It’s too early to dive into holiday music for me, but look forward to listening soon.

Cher's album is fun and many songs on it feel not so Christmassy but year-round. I cannot get Cher's DJ Play a Christmas Song out of my head. DJ Play a Christmas Song is just FUN! Cher just belts it Cher-Like, and it makes me want to dance but it does not mean only at Christmas. I will listen to this song year-round. This song is no Jingle Bells. Back in the early 70's Sonny & Cher did do Jingle Bells on their show. Caught it on You Tube and their version is fun. Not usually into Christmas music but this album is so different, so CHER!

Agree about DJ Play A Christmas Song being a year round bop... very rare with Holiday music but it's welcomed! I love how it sounds like it slipped of my fave Cher album, Living Proof... When peeps finally start getting into Holiday music I think we'll see some more love for this!

The fact that she only has 6 albums that hit the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 (and none of them #1) is shameful.

Apparently, Cher will be performing multiple songs on the Rockefeller Center special. And, also read she'll be performing on the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, right before Santa makes his appearance. Is all this confirmed?

I gave this album a spin the other night and loved it a lot more than I was expecting! It's so nice to hear Cher's voice on some new original music in addition to some Christmas classics.
The duet of "Home" with Bublé was lovely too.

Yes, Home (with Michael Bublé) is a great song. Loved her teaming up with Tyga. Drop Top Sleigh Ride (with Tyga) is pure fun and loved her duets with Stevie, Cyndi and Darlene. Cher's Santa Baby is such campy fun!

Warner Brothers records put out a nice ad congratulating her on achieving 7 decades of #1 on the Billboard Charts. I tried to copy and post it, but I could not figure out how. I must be one of the most unsavvy posters on here to not be able to do something as simple as that. Oh well. Nice shot of her album cover in her Frozen gown. Love her frozen gown!

In other news, it appears she'll be recording a new album in February. Let's hope she's breaking records at 78 too

Sales of her album are doing well but the amazing thing is her radio play. At age 77, Cher now has the record for the oldest artist on mainstream radio. Of course, this will continue to help her album sales. She last did this at age 56 and even back then, it was amazing.

@cher
officially earns her first Top 40 entry on US Pop Radio (Mediabase) since 2002 this week with “DJ Play A Christmas Song.”
Cher is the oldest artist in the formats history to chart a song in the Top 40.

Carlitoz, great question. Getting closer and closer now. Just for Cher's J DJ Play a Christmas Song to be #115 on the Billboard Bubbling Under Chart is a major accomplishment for a 77-year-old with a solo song. Cher first landed on the Billboard Bubbling Under Chart in December 1964 at age 17 with Baby Don't Go. 59 Years is long span on the Billboard Bubbling Under chart. If DJ Play a Christmas Song misses the Hot 100 this year, I bet she does it next year at age 78! It seems like a lot of people are rooting for Cher and her song.
