Elton has racked up his 60th Top 40 hit with "Merry Christmas" the duet he released in 2021 with Ed Sheeran. This is the first time it has reached the Billboard Top 40 entering the chart at #38.
From Billboard's Chart Beat...
As holiday hits decorate the Billboard Hot 100’s entire top 10, and top 16, spots for the first time, another seasonal song, among others, makes a notable jolly jaunt: Ed Sheeran and Elton John’s “Merry Christmas” jingles four places to No. 38, marking its first week in the chart’s top 40 – and John’s milestone 60th top 40 hit and Sheeran’s likewise landmark 25th.
The team-up, which Sheeran and John co-wrote, was released in 2021 and first peaked at No. 42 a year later.
