Chart Commentary

For the second week in a row, we have a #1 debut, and this week it comes from my most anticipated single release for a long time. Harry Styles released his solo single Sign of the Times on Friday and just hours later (I type my chart up on Friday evenings), he topped my chart, becoming the first song to top my chart on release day since Sorry by Justin Bieber in October 2015. It's the second 1D solo single to make #1 after Louis Tomlinson's Just Hold On last December, and overall it's Harry's twelfth #1 hit. Sign of the Times isn't the first time he's made my chart as a solo artist in fact, as leaked demo Don't Let Me Go briefly made my chart in 2013. It saw a resurgence this week but not quite enough to re-enter my top 40.

 

Harry Styles

2013 27 Don't Let Me Go | DEMO | 28-32-27-38-X (4 weeks)

2017 01 Sign of the Times | 1 | 1-... (1+ weeks)

 

One Direction: Debut Solo Singles

2016 06 PILLOWTALK (ZAYN) | 1 | 30-6-15-27-36-X (5 weeks)

2016 05 This Town (Niall Horan) | 1 | 24-5-9-14-17-23-28-38-X (8 weeks)

2016 01 Just Hold On (Louis Tomlinson & Steve Aoki) | 1 | 1-2-4-6-11-14-22-29-34-37-X (10 weeks)

2017 01 Sign of the Times (Harry Styles) | 1 | 1-... (1+ weeks)

Earning their third top 5 hit this week are American boyband The Tide. They debuted in my chart around a year ago with promotional single Young Love, which made it to #2, before scoring their first #1 hit with Click My Fingers in August. Put the Cuffs On Me is this week's highest climber, up 24 places to #4, although fails to shift either of last week's top 2 songs, which both drop a place but are holding strong.

 

The Tide

2016 02 Young Love | 1 | 13-2-4-6-13-22-26-35-X-10-7-9-12-19-25-29-37-X (16 non-consecutive weeks)

2016 01 Click My Fingers | 2 | 13-1-7-4-3-9-14-19-26-29-33-34-37-32-35-34-X-26-X (17 non-consecutive weeks)

2017 04 Put the Cuffs On Me | 3 | 28-4-... (2+ weeks)

Rag'n'Bone Man re-enters at #8 this week with Skin, after it previously made #14 in its first chart run. Skin becomes the British singer/songwriter's first top 10 hit, following on from Human which made #16 at the end of last year.

 

Rag'n'Bone Man

2016 16 Human | 1 | 39-X-18-16-23-26-33-X (6 non-consecutive weeks)

2017 08 Skin | 2 | 22-31-19-18-14-22-32-X-8-... (8+ non-consecutive weeks)

Debuting outside the top 10 is will.i.am, who returns after just under a year with new single Fiyah. Previous hit Boys & Girls made #12, and is his first song to chart without a featured artist since Bang Bang charted at #19 in 2013. His fellow The Voice Kids UK coach Pixie Lott makes her chart return at #21, alongside Anton Powers who is the only artist to score their debut hit this week. Baby is Pixie's first chart hit since Caravan of Love, which made #9 in 2014. Also on the topic of The Voice UK, previous contestant Becky Hill is new at #25 with Rude Love - not her highest peak overall but her highest as a solo artist, beating her only other hit Losing (#30).

 

Alongside Harry Styles and Rag'n'Bone Man, there are new chart peaks this week for Julia Michaels, Machine Gun Kelly and Martin Jensen.

Also good to see Avril make a return to your albums chart 10 years on *.*

Hey Joseph!

 

I expected nothing less than to see Harry Styles at the top of your chart this week! :lol:

 

I'm surprisingly in love with it myself, it's so different to what I was expecting, it's so mature and sophisticated. :o

 

I haven't taken to Cheat Codes new single yet, but I hope I come to like it. :)

 

Great to see Skin re-enter too. :)

 

Baby and Swalla are two great new entries this week which I'd like to see do well officially too.

 

Please be sure to check out my chart for this week — Top 40 Countdown by awardinary (W/E 13/04/2017).

 

Great chart as always. ^_^

Hi Joseph

 

We share the same amazing number 1. :yahoo: Harry's song is so beautiful.

Is The Tide the new The Vamps? ;)

Surprise, surprise, I like Swalla. :o

 

Good chart!

Hi Joseph,

 

Great new entry at no 1 from scary Harry :cheer:

Love all the other new entries to!

Great climber on 4 from The Tide :yahoo:

Hi Joseph,

 

Zedd re-entering :cheer:

 

Nice entry for Derulo :)

 

Nice jump back for Little Mix :yahoo: Video effect?ç

 

Yasss at Julia climbing back too :dance:

 

I need to listen to that N.1... I was a 1D fan but I'm only excited for Niall (I became a 1D fun because of him :D ) :wub:

Hey Joseph :)

 

1. Harry Styles - Sign of the Times - 1- ** HIGHEST NEW ENTRY ** Well there's a shocker :o :lol: I wasn't sure what to make of it at first but it's actually a pretty decent song, and fair play to him to not try and chase trends. I can't understand why people are saying it's not commercial though, it is a commercial sound, just not the current trend. Anyway I hope he can hang on to the No. 1, though in any case I can see this getting some chart longevity.

2. Cheat Codes feat. Demi Lovato - No Promises - 1-2-

4. The Tide - Put the Cuffs On Me - 28-4- ** HIGHEST CLIMBER **

5. Clean Bandit feat. Zara Larsson - Symphony - 18-3-1-3-5-

6. Louisa Johnson - Best Behaviour - 17-1-2-4-6-

8. Rag'n'Bone Man - Skin - 22-31-19-18-14-22-32-X-8- Lovely to see this re-enter so high and also to be doing well officially :wub:

9. Anne-Marie - Ciao Adios - 5-2-5-6-5-7-4-8-9-

14. will.i.am - Fiyah - 14- Really surprised this didn't do a little bit better, after all he's still a big enough name, hosts a show on prime time TV and performed it on said show! Of course it didn't help that it wasn't on Spotify's New Music Friday playlist, I never understand how they decide what makes that list :unsure:

17. Julia Michaels - Issues - 25-39-X-35-27-17-

20. Little Mix feat. Machine Gun Kelly - No More Sad Songs - 12-21-28-32-20-

22. Martin Jensen - Solo Dance - 35-22-

24. Kygo & Selena Gomez - It Ain't Me - 11-3-4-6-9-13-18-24-

25. Becky Hill - Rude Love - 25- She really deserves a big solo hit by now, though I doubt this is going to give her it.

27. Katy Perry feat. Skip Marley - Chained to the Rhythm - 9-1-4-5-8-11-15-19-27-

29. Lorde - Green Light - 39-4-8-14-20-29-

30. Martin Garrix & Dua Lipa - Scared to Be Lonely - 1-1-3-7-9-13-17-24-24-30-

32. Jason Derulo feat. Nicki Minaj & Ty Dolla $ign - Swalla - 32- Really enjoying this now, after an initial lukewarm reception to it. I still think it can be a hit too! R1 playlisting it still isn't out of the question either.

33. Tinashe - Flame - 39-34-33-

37. Zak Abel - Unstable - 10-4-9-10-14-19-26-31-37-

Excellent stuff as per :D
