^ I know it's just a song - but we are supposed to believe in the illusion of 2 people being in love with each other. Otherwise, who are they singing it to? If they made a video of that, people would be disgusted at 80 odd Eng serenading slip of a lass Janet. If it was a high profile example like Rod Stewart duetting with Billie Eilish there would be an absolute meltdown on Twitter.

I'm a big Janet fan but i couldn''t help but feel a bit icky at the thought of her singing a love song with someone old enough to be her grandad.

EDIT: somebody might think of Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga here - it's not the same to me. Janet just seems like she's still younger than she is (her voice doesn't help in that case), wheras Gaga has a much more mature sound to her - it never came off as awkward between them, to me.

also in a key scene from Lovers Rock:

100 The Revolutionaries - Kunta Kinte Version One

I saw that film, not as good as last weeks one, seemed to be set around 1979. Sister Sledge and Denis Brown also in there. Was The Revolutionaries track the one with no vocals and they were all going mad dancing?
Never ever heard it before. Pity they didn't put the track information on the titles at the end as lots of them I had never heard before.
By the way these films were all recorded in Dolby 5.1 so if you have HD and a cinema sound system, don't forget to switch it on next time!

[SholasBoy]

It doesn't seem like Robbie's Christmas album is going to have the annual appeal that others have before it.

[Graham76man]

Sam Fender - Winter Song would qualify, too - see my post above.

I was wondering on that one, but not all songs about Winter are Christmas related, so left it out. Obviously I have not heard the song!

I am in two minds to leave out the duplicates on the Christmas chart, thus allowing the others in. If anyone thinks they should be included comment and if nobody does favour them being in - next week they will go!
