Actually, there’s been three, since ‘Last Christmas’ & ‘Sweet Melody’ both got to #1 this year. :)

Besides, we're absolutely getting a fourth tomorrow & it'll almost certainly be 'Wellerman'!

It's not "ruined music" at all! It's just made the charts a little bit less exciting than what we were seeing a few years ago. :)

Actually, 'Last Christmas' was at #1 from the 1st to the 7th of January this year!

Yeah, hopefully the next Top 10 after ACR gets the current one is better.

I thought I put 33 as well, that’s definitely what I counted. 🤔

I was hoping that song wasn't No.1 and it was again. How dare you people listen to that song. You guys have to illegally download DL to make it flop, it is such a stupid song that no will ever like. People pretend that they like it.

You've Done Enough better not flop on the charts, this song doing well would really be a chart highlight for me! Also, I'm surprised that BED has only gained three places in the last week, I'm really hoping this one reaches at least the top ten!

Top 10 hits of the year so far - week 11:
1 (1) Kid Laroi - Without You 758 (690)
2 (2) Meduza / Dermot Kennedy 730 (663)
3 (3) Shane Codd - Get Out Of My Head 719 (659)
4 (4) Ed Sheeran - Afterglow 704 (655)
5 (6) Oliver Rodrigo - Drivers License 675 (600)
6 (5) Justin Beiber - Anyone 655 (602)
7 (10) Tiesto - The Business 643 (570)

8 (7) Little Mix - Sweet Melody 629 (599)
9 (9) Miley Cyrus / Dua Lipa - Prisoner 628 (599)
10 (8) Ariana Grande - 34+35 609 (581)

All 10 are still on chart, so the movements are still slow. There are still 17 hits that have been on chart every week, including 7 of the top 10 above.
11 weeks in and the top 10 of the year hasn't yet contained a single that has dropped out of the top 75

A lower hit to watch: Wellerman is #18, with 515 points. I expect it to be on the list in 2 weeks, especially if the likes of 34+35 and Sweet Melody keep dropping the way they are.

I have also been making a 'biggest songs of the year so far' list and updating it every week, however I'm only on Week 10. I'm not including the very first chart week of 2021 (posted on 1st Jan - filled with Christmas songs) because the sales + streams from that week are from the final week of 2020 and so will not count towards this year's overall chart. :)

Consistancy: top 10 every week this year, overall higher average position than any other record and a 2 week advantage over Drivers' License.

I think we're far enough into the year for the Christmas week to have minimal effect now. How different are your calculations to mine?

OMG YES what other people say is such a banger. Really hope it can get to the top 40 soon 🤞🤞🤞I agree drivers licence is getting boring but it is the last week at #1 for it most likely.

Disagree with you. Her song is so boring people like you should be ashamed that you even listened to that song.

I don't care if you disagree with me. I don't make comments for you or anyone approval. you should be ashamed to even respond to me with that kind of negative energy.

also, latest trends could climb into the top 10 after the aitch remix

i definitely think the aitch remix could propel latest trends into the top 10. i hope it manages to get there, it’s a great song even if the remix isn’t as good as the original.

That's disappointing. I get the appeal to Drivers License but I don't see how it could be Number 1 for 9 weeks.

We should have a new one next week looking at the sales figures though.

It could be Nathan Evans, Tiesto or maybe even KSI.

drivers license is still awesome, i love how it managed to get 9 weeks. it should be put on acr next week though.

i hope patience debuts at number 1 next week, it’s really good.

love your profile picture btw. ;)

Yeah, the song itself is okay. It's just boring seeing it at #1 for so long lol.

I think the next chart will certainly be an interesting one though.

Thank you. I love Kendrick. His messages are so powerful.

whatever bruh

I got my driver's license last week
Just like we always talked about
'Cause you were so excited for me
To finally drive up to your house
But today I drove through the suburbs
Crying 'cause you weren't around

And you're probably with that blonde girl
Who always made me doubt
She's so much older than me
She's everything I'm insecure about
Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
'Cause how could I ever love someone else?

And I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way for no one
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street

And all my friends are tired
Of hearing how much I miss you, but
I kinda feel sorry for them
'Cause they'll never know you the way that I do, yeah
Today I drove through the suburbs
And pictured I was driving home to you

And I know we weren't perfect
But I've never felt this way for no one, oh
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay, now that I'm gone
I guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street

Red lights, stop signs
I still see your face in the white cars, front yards
Can't drive past the places we used to go to
'Cause you know I still love you, babe (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Sidewalks we crossed
I still hear your voice in the traffic, we're laughing
Over all the noise
God, I'm so blue, know we're through
But you know I still love you, babe (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way for no one
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay, now that I'm gone
'Cause you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
Yeah you said forever, now I drive alone past your street
