Did you know there’s four version of “Do They Know It’s Christmas” And they’ve all got to Number 1…
BAND AID
But which is the best?
The 1984, 1989, 2004 or 2014 version? Altogether there have been (around) 138 vocalists involved with the single, which has sold over 11.7 million copies world. It raised £8million blasting the original hopes of Bob Geldof to raise £70,000. So which is your favourite version?
Is Cruz Beckham heading in a musical direction just like his Mumma?
It’s been over a decade since a Beckham charted in the UK singles charts (Victoria’s last hit was “This Groove” / “Let Your Head Go” in 2003) but now it seems her son, Cruz is eyeing a Christmas number one and is vying for the top spot in the race for this Christmas number 1 and he’s doing it for charity… ahhh!
The bookies are suggesting that David and Victoria’s third son, 11-year-old Cruz, could be in line for a Christmas hit after bookies slashed the odds of Cruz beating the X Factor winner’s single.
William Hill spokesman Joe Crilly said,
“We thought when we put Cruz in our Christmas betting at 25/1 that he would be a popular selection and so it has proved and we have had to slash his odds of bagging the Christmas number one after just a couple of hours”.
Favourite to win this year tho is the Parliamentary Choir / Friends of Jo Cox who are releasing a single in memory of the slain MP. The X Factor winner, whoever that ends up being is third down the list.
UK Christmas number one single: 1/1 Parliamentary choir; 3/1 UK X Factor winner; 4/1 London Hospices choir; 10/1 Clean Bandit; 10/1 Cruz Beckham; 12/1 Inspiral Carpets; 14/1 BAR
