				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Liam Gallagher is in the running for Christmas UK number 1, for his festive single, </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">All You’re Dreaming Of. </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">The former Oasis frontman is up against The Pogues&#8217; <em>Fairytale in New York</em>, Mariah Carey&#8217;s <em>All I Want For Christmas Is You </em>and Wham&#8217;s Last Christmas.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Currently, Gallagher’s yuletide track has claimed the #2 slot on the Official UK Charts, ensuring the <em>Rock N Roll Star</em> a strong spot in the running for the coveted top spot. The winner of the tight chart race will be announced next week. </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">All You’re Dreaming Of </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">has also done incredibly well in terms of physical copies, and is already the best selling vinyl single of 2020. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ever modest, Gallagher was quick to announce the success of All You’re Dreaming Of. Taking to his favourite social media platform, Gallagher tweeted earlier today (December 19th):</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.nme.com/news/music/liam-gallagher-in-the-running-for-christmas-number-one-with-all-youre-dreaming-of-2842631"> “All You’re Dreaming Of is number 2 midweek UK </a>charts c’mon you know, LG x.” </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fans were certainly in agreement with Gallagher’s celebratory tweet, as the post received over 600 likes and 5000 retweets!</span></p>
<p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/YkW8_UOVZ0w" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">All You’re Dreaming Of </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">was released on November 27th, kicking off the Christmas season with a strong, moving festive single. Since then, Gallagher performed the new track live on the Jonathan Ross show. Additionally, Gallagher included </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">All You’re Dreaming Of</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> as part of his Down By The River live stream, which saw Gallagher and his band sing some of the star’s biggest and best hits whilst floating down the River Thames on a giant barrage. </span></p>
<p>In accordance with his new release, Gallagher also put out a Christmassy music video, which was directed by Anthony Byrne. The monochromatic video opens with a flurry of snow blowing across a cold, dark night. Before long, we see a trio of brass instrumentalists, and a piano playing itself.</p>
<p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/m-UQPfWiC7Q" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The camera then pans to Gallagher, who stands alone in a large, empty home. Gallagher launches into the track’s opening verse in his signature Mancunian croon.  Gallagher sings:</span><a href="https://genius.com/Liam-gallagher-all-youre-dreaming-of-lyrics"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> “</span></i></a><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://genius.com/Liam-gallagher-all-youre-dreaming-of-lyrics">Paint the night sky</a>/While the morning waits/With a field of stars/To keep the dark at bay”</span></i></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As the instruments swell, the memento builds, and the song reaches its Christmassy climax. Gallagher sings the chorus: </span><a href="https://genius.com/Liam-gallagher-all-youre-dreaming-of-lyrics"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">“</span></i></a><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://genius.com/Liam-gallagher-all-youre-dreaming-of-lyrics">Oh what are you dreamin&#8217; of?</a>/Is it the kind of love/That&#8217;ll be there when the world is at its worst?/That&#8217;ll cover you in kisses unrehearsed?” </span></i></p>
