Olivia Rodrigo’s Drivers License extends reign at top of Official Singles Chart to seventh week
Olivia Rodrigo’s Drivers License makes it seven weeks at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart.
The most streamed song of the week with 5.6 million plays, Drivers License extends its reign at the summit, fending off competition from Lil Tjay & 6LACK’s Calling My Phone (2) and Nathan Evans’ Wellerman remix with 220 Kid and Billen Ted (3).
Seven consecutive weeks at the top marks the longest stint at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart since Tones & I’s Dance Monkey, which spent 11 weeks at Number 1 between October and December 2019.

She got Number one, only one week on Sales and Download Charts so far!, She got 7 Weeks of Number 1 though playlists control of streaming and Ratios of ACR-SCR for Singles and radio1, the charts Singles adds ghost/streaming points to units/or now total copies than sale copies, the charts on singles was more accurately before 2014 I still listening to the charts on the radio , i have since a kid for singles charts but i think we all miss those days of just pure sales than streaming points

New releases have been a dead zone as of late, and currently nothing on the charts seems to be in contention for #1, so if this keeps up, we should expect 'Drivers License' to stay at the summit for 10 weeks.
Joshua Sombra
No, no, no
Joshua Sombra
God no
Joshua Sombra
It is a rubbish song.
Joshua Sombra
It will be knocked off No.1 next week.
Joshua Sombra
I hope this is the last week of 'Drivers License' being No.1 because if not I will not come back to this website ever again.

What about when Bryan Adams spent 16 weeks at number 1.!!
Joshua Sombra
Yes but 'Driver's License' could never do that. That doesn't change my opinion anyway. I still think this is the last week that the song is going to be No.1.
BleeUK
Yeah driver license won’t be number one for more than ten weeks due to acr kicks in it only been top since the last 6 week due to streaming points only one week at the top on proper sales
BleeUK
Don’t worry the way u can look at it is the proper sales chart driver’s license only been top only one week max wellerman been top for many week and let’s go home together is currently number one sales , radio 1 uses streaming points to units.
BleeUK
I believe that frankie Laine was the most weeks at top for 18 weeks . Everything is so different now with streaming points and acr to scr ratios for units
Joshua Sombra
Hopefully not 10 weeks but 7 weeks is enough now.

Dance monkey by Tones and I... lately had 11 weeks at number one.!
Joshua Sombra
Yeah, that is great.
Joshua Sombra
But I think now is the time for a new No.1.
Joshua Sombra
No.1 is boring. New No.1 next week.

Clive Jones
Everything I do (I do it for you)..16 weeks at number 1..!..in 1991.... remember it well.!

We need a new #1 now, but it's nice to see Tom Grennan finally make a breakthrough!
I'm also happy to see new peaks for: 'Heat Waves', 'My Head & My Heart' & 'Arcade'. :)
Rob Parkinson
Yes Piran! It has to be my favorite week on the charts for a long time simply because Tom Grennan got 2 top 40 hits in 1 week and even bagged the highest new entry with Ella Henderson beating Ariana Grande's new single! That is a great feat the way Ariana has been flying so high in the charts over last few years.
Am loving the climbs for 'heat waves' 'my head & my heart' & 'arcade' too. :)
Piran
I really thought you'd be happy about this week! :D
It's awesome how Tom Grennan went from having no Top 40 hits before today, to his first two in the same chart, haha.
Rob Parkinson
I know, I guess a lot of people think a top 100 is nothing but it is an amazing achievement when you see the number of tracks released each week. The top 100 is a great achievement in my eyes and a top 40 is phenomenal! Let alone 2 at the same time! So happy
Piran
Definitely! I've been hearing about Tom Grennan for a long time, so it's finally good to see him break into the upper reaches of the chart. :)
Piran
Did you see that he's got the Top 2 songs on the Big Top 40?! :O
He's got the new #1 with 'Let's Go Home Together', as well as the highest climber of the week with 'Little Bit Of Love' (34-2).
Rob Parkinson
:O wow no I didn't! Thanks for that Piran, I'm really impressed and so happy right now! Hopefully finally hitting the big time!
Piran
Yeah. hopefully he's here to stay! ;)
