Been working on getting Yub nub to number one in recent days but sadly we have had to pull the plug on it as Yub nub is not available on iTunes to purchase. For some reason return of the Jedi soundtrack isn't on there whatsoever, the other five film soundtracks are but no jedi.
Rather than completely pull the plug on the idea I've done a bit of research and selected five different Star Wars based songs that are available on iTunes. I have listed them below with links to YouTube to be watched then thought we could have a poll and we'll go with whatever song gets the most votes. It'd be great to see a Star Wars song at least charting in the Christmas top 40.
So enough said, let's look at the songs.
R2-D2 We Wish You a Merry Christmas

This song was by the original cast and featuring Bon Jovi. This was originally on the Christmas with the stars album and is the only song off that album still available on iTunes. This gets my vote for nostalgic reasons.
Star Wars Medley by Peter Hollens & Lindsey Sterling

Something a little different.
Star Wars Theme by Meco

Again another one from back in the day, Mecos dance track of the Star Wars theme was epic in its time, maybe time to see if we can chart again?
Hologram/Binary Sunset by John Williams

Perhaps the most iconic piece of music from the films. Beautiful piece of classic music if we wanted to go down the soundtrack route.
Tatooine by Jeremy Messersmith

Great song that Grant chanced across on YouTube, not only a great great tune but an outstanding video to go alongside it.
