The Script's Official Top 10 biggest songs
The Script have enjoyed huge success on the Official Chart pretty much from the get-go. Just a year after forming in 2007 the Irish rock-pop band scored their first Number 1 album - and they've remained in the upper echelons of the chart ever since.
13 years and several chart-topping records later, Danny O'Donoghue, Mark Sheehah and Glen Power are taking a moment to look back at their achievements with a new career-spanning greatest hits album titled Tales From The Script, led by new track I Want It All.

Four of The Script's singles have racked up over 1 million chart sales in the UK - the biggest Script song of them all is Hall Of Fame, with a mighty 1.78 million chart sales, including 111 million streams. Their first and currently only Number 1 single, the collaboration with will.i.am was released in 2012, when both were coaches on The Voice UK. The rousing pop-rock-rap hybrid is underpinned by a stadium sized chorus - a cornerstone of the band's success when it comes to their singles.

The Script's second biggest single is The Man Who Can't Be Moved (1.57m), a Number 2 hit in 2008 (losing out on the top spot to Katy Perry's I Kissed A Girl) and their proper breakthrough hit following their Top 20 debut single We Cry. In third place is Breakeven which, despite peaking at Number 21, has 1.17 million chart sales and is arguably their most enduring hit. The track also earned them considerable Stateside success, where it peaked at Number 12.
2014's Top 3 hit Superheroes ranks as their fourth biggest single with 907,000 chart sales, while 2010's For The First Time - the lead single from their second album Science & Faith, rounds out the Top 5 on 770,000. Further down, 2017's Rain places sixth, and their most recent Top 40 entry, 2019's The Last Time, is eighth.
