LF SYSTEM secure third week at Number 1 with Afraid To Feel as Burna Boy's Last Last continues to rise

LF SYSTEM have secured a third consecutive week at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart with Afraid To Feel.  

The Scottish DJ duo once again have the most-streamed track in the country – Afraid To Feel retains its chart-topping status with over 6.7 million streams to its name, succeeding in keeping nearest rival Harry Styles and As It Was at Number 2. It’s also the most bought song of the week on digital downloads. See LF SYSTEM’s Official Charts history in full here. 

But has a challenger for the crown just made themselves known? After weeks of upward trajectory, Afrobeats legend Burna Boy cracks the Top 5 for the first time with the fast-rising Last Last. Jumping up three spots to a new peak of Number 4, it’s his first solo Top 5 record in the UK (having previously featured on Stormzy’s 2020 chart-topper Own It with Ed Sheeran.) Can it go even further next week? 

It’s another great week for Ella Henderson on the Official Singles Chart, who reaches new peaks with two Top 10 singles; Crazy What Love Can Do with David Guetta and Becky Hill climbs to Number 6, while 21 Reasons with Nathan Dawe is up to Number 9.
