Shocked and chagrinned at the failure to mention poor much-maligned Drake being in the top 15 on both sales and streams with 'God's Plan' but shunted down to a mere #16 by ACR rules.

You have forgotten (don't blame you tbh) Feels which was Calvin's last chart-topper last year!

I didn't realise that Ten Tonnes was George Ezra's brother! Loved his single "Silver Heat" from last year.

As Kylie has her 6th UK No.1 Album, I thought that I'd show the Female Solo Artists
with the most Singles + Albums Weeks at No.1.

NOTE -- In case anyone wonders where Kate Bush is - she is 146th= with 10 No.1 Weeks
- 4 No.1 Singles Weeks and 6 No.1 Albums Weeks. Britney Spears is 188th= with 8 No.1
Singles Weeks & Zero No.1 Albums Weeks.

Much maligned by whom?

I didn't realise it until quite recently. Now that I know, the family resemblance is definitely there.

I'm sure 9 weeks at #1 will be some consolation.
