Justin Bieber's Top 40 biggest songs on the Official UK Chart

With over ten incredibly successful years in music under his belt, it's easy to forget that Justin Bieber is still a young player in pop.

He was the original YouTuber rags-to-riches star, discovered by his still-manager Scotter Braun and signed to Usher's record label RBMG. R&B-flavoured pop quickly became his signature sound, helmed by some of the world's biggest producers at the time, including The-Dream, Darkchild and Tricky Stewart. 

Now turning 28 years old (yes, really), Justin has 7 UK Number 1 singles, 2 UK Number 1 albums and a mammoth 57 entries in the Official Singles Chart Top 40. But which of these hits come out on top?

In the UK, Justin's singles from 2015's Purpose album rank among his most popular. According to Official Charts Company data, combining paid-for sales and streaming equivalent sales, Number 1 hit Sorry is his second biggest track with 2.8 million chart sales, made up of 225 million streams and 742,000 pure sales.

Two more Purpose singles follow close behind on his all-time Top 40: Love Yourself in third (2.7 million) and the album's lead release What Do You Mean in fourth (2.33 million). All three songs reached Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart and earned Justin a record as the only artist in UK chart history to occupy Numbers 1, 2 and 3 on the singles chart in the same week. 

Justin has been a keen collaborator throughout his career, teaming up with the likes of Ludacris, DJ Khaled, Nicki Minaj, David Guetta and Major Lazer. His biggest song overall in the UK is also a collaboration; his 2017 team-up with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee on Despacito, with 3.47 million UK chart sales. Justin jumped on a remix of the Spanish-language song three months after its original release after he saw the response to it in a Colombian nightclub. The result was an 11-week UK Number 1 and the second biggest song of 2017.

Other popular Justin collaborations in his all-time Top 40 include 2019's I Don't Care with Ed Sheeran at 5 (2.1m) Cold Water with Major Lazer and Mo at 6 (1.72m), Let Me Love You with DJ Snake at 7 (1.63m) and 2015 single Where Are U Now with Skrillex and Diplo at 8 (1.52m).

Justin's first UK Top 10 hit, Baby ft. Ludacris from 2010, places tenth in his Top 40 with 871,000 chart sales, while his Christmas single Mistletoe, which is growing in popularity year-on-year, places 11th on 797,000. 

When it comes to Justin's albums, 2015's Purpose leads the pack with 1.38 million chart sales, making it 4x Platinum, followed by his 2010 debut My World (849,000) in second and 2012's Believe (260,000) in third.
