Christmas Number One? Just for me?

110 words posted by Simon on 17 October 2006

Peter Andre and JordanSome are supporting The Hoff to become Christmas Number One – but I’m tipping Peter Andre and Jordan. Yep, the duo have recorded ‘A Whole New World’, from Disney’s Aladdin. Click on the play button if you’ve got four-and-a-half minutes to waste.

Now, if you’ve stopped listening at the Peter bit, you’ve finished too early. Keep listening. He might be cringeworthy, but at 1:11, she starts. Earplugs at the ready.

At the moment, it’s only destined to appear on an album of covers. But I beg of the producers, please release it!

This just has to be Christmas Number One.

Read the full story in the Australian Daily Telegraph.

I cannot believe they would actually release this.They would be shouted off the karioke at the pub at 11pm on a Saturday night.

The version to be released has been been ‘digitally remastered’, as it was for their performance on Children in Need. Allegedly.

A spokesperson for Jordan has now claimed the version above is a fake (as noted on the original article) – though the genuine article, as on the above link, isn’t an awful lot better…
