It feels as though Christmas is just around the corner - especially as it's now just over a month away! To celebrate the festive season, we'll be playing our very first Christmas song of the year tomorrow (22nd Nov) after 8am.

To kick-start our Christmas season here at Hits Radio, we've chosen to play a brand new Christmas song by none other than Robbie Williams called 'Time For Change', whose brand new Christmas record 'The Christmas Present' is out tomorrow!

We recently caught up with Robbie at Hits Live, and he told us all about the album, "I feel like it’s three years' hard work, I have really wanted and needed to create a song that sticks around and becomes the fabric of people’s musical life, and I’ll only find out if I’ve done that next year - if the song gets played again."

Robbie isn't the only one bringing out a brand new Christmas song this year, as Liam Payne and Little Mix are also releasing festive tracks soon. Liam, whose debut album 'LP1' is set to be released on 6th December, has made track 'All I Want (For Christmas)', and Little Mix's 'One I've Been Missing' has also been released tomorrow!

Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall announced the news on Twitter, posting a video where Leigh-Anne told fans, "Hey guys, our brand new Christmas single 'One I've Been Missing' is out Friday! It's our first ever Christmas single so it's very special to us."
