Ariana Grande holds on to the UK Number 1 single for a third week with Positions.

The lead single from her chart-topping album of the same name continues its reign at Number 1 after clocking up over 44,000 chart sales including 5.4 million streams. Also from Positions, POV is this week’s highest new entry at Number 22, becoming Ariana’s 29th Top 40 track.

Following the release of their sixth album Confetti, Little Mix scoop two Top 40 singles this week; Sweet Melody flies nine places to a new peak of Number 3, and the album’s title track Confetti is at Number 23, their 27th Top 40 hit.

Miley Cyrus’s Midnight Sky rises back to its previous peak of Number 5, following the release of a remix featuring Stevie Nicks, Edge of Midnight, which samples Nicks’ seminal 1981 track Edge of Seventeen – which didn’t chart in the UK but has become a classic in the years since its release.

Further down, Dua Lipa’s Levitating becomes her tenth Top 10 single, rising three to Number 10. The song has enjoyed a recent rise following a remix of the track featuring DaBaby.

Justin Bieber & Benny Blanco’s Lonely rises three to a new peak at Number 17, while James Arthur lands his tenth Top 20 hit as 2016 track Train Wreck rises four to Number 19. Shawn Mendes’ Wonder climbs five to a new peak at Number 20.
