The UK Christmas Number One has been officially unveiled, and it’s the track that I’m sure most of the country would have been willing to get the Number One spot this Christmas; The Justice Collective’s ‘He Ain’t Heavy He’s My Brother‘ cover.
With its powerful cover image of a young Liverpool and Everton fan holding hands with the numbers 9 and 6 on the backs of their shirts commemorating the 96 that lost their lives in the Hillsborough disaster, this is most definitely a single cover that brings a lump to your throat, and this year we once again have a UK Christmas Number One that we can be truly proud of.
Congratulations to all those involved in The Justice Collective for making this project happen, and indeed to everyone that bought it; this single was released for a great cause, and it’s brilliant to know that the country has got behind it and given it the UK Christmas Number One that it so richly deserved.
