For Christmas day Top of the Pops in The UK aired a special of performances from song of the year's top artists. When I saw the list of performers expected, I literally would have sold my first born (not that I want one, but you get the idea) in order to attend. Unfortunately, I was across the pond in the US anyway. Here are some of the best performances from the show:
Girls Aloud-"The Promise"
I just NEVER get sick of this song! Good performance once again, but Nicola still looks nightmarish!
Pussycat Dolls-"I Hate This Part"
The only international artists on the show represent! I love this track, so I hope it will continue its upward movement on the charts worldwide. Nicole is a bit tired in her dance routine, but Melody's backing harmonies are a great touch.
Leona Lewis-"Run"
Not many performers actually add to a song in live performance but Leona always seems to. This performance of this epic song is absolutely stunning!
Alexandra Burke-"Hallelujah"
A fitting track for Christmas day, especially since it currently sits at #1 on the singles charts in the UK and is the fastest selling download of the year. The performance is a bit hoarse, and certainly does not top Leona in technique.
Mamma Mia Cast
This soundtrack exploded on the charts this year both in the US and UK and this performance is super fun. "Mamma Mia" always reminds me of clubbing in London as they seem to often play it. The Brady Bunch Movie-esque outfits in "Dancing Queen" are great!
Coldplay-"Viva La Vida"
This song was absolutely massive in 2008 and this performance really shows why!
