10 years ago, Justin Timberlake finally scored his very first Number 1 in the UK, almost four years after launching his solo career.
The song that made him a chart-topper was, of course, SexyBack – perhaps the pop world's greatest song about taking something back to a shop. What's more, he's still racking up global smashes today; his current single Can't Stop The Feeling has just hit a huge milestone in the UK - more on that below... To celebrate, we've had a good old poke through the archives, crunched some numbers and revealed his biggest songs. The Top 5 Counting sales and streams, Justin's Top 5 looks a little something like this: Justin's current single has been a runaway hit, notching up combined sales of just over one million (1.008m to be precise, split between downloads and streams pretty much 50/50) to become his biggest hit yet. The track, taken from the movie Trolls, was kept off Number 1 by chart-topping juggernaut One Dance, from Drake. Mirrors was a big comeback for Justin when it hit Number 1 in 2013. It was his first chart-topper in almost five years and paved the way for his first album for SEVEN years – The 20/20 Experience Part 1. Mirrors ruled the top spot for three weeks and has a stellar combined chart sales tally of 929,000. Up next? That very first chart-topper. SexyBack was another career-defining moment for JT, shifting away from the poppy R&B of debut album Justified and homing in on a sharper, more electronic sound. Despite distorted vocals and barely making a cameo himself on his own chorus – leaving the bulk of the work to his old pal Timbaland – SexyBack became a signature track for Justin and went straight in at the top, with over 645,000 chart sales to its name. Justin is famed for his all-star collaborations, and up in fourth is possibly his starriest of them all. Justin teamed up with Madonna for 4 Minutes, the lead single from her 2008 album Hard Candy. It was a winning combination – the track spent 4 weeks at Number 1, which is Justin's longest run at the top, and boasts over 539,000 combined sales. Rounding off our Top 5 is Justin's biggest song from 2003 debut album is Cry Me A River, the one that got everybody talking. Fresh form his breakup with Britney Spears, Justin played on public interest by casting a woman who had more than a passing resemblance to his ex in the video. Match that with the song's theme of infidelity and you've got tabloid gold, basically – not to mention chart gold! Cry Me A River got no further than Number 2 – kept off the top by tATu's All The Things She Said – but has over 504,000 chart sales under its belt. Other notable entries Another megastar collaboration, this time with hip-hop legend Jay Z, finishes just outside the Top 5. Holy Grail was JT's last Top 10 hit before Can't Stop The Feeling, reaching Number 7 in 2013. Its chart sales tally stands at 451,000. Ciara collabo Love Sex & Magic just misses Justin's Top 10 big ones, as do his solo debut Like I Love You (Number 2 in 2002) and his 2007 Number 1 with Timbaland, Give It To Me. It may not have made the Top 10, but Rihanna teamup Rehab – try saying that after a few vodka and tonics – still comes in 17th, with Senorita, the only single from Justified to miss the Top 10, right behind it.
