It's only two weeks to Christmas, and yet the singles charts are still looking decidedly un-festive.

Once again the nation's in the midst of a post-sports hangover, and once again Joe's not available to pluck up our spirits with his witty take on the week's singles. But we're kind souls here at No Ripcord, and we wouldn't dream of leaving you in the lurch completely.
