but it&#8217;s the remix with Justin Bieber that&#8217;s actually given it a second lease of life. \u00a0It climbs 16-5 this week, though that&#8217;s partly because it had drifted onto the lower stream weighting for singles which have been out for months and are clearly past their peak &#8211; the chart rules allow for that to be reset if a track starts regaining momentum.<\/p>\n<p><strong>12. \u00a0Sam Smith &#8211; &#8220;How Do You Sleep&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PmYypVozQb4\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Well, there&#8217;s a heatwave and we don&#8217;t have air conditioning in this country, so &#8220;with difficulty&#8221;, I guess. \u00a0This has some annoying excessive vocal processing considering that it&#8217;s Sam Smith, who&#8217;s a\u00a0<em>singer<\/em>, you know? \u00a0That aside, this isn&#8217;t at all bad, and the video gets some mileage out of having him dance for a change.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;3 Nights&#8221; by Dominic Fike <\/strong>edges up one more place to 14, now in its tenth week on the top 40. \u00a0<strong>&#8220;Higher Love&#8221; by Kygo &amp; Whitney Houston<\/strong> climbs to 15 &#8211; her biggest hit in the immediate aftermath of her death was number 14 (&#8220;I Will Always Love You&#8221;, obviously), and clearly this has a decent shot of beating it. \u00a0Her final\u00a0<em>real<\/em> hit single, &#8220;Million Dollar Bill&#8221;, reached number 5, which is further off. \u00a0<strong>&#8220;Castles&#8221; by Freya Ridings<\/strong> climbs 26-18 on the release of her self-titled debut album (which is at number 3 on the album chart). \u00a0<strong>&#8220;Find U Again&#8221; by Mark Ronson featuring Camila Cabello<\/strong> is up from 30 to 27. \u00a0<strong>&#8220;Ritual&#8221; by Tiesto, Jonas Blue &amp; Rita Ora<\/strong> climbs 40-28, so it&#8217;s getting traction after all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>36. \u00a0Ellie Goudling &amp; Juice WRLD &#8211; &#8220;Hate Me&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UZwi9SHgzGY\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>This is&#8230;
