This happens every year, but I still wonder why Christmas songs drop slowly out of the chart. Surely noone wants to listen to. let alone buy, Christmas songs after Christmas So who in there right minds buys them in January? Bizzare. A Christmas single should go from no. 5 in the Christmas chart to about no. 600 the week after.
I have about 150 various Christmas songs on my ipod, but come Boxing Day I'll be "un-ticking" them until next year.

Come on, one of you must be able to admit to getting one and actually playing it after Christmas and the New Year
