Michael Bubl茅 is proving he鈥檚 still got plenty of jingle as king of the Christmas music charts.

A decade after release, his perennial favourite 鈥淐hristmas鈥� has marked a new milestone by becoming the only album to reach No. 1 in five different calendar years on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart.

鈥淐hristmas鈥� knocked Adele鈥檚 鈥�30鈥� out of the top spot for the week that ended Dec. 30, 2021.

Chart position tabulator MRC Data says it鈥檚 the ninth non-consecutive week the album has reached peak position on that chart.

The Burnaby, B.C. crooner was helped by various deluxe editions of 鈥淐hristmas鈥� released to mark the 10th anniversary, each of them packaged with two new tracks, 鈥淭he Christmas Sweater鈥� and 鈥淟et It Snow.鈥�

Bubl茅鈥檚 record label Warner Music Canada celebrated the season with a new vinyl box set packed with an array of goodies, including both a CD and LP of 鈥淐hristmas.鈥� The set also featured an extra seven-track CD of bonus songs, a Christmas ornament and a book.

On streaming services, the anniversary edition of 鈥淐hristmas鈥� included 25 tracks, with each play helping it rank on the album chart through a metric called streaming equivalent albums, which counts accumulated streams as one album sale.

Warner says 鈥淐hristmas鈥� has sold more than 16 million albums and racked up four billion streams in its life span, including 72 million streams in Canada this year alone. In total, the album has spent 69 weeks on the Canadian albums chart.

Bubl茅 isn鈥檛 letting all of this attention go to waste. Over the Christmas season, he started teasing fans with sample clips of his next album, saying that new music would arrive on Jan. 14.
