I'm going to kill Beyonce....
It's Beyonce's fault for not allowing it to be streamed on spotify which is nearly 1/2 responsible of this chart.
Hold Up
Sales - #5
Audio Streaming - # N/A
Overall - #24

She's annoying. She always does stuff like this. The Beyhive rebellion is coming for someone to take control of how her singles should 've handles because her actions sabatage their success.

Congratulations for Red Hot Chili Peppers entering at 97 with their new single! I hope it climbs but top 40 is offset considering rock is over 95% dead nowadays.

Huge congratulations to Drake for a fifth week at #1 on the UK Singles Chart with 'One Dance'. It now ties for the longest #1 song of the year so far (as Lukas Graham's '7 Years' spent five weeks at the top too). Also it looks like 'Views' has had a big impact on our charts this week too: 2 new entries in the Top 40 & it was also last week's #1 album.
Also great to see Justin Timberlake & DJ Snake reach the Top 10 with their new songs. Congratulations to will.i.am, Benny Benassi & Cheat Codes for their Top 40 new entries too. :)

I'm actually kind of slightly hoping One Dance will beat 7 Years to become biggest selling song of 2016 at the end of the year. It might have a shot since streaming now counts in end of year charts.

I hope it does as well really. '7 Years' is okay but I think 'One Dance' is an amazing single. :) Like you said streaming will help Drake too; he had a record-breaking 8.95 million streams last week & 8.37 million this week!

Spread the love and share it with your friends, I'd appreciate it and they will too (maybe not haha). Thanks!

This is not a singles chart anymore. It's a songs chart. It seems to me it's a trades description f**k up to call it a singles chart when you are lucky to find a physical new release single these days. The Official Charts should rebrand from Official Singles Chart to Official Songs Chart.

Skepta is a grime artist and more recently is well known around the world, his album was released on his own label 'boy better know' (just him and few close friends) and is now top 20 in over 20 countries, he's showcasing the darker side of london life, well respected !!

If your referring to skepta, his album consists of 12 singles, you can buy them separately .. Official songs chart sounds more like an album chart because you said 'songs'

I guess neither of the songs in the top 3 could replace "One Dance" this week...

Justin Timberlake might.

Without streaming on his side, J.T. will never replace One Dance

"Can't Stop the Feeling" has just bypassed "TIWYCF" by 6,000 chart sales, if it keeps it up, it could replace One Dance which could slip down to number 3.

I wasn't sure then, you don't know what to expect until they reveal the updates on sales. So right now, that's a given.

Two of them are re-entries, so there are actually six new entries from Skepta...
