Well you can tell it's Christmas time! 6 debuts this week, all holiday tunes. But first, Taylor Swift has her 3rd AC #1 this week as "Mine" moves to the top. Her other #1s have been "Love Story" and "You Belong With Me." For the 2nd week in a row, the #1 song falls to #3.
Mariah Carey leads off the holiday troops as she makes a huge entry all the way at #12 this week with "Oh Santa." This is Mariah's 28th AC hit, and her 26th top 20. She charted earlier this year with "Angels Cry" featuring Ne-Yo, which peaked at #26 in April.
Debut #2 comes from Season 5 American Idol runner-up Katharine McPhee. Her rendition of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" comes in at #23. This is her 2nd appearance on the AC chart, her first was with "Had it All" which peaked at #22 back in January. This is trumpeter Chris Botti's first appearance in the top 30.
Next up is Train's Christmas single "Shake Up Christmas." The song comes in at #24 giving the band their 7th AC hit.
At #25 with debut #4 is international star Susan Boyle. Last year she got to #5 with her rendition of "Silent Night." This year, she tries with "Do You Hear What I Hear" from her official Christmas album. We may see more from her as the weeks progress.
Here's a name we haven't seen in awhile. Wilson Phillips is back on the AC chart with their rendition of "Santa Claus is Coming to Town."
This is the trio's 11th AC hit. The last time we saw them was when "Go Your Own Way" peaked at #13 back in July 2004.
The final debut this week comes from Christian singer-songwriter Dave Barnes. The song "Christmas Tonight," which features Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott, is the first single off his Christmas album "Very Merry Christmas."
Katy Perry goes recurrent this week with California Gurls. Hopefully more will follow in the Christmas rush.
