Michael Bublé’s Christmas skips 3-1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, achieving the highest on-demand streams for the week. It is the album’s seventh week at the top of the chart and has reached No. 1 in each of the last three years during Christmas week.


With the addition of a number of new songs, Eminem’s enhanced Music To Be Murdered By moves 55-2. The album spent four weeks at No. 1 back in January and February.

Last week’s No. 1 album, Taylor Swift’s evermore, falls to 3rd place, Mariah Carey’s Merry Christmas bullets 12-4 and Pop Smoke’s Shoot For The Stars Aim For The Moon drops to No. 5.

Kesha Brings 'Holiday Road' to The Billboard Canadian Hot 100

The newly independent pop singer's cover of Lindsay Buckingham's 1983 song from National Lampoon's Vacation was first released as a Spotify exclusive for the holidays. Michael Bublé's Christmas, meanwhile, remains at No. 1 on the Canadian Albums chart.

Kesha has brought an under-appreciated holiday gem back to the charts. Her version of "Holiday Road" debuts on this week's Billboard Canadian Hot 100 (dated Dec. 28, 2024) at No. 83.

"Holiday Road" was originally released in 1983 by Fleetwood Mac legend Lindsey Buckingham and serves as the propulsive opening theme to the Chevy Chase-starting classic comedy road trip film National Lampoon's Vacation.
