The A-Z Of Christmas One Hit Wonders

OJ Borg has all you’d ever need to know about Christmas One Hit Wonders, including Aled Jones, Band Aid and The Waitresses.

There are many things that make Christmas so good.
The food. The presents. Time spent with loved ones.
And Christmas also delivers when it comes to One Hit Wonders.

Novelty acts, soap stars, reality TV winners and festive favourites, Christmas is the time of year when One Hit Wonders really comes into its own.

OJ Borg has the definitive A to Z guide to those tracks that come around every year, and those that we may have long forgotten.

From Aled Jones to Zig and Zag, Mr Blobby to The Waitresses, Bobby Helms to Kate Winslet and everything in between, these are the songs we bring out at the same time every year, like getting the Christmas Tree decorations from the loft.
