UK Trending Top 40 - 29 December 2017 | Charts

Big Shaq remains at number one on the UK Trending Top 40 for a seventh week with Man's Not Hot.

Eminem and Ed Sheeran's River stays at number two just ahead of Perfect, also by Ed Sheeran, at number three.

Wham's Last Christmas stays at number four, while Fairytale Of New York by The Pogues and Kirsty MacColl overtakes All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey for number five. The Christmas songs continue as Band Aid's Do They Know It's Christmas and Chris Rea's Driving Home For Christmas hit new peak positions, both climbing two places this week to numbers seven and eight respectively. Behind Post Malone and 21 Savage's Rockstar which is up three places to number nine, Slade's Merry Xmas Everybody has reached the top ten for the first time.

Other Christmas songs that have hit new peak positions this week are Elton John's Step Into Christmas, Ariana Grande's Santa Tell Me, Coldplay's Christmas Lights, Boney M's Mary's Boy Child, Bing Crosby's White Christmas, Wizzard's I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday, Shakin Stevens' Merry Christmas Everyone, Andy Williams' It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year, Kelly Clarkson's Underneath The Tree, Jona Lewie's Stop The Cavalry (a re-entry), Paul McCartney's Wonderful Christmastime and Brenda Lee's Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree.

The only two new entries this week are also past Christmas songs as The Darkness hit the UK Trending Top 40 for the first time with Christmas Time (Don't Let The Bells End) at number 34, and East 17's Stay Another Day reaches number 38.

This week sees a record broken for the most Christmas songs in the chart in one week, with twenty-one songs in the top 40 (more than half!) being Christmas songs.
