By mid-January it was still at number one; it stayed in the UK Singles Chart well into February 1974.Based on melodies from discarded songs written six years before, %22Merry Xmas Everybody%22 was Slade's best-selling single, released at the peak of their popularity, and sold over a million copies upon its first release.

In a 2007 poll, %22Merry Xmas Everybody%22 was voted the UK's most popular Christmas song.According to the Fan Club Newsletter for January and February 1974, the song was rewarded a Silver Disc for pre-order sales, even before the single's release. Within the first week of release, the single had sold 500,000 copies. Also, according to the same newsletter, %22Merry Xmas Everybody%22 was in such big demand that Polydor records had to make special arrangements to have 250,000 discs sent from Los Angeles, as well as 30,000 copies a day they were receiving from Germany.The single was certified UK Platinum by BPI in December 1980. Since 2007 and the advent of downloads counting toward the UK Singles Chart, it has re-entered the charts each December.
