We all have a favourite Christmas song 🎄
Maybe that's why in December, the charts at one point seemed like a bigger deal than at other times of the year. But despite all the festive hymns, carols, songs and covers there are, the honour of Christmas number one hasn't always gone to an actual Christmas song.
Take a walk down memory lane below. Songs that went number one in one region and not the other are specified. 1972 Jimmy Osmond - Long Haired Lover from Liverpool Thin Lizzy - Whiskey in the Jar Christmas songs did actually top the charts in both the UK and Ireland during the 70s, such as Slade's 'Merry Christmas Everybody' , Mud's 'Lonely This Christmas' , Johnny Mathis' 'When a Child Is Born ' and Boney M's 'Mary's Boy Child – Oh My Lord' .
1992 Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You Though the year 1990 saw Christmas songs top the charts in both Ireland and the UK , East 17's 'Stay Another Day' was the only other festive tune to earn a number one during the decade in both regions . Take That took the number one spot in Ireland in 1993 , but were beaten out by Mr Blobby's self-titled single in the UK the same year.
