UK Christmas Number One Betting

There was a time when the Christmas number one was a big betting heat but due to the success of the X Factor, the winner of this show is almost a certainty to provide the number one pop song at Christmas.

The music industry tries really hard to produce a number one hit for Christmas as the record sales at this time of the year are much bigger than any other. The general contenders are usually the big name bands and to some extent the field can be narrowed down to these options but do not forget the novelty options.
