The X Factor winners Little Mix will need to sell a lot of copies of ‘Cannonball’ during the upcoming week to retain the top spot and become this year’s Christmas No.1. Usually, the winners’ debut singles are released on the week of the coveted Christmas number-one battle. And usually they win. Last year Matt Cradle won managed the feat with “When We Collide.”

Being the runner-up of X-Factor and losing the final to Joe McElderry, it seems as if Olly Murs was the successful one. Returning to No.1 with ‘Dance with Me Tonight,’ Murs has successfully placed to tracks atop of the UK singles chart.

Matt Cradle vaults into No.1 with “When We Collide.”

“Someone Wake Me Up” will be recorded by different artists for different markets.
