Seat68 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Wrapped the presents yesterday as I am on the bench from work this week. Realised I have bought my wife what amounts to **** all. Today I am going to see what Stafford has to offer up to a woman that likes Monty Don and Dogs. May go for perfume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 People used to moan about Cowells grip on the Christmas Number 1, how it was no longer organic and it was a given that one of his acts would get it. Seems Ladbaby is going to have their 4th Christmas Number 1 in a row, a cover of the current number 1, and featuring Ed Sheeran. I understand it's for charity, but even then I would question how much the charity gets, the sales pretty much exist for one week, they promote it like hell, and they have to give a slice (historically) to the original writers, I suspect the money given to charity is minimal. Anyway, enough. Looks like Ladbaby and Elton and Ed are getting the Christmas Number 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Googled Ladbaby, could have been worse I guess but jeez that’s uninspiring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did watch a doc on Bandaid last night. At least they wrote the thing so had all of the royalties going to the charity. If it's a cover it's not making real money.

bickster Posted December 22, 2021 Moderator Share Posted December 22, 2021 As it’s a cover of Elton’s song, I think all the money will be going to The Trussel Trust. Elton would be a bit of a word removed if he took the royalties after appearing on it. Elton isn’t a word removed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Elton seems a decent bloke. Wouldn’t want to upset him, mind anyway breakfast with Santa in Ashbourne cancelled . He’s not coming because of what’s going on. Luckily they let us know just before we left Rugeley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I couldn’t tell you what’s been Christmas number one at any point in the last 20 odd years. If I had to guess one though, I’d say Ed Sheeran, because that’s the answer I give to all pop music questions. 80% of the time it’s right! As for Ladbaby, I was made to watch 30 seconds of his hilarious video once, I think it was the one where he very cleverly swapped the words ‘rock n’ roll’ for ‘sausage roll’. It was genius on a level I’d never experienced. The doors of perception were blown wide open that day. I knew it would be shit when the Facebook Karen in my team wouldn’t stop going on about how funny he is. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
