BRING BACK THE CHRISTMAS NUMBER ONE 1 – I’m Going Home – David Essex, Justin Lee Collins, Showaddywaddy, Slade, Jona Lewie, for Channel 4.
Justin Lee Collins attempts to make a Christmas-themed song for the Christmas number one single slot – a feat not accomplished since Cliff Richard’s Saviour’s Day in 1990, excluding the re-recorded version of the 1984 song “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” by Band Aid in 2004.
In the end, they produced the song “I’m Goin’ Home”, featuring the following musicians:
David Essex (vocals)
Mud’s Rob Davis (guitar)
Slade’s Dave Hill (guitar)
Slade’s Don Powell (drums)
Jona Lewie (piano)
Dave Mount (drums)
Showaddywaddy (backing vocals)
Justin Lee Collins (backing vocals and sleigh bells)
Liz Mitchell of Boney M and Aled Jones expressed interest in the project, but were ultimately unable to attend.
The song was to be released so it could compete to be Christmas number 1 but the record company axed the release. However it was available for download for the Channel 4 website and where it reached number 1 in the site’s download chart.
