All of Me by John Legend has become one of the UK’s biggest-selling singles of all time, Official Charts can reveal.

The soul singer’s love song has passed the million copies sales barrier (1.05 million as of this week), according to Official Charts Company data, and in doing so becomes the 156th single to reach the milestone in British charts history.

"I'm so grateful to my UK fans for making Love in The Future platinum and All of Me a million-seller,” John told Official Charts.

“What an amazing year! I'm looking forward to celebrating with you in person this summer."

All of Me, which is taken from his Platinum-selling album Love in the Future, first entered the Official Singles Chart at Number 28 on the week of Valentine’s Day in February last year. It has since spent 46 weeks on the UK Top 40, peaking at Number 2 April.

The song has also managed to notch up an impressive 18 consecutive weeks in the Top 10, before returning for a 19th week in November.

All of Me is John’s highest charting UK single to date, besting his previous peak of at Number 4 with Ordinary People in 2012 (first released in 2005). All of Me has also enjoyed massive success across the globe, peaking at Number 1 in 10 countries.

John plays five UK arena tour dates in June and July this year, kicking off at London’s O2 on June 25. Tickets are on sale now.
