It's that time of year again when the Christmas number one chart battle begins. This year, the competition includes the talented duo of Calum Scott and Christina Perri. As they sit down to chat about their upcoming release, Christina shocks Calum by confessing that she never knew the Christmas number one was a real thing.
Calum and his team were stunned by this revelation from their American collaborator. In the US, there are Christmas radio stations, but the battle for the number one spot is a uniquely British tradition. Christina admits that she had no idea that such a competition existed, but she's excited to be a part of it with her love for Christmas music.
This year, the competition for the top spot is fierce with new festive tracks from Tom Grennan, Laufey, Paloma Faith, and Perrie Edwards. Calum and Christina are determined to make their mark on the charts with their single, "Kid At Christmas."
As they continue to discuss their collaboration, Christina shares that she has always been a huge Christmas enthusiast. She's especially excited to be working with Calum, who she has admired for his talent. Calum, on the other hand, reveals that he has always seen the Christmas charts as an untouchable feat, with classic songs by artists like Mariah Carey and Wham dominating the charts for years.
However, a conversation with Sam Ryder, whose festive track nearly topped the charts last year, changed Calum's perspective. He now believes that anyone can have a shot at the number one spot, as long as their song resonates with listeners.
Both artists are grateful for the opportunities their music has given them. For Calum, his cover of Robyn's "Dancing On My Own" launched his career after his unforgettable performance on Britain's Got Talent. Christina, on the other hand, is grateful for the longevity of her music, especially her hit single "Jar of Hearts."
Their new single, "Kid at Christmas," is a testament to their shared love for heartfelt and meaningful music that connects with people. As they joke about "falling in love" with each other during their collaboration, it's clear that their natural chemistry adds to the magic of their music.
As they look back on their careers, Christina and Calum are grateful for the journey their music has taken them on. From Christina's debut single to her iconic song, "A Thousand Years," appearing on the Twilight soundtrack, and Calum's breakout performance on Britain's Got Talent, their music has touched countless lives.
Their new single, "Kid at Christmas," is just another chapter in their musical journey, and they can't wait to see where it takes them. As they continue to spread joy through their music, they hope to inspire others to follow their dreams and never give up on their passions.
