Calvin Harris and his latest all-star troupe of collaborators have secured this week’s Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart.
Feels, the Scottish DJ’s latest track featuring guest vocals from Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry and Big Sean, becomes Calvin’s eighth UK Number 1 hit, putting him level with The Rolling Stones, Oasis and Eminem, who each have the same number of chart-toppers.

It's nice that the ad close button actually closes them now.
Brett
Despacito is the real Number 1, the most purchased and streamed song of the week and it's Number 4 on the 'Official' chart. OCC you are making a mockery of the chart with these fake charts and fake Number 1's.
Dave Harler
What makes the charts a mockery nowadays is allowing streaming to be counted for. The charts should be based on pure and digital sales ONLY, and not streaming!
Brett
Not counting streaming at all is as ridiculous as what the OCC are doing, and what are you going to compile the chart from when downloads are completely dead? They needed to keep the streaming ratios as they were and not discriminate against long runners. The chart is now meaningless.

"Feels" is currently my favourite song, and I'm glad to see it at number one this week. Super DJ Calvin Harris has now 8 UK chart toppers. Wow!
Brett
Shame it's a fake Number 1 since Despacito is the most streamed and purchased track of the week.
R
RIME
Not once but twice now the song that leads streaming and sales is not the top song in the country. They've gotta know how much of a farce this makes the chart look like, right? So yeah, for the record, Despacito is now #1 for a 13th week, coming for that record.
Brett
Totally agree. Join Facebook's UK Top 40 Chart Chat for like minded conversation about this stupidity.
I Am A Stegosaurus
Something tells me the sales chart is the one being rigged, how can people still be buying Despacito, wouldn't they have it already?
R
RIME
Three things:
-NOW 97 just came out and gave Despacito a massive sales boost (and Feels a minor one).
-Radio is still relentless with the song, prompting curiosity and thus potential proxy sales.
-It just broke a major YouTube record (both the most viewed video ever and first ever to pass 3 billion); while that doesn't directly contribute to the chart, the major news headlines and the YouTube prominence also act as a proxy for checking out/buying the song.
I Am A Stegosaurus
How could 97's release give one a major boost and one a minor boost? Or is it a case of cherry picking?
R
RIME
I meant in terms of what happened. Feels' second version from NOW only got 1/10 of what the main version did. Despacito's NOW version did as well as the main English and Spanish versions combined.
EDIT: Oh, I just realized what you meant. NOW singles in the UK are purchaseable on their own along with as an album, so they were showing up on the iTunes Singles chart in tandem with their main artist-released versions.

so the no.1 selling and no.1 streaming song falls to number 4... again...

Good finally a new #1 we need this rule in America as well.
Brett
Don't you have enough fake news there
JJ
Jack James
Yes we do.
JJ
Jack James
Goodbye Despacito hope you stay gone.
Brett
If you want to blindly believe the OCC's fake news then yes Despacito's reign is over but as far as I'm concerned as the most purchased and streamed track of the week it's still Number 1
JJ
Jack James
Despacito .
Brett
Whether it or not it's the best selling and most streamed song and should be number 1. If what you want is a chart with no songs in it that you don't like and you don't care that it's fake you might as well make your own up.
JJ
Jack James
I agree it's the best selling and most streamed song but something had to be done to prevent long periods and more turnover at #1.
WinEr Pasquin
It may be the most streamed, but its streaming:sale ratio has been increased from 150:1 to 300:1, which is quite unfair
JJ
Jack James
Finally take notice singles charts around the world we want more turnover congrats.
sam mcginn
I quite agree
Brett
If you want to blindly believe the OCC's fake news then yes Despacito's reign is over but as far as I'm concerned as the most purchased and streamed track of the week it's still Number 1
I Am A Stegosaurus
You sound like a butthurt Spanish dude off that your turdpile is off the top spot. You can have an opinion but posting it in reply to everyone happy about Feels at #1 is unproductive.
Brett
I'm not Spanish, I don't like Despacito and I like Feels. I don't see any value however in a chart where the nations most popular song in both sales and streams is Number 4.
