Ed Sheeran’s Bad Habits claims an eighth week at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart, enjoying a boost this week thanks to the release of a drill remix of the track featuring rappers Tion Wayne and Central Cee, remixed by London-based producer Fumez The Engineer.

In total, Bad Habits tallies up 11 million streams this week, and continues to lead on digital downloads too. With eight weeks at the top, Bad Habits now matches Ed’s run at the summit with 2019 Justin Bieber collaboration I Don’t Care.

­Meanwhile, Becky Hill & David Guetta’s Remember climbs two to Number 3, becoming Becky’s second-highest charting single to date, and David Guetta’s third Top 3 hit of 2021.

Digga D scores the week’s highest new entry at Number 6 with Wasted ft. ArrDee, both rappers’ second UK Top 10.

Elsewhere in the Top 10, Industry Baby by Lil Nas X & Jack Harlow climbs four to Number 7 – Lil Nas X’s third Top 10 single and Jack Harlow’s first – while Talk About by Rain Radio & DJ Craig Gorman jumps five to Number 9. KSI’s Holiday rebounds two to Number 10.

So proud to see TONES&I getting so close to get a 2nd Top 10!! Who saw that coming? when so many thought a year ago she was a one hit wonder in the UK??!! Shame her new album never charted in the UK!! It is a fun album but at least it made it to the number 1 album chart in her native Australia!!

It looks like 'Stay' won't make it to #1 here after all! :(

Interesting to see Elton John back in the Top 40 in 2021 though, haha.

well to be fair, stay may of got #1 this week, it because there add different versions like remixes of Bad Habits for a boost i think it may of done about just 40K but not 87K units, that is a real problem with Radio 1 Charts and always have, feel it should not/never be allow is adding different versions to count as one huge unit, it should only be one version only! least the Big Top 40 doesn't do that.

I still think 'Bad Habits' would've been #1 even without the drill remix! :P
