Plus Harry Styles scores this week's highest new entry.
Tones and I officially claims Ireland’s longest-reigning Number 1 of the decade by a female lead artist.
The Australian’s breakout hit Dance Monkey has now spent eight weeks atop the Official Irish Singles Chart, more than any other woman since 2010. The last time a female lead sat at Number 1 this long was Leona Lewis in 2007 with Bleeding Love. Rihanna also achieved eight weeks that year with Umbrella ft. Jay Z.
Harry Styles secures this week’s highest new entry at Number 4 with Lights Up, his second Top 10 as a soloist. Lewis Capaldi claims a Top 10 slot this week too; Bruises rises five to Number 9. Ed Sheeran is right behind at Number 10; featuring Camila Cabello & Cardi B, South of the Border is this week’s highest climber, up 18 places to 10.
