The king – or at least duke – of Christmas, Michael Bublé, has backed Lewis Capaldi in the race for this year’s UK Christmas number one. Despite Capaldi’s latest track being in no way Chrismassy. This follows Capaldi saying that he has a “gripe to grind with Mr Bublé”, as his new single, ‘Pointless’, is getting “hammered in the charts by Christmas songs”.Capaldi made his jokey comments last week while filming his ‘BBC Radio 2 In Concert’ show, which will air on Radio 2 tonight, as well as being watchable on the BBC’s iPlayer.“No one told me that it was probably a bad idea to release a song at Christmas – a song that has no reference to Christmas”, he told the audience at the BBC Radio Theatre.
“We’re really being hammered in the charts by Christmas songs”.“Not that it matters, but you know, these record labels want some money”, he went on. “So, if anyone sees Michael Bublé, you let him know I’m looking for him. I’ve got a gripe to grind with Mr Bublé!”But Bublé wants no beef.
Not at Christmas. He just wants Lewis Capaldi to be happy. And if that means backing him to get to Christmas number one next week, then he’s all in.Speaking directly to Capaldi in a post on TikTok, Bublé said: “Let me just tell you how deeply crushed I am that my music could ever get in the way of your song going to number one.
It’s an amazing song and you’re an amazing dude. I’m putting it on my Christmas playlist right now”.“I’m telling you that ‘Pointless’ is so beautiful”, he went on. “If it doesn’t go [to] number one, I believe Christmas should be cancelled.
And maybe even Hanukkah. Maybe that’s too far, I don’t know. But I do know this: I love you Lewis Capaldi.
