It could be Ollys longest consecutive run i think. I hope in time dear darlin can eventually make platinum.

 

It was. 'Dance With Me Tonight' is his only song with more weeks in the top 100 (only 1 more week and spread over 4 separate runs).

Weird how 'Riptide' climbed from 20 to 14 in the mids from Wednesday to Friday, then ended up back down to 18 on Sunday... guess sales must be pretty close around that part of the chart.

Delighted Sub Focus made the top 10, very catchy song.

I searched for this and "Dance With Me Tonight" had only 29 weeks in the Top 100.

I'm not sure where you got that figure from because it definitely has 36.

I meant 29 consecutive weeks in the Top 100 (Not general). "Dear Darlin'" was 35 consecutive weeks in the Top 100.

I wasn't talking about consecutive weeks in that post :P As I said, 'Dear Darlin'' is his longest consecutive top 100 run.

7. "How Long Will I Love You"

40. "Somewhere Only We Know"

It's just strange seeing Ellie and Lily get further and further apart after being together in the top 10 for seven weeks (and side-by-side for three of them)!!

I should probably point out that I've decided to amalgamate Macklemore & Ryan Lewis into a duo rather than a collaboration of two artists as they don't seem to be parting any time soon (and Ryan has not released anything outside the duo).
