Singles: December 2011

Words: Saam Das

December is always characterised by the battle for Christmas #1, although the dominance of the Military Wives Choir put paid to any real interest in the 2011 "battle" against whatever the 'X-Factor' song was. It'd be nice to actually have a Christmas #1 that somewhow relates to Christmas at some point though. Anyway, here are the top ten singles of December 2011.

Remixed: Alex Day - Forever Yours (Vocal Remix)

Remixed is a column that will highlight remixes we actually think are worthy of praise, be they old or new. Because most remixes are rubbish. // Words: Saam Das

Alex Day is something of a YouTube sensation. Indeed, you may now him better as "nerimon". He's in a Doctor Who tribute band. He's also found himself in the mix to become the UK's latest Christmas #1 single. Although his offering 'Forever Yours' isn't a festive special, it is in aid of charity and actually quite good. Listen to it below, along with a charming vocal-only version.
