Streaming is up by about a quarter from last week, and it has a massive 80% lead over the number two single (the previous number one, &#8220;Pink Pony Club&#8221;), so this is a big hit. There&#8217;s spillover interest in his other singles too: <strong>&#8220;Carry You Home&#8221;\u00a0<\/strong>and <strong>&#8220;Burning Down&#8221;<\/strong> reached new peaks last week at 20 and 28, but now climb to 10 and 23 respectively.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ordinary&#8221; is still making slow headway in Warren&#8217;s native USA, but it&#8217;s reached number one in Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Norway and the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>26.

This is the title track from his second album, and it&#8217;s been out for six months.

This is more surprising &#8211; although the other Drake album tracks faded away quickly, &#8220;Nokia&#8221; has spent the last five weeks hovering between 19 and 20, and now seems to be showing signs of actual life.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Show Me Love&#8221; by WizTheMC and bees &amp; honey<\/strong> climbs 38-14 in its second week on chart, which is a massive climb.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Love Me Not&#8221; by Ravyn Lenae<\/strong> climbs 26-19.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Dark Thoughts&#8221; by Lil Tecca<\/strong> climbs 30-20.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Burning Down&#8221; by Alex Warren<\/strong> climbs 28-23.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Sorry I&#8217;m Here For Someone Else&#8221; by Benson Boone<\/strong> climbs 27-24 (though it&#8217;s still overshadowed by &#8220;Beautiful Things&#8221; up at number 4).<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Hometown Glory&#8221; by Adele<\/strong> climbs to 29 after re-entering at 31 last week.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Running Around&#8221; by Ely Oaks<\/strong> climbs 40-36.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The five tracks leaving the top 40 are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>&#8220;People Watching&#8221; by Sam Fender<\/strong>, which peaked at number 4 in November, dropped out for three weeks over Christmas, and has otherwise been around ever since.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;A N X I E T Y&#8221; by Sleepy Hallow featuring Doechii<\/strong>, which entered at 15 and lasted three weeks but has now been comprehensively overshadowed by the Doechii track it samples (currently at number 3)&#8221;<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;Toxic&#8221; by Playboi Carti &amp; Skepta<\/strong>, after a single week at number 21.
