Well, at least the Ed Sheeran log jam is broken…<\/p>\n
1. \u00a0Ed Sheeran – “Shape of You”<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n So I guess it’s time to start talking about the all-time records again. \u00a0“Shape of You” has now been number 1 for eleven straight weeks, matching\u00a0the\u00a0run of Slim Whitman’s “Rose Marie”<\/a> back in 1955. \u00a0Only three records have had longer reigns at number 1, though they’re still a little way out of reach: Drake’s “One Dance”\u00a0managed 15 weeks last year, as did Wet Wet Wet’s\u00a0version of “Love Is All Around” back in 1994. \u00a0And the all-time record of 16 weeks is still held by Bryan Adams’ “Everything I Do (I Do It For You)” from 1991. \u00a0That’s consecutive weeks, mind you – if you’re adding multiple reigns, then the record for most weeks at number 1 stands at 18, and has been held by Frankie Laine’s “I Believe” since 1953.<\/p>\n The\u00a0Sheeran domination finally starts to clear this week. \u00a0He still has\u00a0“Galway Girl” at 2 and “Castle on the Hill” at 3, but\u00a0other tracks are\u00a0dropping, and four of them are out of the top 40. \u00a0Mind you, that still gives him twelve concurrent hits, occupying numbers 1, 2, 3, 7, 11, 16, 21, 22, 26, 29 and 34.<\/p>\n 4. \u00a0Drake – “Passionfruit”<\/strong><\/p>\n
