is over) MARK RONSON and MILEY CYRUS
4: My happy ending AVRIL LAVIGNE
5: Happy hour THE HOUSEMARTINS
6: Only happy when it rains GARBAGE
7: Sing a happy song THE O' JAYS
8: Happy ending MIKA
9: Happy nation ACE OF BASE

Christmas on top !!
macie
I haven’t heard the song yet, but very happy to see Kesha get her first top 40 hit of the decade (wish JOYRIDE was a hit though)
macie
so so happy to see Laufey with THREE songs in the top 40 this week!! She absolutely deserves all this success and I hope it can translate to her non-Christmas music in 2025

Good top ten
Piran
Thank you. :)
macie
As much as I love Christmas music, I’m really excited for next week’s complete reset
M
mrstarling
It will be a mixed week next week If the top 19 is what Piran said its set to be
sakgra
it wont because of new years in the middle of the week
macie
Absolutely ecstatic to see Underneath The Tree back in the top 10 at a new peak! I’m thrilled it was able to hit the top 10 this year, the fact it did 1.9M streams on Spotify on Christmas is crazy!!
M
mrstarling
I contributed to the songs Streams :)
Piran
So the chart of the year was counted down on Radio 1 earlier today! What did you all think of it for those of you who listened in?
My personal highlights of the year were ‘Murder On The Dancefloor’ getting a resurgence right at the beginning of the year, Hozier surprising us all with a #1 hit, the “Brat Summer” phenomenon and especially the mainstream breakthrough for Chappell Roan!
M
mrstarling
I can't pick a highlight... there's so many
macie
my highlights were Prada, Disconnect, greedy & Escapism. all getting a 2nd year end each (with Becky continuing her streak of having a song on the year end every year since 2019!) and also the comeback for Valerie!!
M
mrstarling
Macie >
All good things
Piran
Becky, RAYE and Tate all had amazing years!
Piran

M
mrstarling
Benson and Teddy would still be top 20 without Christmas songs... wth
Piran
They're probably getting Year-End boosts.
M
mrstarling
Shocked to see so many non Christmas entry's have high falls this week!
R
riley_jay
when’s the end of year chart available
Piran
It's being counted down on Radio 1 right now, but I expect OCC will publish it within the next week or two.
M
mrstarling
The UK end of year is sorted out more than Billboard.
Piran
Just like last year, only three non-festive songs survived the holiday takeover this year. It’s a bit of a shame that Greg Lake’s ‘I Believe In Father Christmas’ never returned to the chart during the holidays.
That being said, it’s cool that ‘Sleigh Ride’ reached a new peak for The Ronettes. I’m also delighted that Darlene Love’s ‘Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)’ and Cher’s ‘DJ Play A Christmas Song’ got at least a week in the Top 40! 😊
R
Rik
Yes Greg Lake should be top 10……an absolute classic! Would also like to see Coldplay Christmas Lights higher.
With Mariah returning to no 2 I make that 13 weeks in total in the runner up position- is that a record?
Piran
I can't find anything that confirms it as a record but I wouldn't be surprised if it is.
Piran
Since this is the last chart of the year, I want to thank you all for 2024 and wish everybody the very best for 2025. Hope the next 12 months are everything you want them to be! ❤️
M
mrstarling
What a year.. this went by so fast
Piran
This was a good year for me as a whole, but yeah, it went by very fast.
M
mrstarling
😭 I Don't wanna get older
Piran
Who’s ready for the Re Re Re Re chart next week?
M
mrstarling
Me! I wonder who will seize number one... messy?
Piran
I think 'That's So True' will return to #1 next week but 'Messy' could get there eventually.
M
mrstarling
I love 'Messy'
sakgra
i think there will be a half xmas chart because of new year s day in the middle of the week
Piran
The tracking week started on the 27th. Christmas Day and Boxing Day were both before then, so I think it'll be just Wham! and Mariah left in the chart, maybe Tom and Brenda will hang on too but that'll be it.
