Sam Fender &amp; Olivia Dean &#8211; &#8220;Rein Me In&#8221;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Seven weeks non consecutive. While it&#8217;s 43 weeks old and past its peak, it continues to evade the ACR downweighting rule. To go to ACR, the test isn&#8217;t simply that a track has received fewer chart points several weeks running; it has to be underperforming the market average. &#8220;Rein Me In&#8221; outperformed a weak market this week, and so it&#8217;s not going to ACR for another few weeks at least. And it has no obvious challengers &#8211; it&#8217;s 10,000 ahead of Bella Kay at number 2, and she&#8217;ll go to ACR next week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>28.

This isn&#8217;t one of them.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sign of the Times&#8221; was Harry Styles&#8217; debut solo single in 2017, and had a week at number 1. It&#8217;s back now because it&#8217;s used in the soundtrack of <em>Project Hail Mary<\/em>, which is fair enough. I liked the film a lot, although it&#8217;s fair to say that much will turn on how you feel about Ryan Gosling, because believe me, it&#8217;s pretty much two and a half hours of non-stop Gosling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>29.

ANOTR are a production duo from Amsterdam who&#8217;ve been around for a decade or so, and this is their first UK hit. They don&#8217;t seem to go in for making music videos.<\/p>\n<p>54 Ultra is a guy called John Anthony from New Jersey, also getting his first UK hit. As best as I can tell, this is an actual collaboration rather than a sample. 54 Ultra&#8217;s own music sounds very different, however &#8211; he&#8217;s more of a 70s throwback act. This is his own current single.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/77UwCfvGX6k\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>40.

Malcolm Todd is a songwriter from LA who&#8217;s had some modest viral success in the past, though not in the UK. He actually has a single to promote at the moment, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=g1uEqR5eFMo\">&#8220;Breathe&#8221;<\/a>, which seems to be the lead single from his new album. That&#8217;s doing nothing, though &#8211; instead, TikTok has unearthed this track from his 2024 mixtape &#8220;Sweet Boy&#8221;.
