Sabrina Carpenter &#8211; &#8220;Taste&#8221;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Seven weeks. This brings her total to 19 for the year, across her three number one singles. This either matches or beats Ed Sheeran&#8217;s total from 2021 (depending on how you feel about the chart announced on 31 December that year). The only solo act to spend more weeks at number 1 in a calendar year is Frankie Laine, who was number one for most of 1953. To match him, she&#8217;d have to stay at number one for another eight weeks, which seems wildly unlikely. Sales figures suggest a lot of the top 10 is about to be hit by the downweighting rule, so we might <em>finally<\/em> be due for a clearout.<\/p>\n<p><strong>14. KSI featuring Trippie Redd &#8211; &#8220;Thick Of It&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/At8v_Yc044Y?si=HuSLQ3-GOXA1hyRf\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>First time we&#8217;ve seen KSI this year. His last couple of singles both entered fairly strongly and plunged in the second week, which might suggest he&#8217;s becoming a fanbase act &#8211; but this single seems decent enough. He and Trippie Redd had a single in early 2020, &#8220;Wake Up Call&#8221;, which got to number 11; Trippie Redd&#8217;s only other top 40 single was his own &#8220;Miss the Rage&#8221;, which had a single week at number 32 in 2021.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s the only regular new entry this week. We also have some improbable re-entries down in the 30s, though.<\/p>\n<p><strong>34. c\u00e4sso x Raye x D-Block Europe &#8211; &#8220;Prada&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zFMYL0XQ3lA?si=aer0pvP61NF3RJlr\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Apparently this is having a resurgence on TikTok. It dropped out of the top 100 last month so it&#8217;s a true re-entry rather than something that&#8217;s just hovering around the 40 mark (such as Jimin&#8217;s &#8220;Who&#8221;, which reappears at 31 this week). &#8220;Prada&#8221; spent five weeks at number 2 just before the Christmas flood in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, Radio 1 seem to think that &#8220;Prada&#8221; is an acceptable title to announce on air, but &#8220;Diet Pepsi&#8221; isn&#8217;t. The logic of this distinction is not easy to follow.<\/p>\n<p><strong>37.

It&#8217;s here because it appears in Netflix&#8217;s <em>Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story<\/em>, believe it or not. Even more improbably, that series also explains this:<\/p>\n<p><strong>40.

(&#8220;Girl You Know It&#8217;s True&#8221; reached number 3 the previous year, nothing else made the top 10.) The chart compilers are actually listing it under its alternate title of &#8220;I&#8217;m Gonna Miss You&#8221;, which results in it being incorrectly shown on the chart as a new entry.<\/p>\n<p>This week&#8217;s climbers:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Die With a Smile&#8221; by Lady Gaga &amp; Bruno Mars<\/strong> has now moved 7-7-7-6-5-4-4-3, edging its way painfully through the logjam.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Sailor Song&#8221; by Gigi Perez<\/strong> climbs 11-6, and seems to be well placed if we do get a clearout.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Somedays&#8221; by Sonny Fodera, Jazzy &amp; DOD<\/strong> climbs 10-8 (two weeks after peaking at 9).<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;I Love You I&#8217;m Sorry&#8221; by Gracie Abrams<\/strong> climbs 19-11.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Pink Pony Club&#8221; by Chappell Roan<\/strong> climbs 17-13. Meanwhile, &#8220;Good Luck Babe&#8221; remains stuck at 2, and &#8220;Hot To Go&#8221; falls to 10.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Diet Pepsi&#8221; by Addison Rae<\/strong> climbs 22-15.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;We Pray&#8221; by Coldplay<\/strong> climbs 32-20 on the back of the album release (see below), while &#8220;Feelslikeimfallinginlove&#8221; rebounds to 18 (still two places below its peak).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The five tracks leaving the top 40 are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Carry You Home&#8221; by Alex Warren<\/strong>, which peaked at 32 but lasted a month.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Dancing in the Flames&#8221; by the Weeknd<\/strong>. This is interesting &#8211; it entered at 12, and it&#8217;s gone after three weeks. The follow-up single &#8220;Timeless&#8221; entered at 7 last week, but drops straight to 17. In a very slow-moving chart, this seems notable.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Austin&#8221; by Dasha<\/strong> finally leaves us after a 30-week run that peaked at number 5. It spend 21 weeks in the top 10.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Burning Down&#8221; by Alex Warren<\/strong>, which peaked at 35 and only lasted two weeks.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Going Crazy&#8221; by Nines<\/strong> after a single week at number 62.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The longest running track on the chart is still <strong>&#8220;Lose Control&#8221; by Teddy Swims<\/strong>, with a 41 week run. It falls from 29 to 32 this week.<\/p>\n<p>On the album chart:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Coldplay &#8211; &#8220;Moon Music&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Continuing a perfect record of number 1s with studio albums, and featuring the singles already mentioned. Coldplay are still a huge draw in the album market: this album shifted 182,166 copies on compact disc in its first week. Across all formats and its streaming points, it beat the rest of the top 40 combined.<\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;ve now had ten number 1 albums, which puts them on a level with Abba, Michael Jackson and Queen.
