Lewis Capaldi has claimed Ireland’s Christmas Number 1 single for 2019.

Before You Go takes out a fourth week at the top, pipping Stormzy’s Own It ft. Ed Sheeran and Burna Boy (2) to the helm. Collecting the Christmas Number 1 caps off a terrific year for Lewis, which has seen him have more chart-topping singles and spend more weeks at Number 1 than any other act.

Stormzy’s Own It reaching Number 2 marks a new peak for the track, while the British rapper also claims this week’s highest new entry at Number 8 with Audacity featuring Headie One. Fellow Heavy Is The Head album track Lessons debuts at Number 15.
