Well John Lewis has done it again in 2012. It's Christmas Ad campaign is always eagerly awaited, and the accompanying music often goes on to chart success. Since 2009 those sound tracks have collectively sold 1.5 million singles in the UK. Four of those have gone on to become Top 10 hits on the Official Singles Chart.
The Official Charts Company's data shows that Ellie Goulding's "Your Song" cover in 2010 went on to generate over 729,000 sales and in 2012 Gabrielle Alpin's cover of The Power of Love has generated 220,000 sales in the first five weeks. Happy Christmas Gabrielle....
