having an openly non-binary and an openly trans artist at #1 in 2022! #bigslay

I'm so pleased (and shocked) for Sam Smith. I really thought they were going to register a low Top 40 entry with this. A #1 debut is HUGE. And Kim Petras finally getting some chart success too!

Before it was released I don’t know I would’ve even predicted T40 for this, but I am so excited for Sam (and Kim)! Had it on repeat this week, and will continue to be doing so!

Sam Smith number 1 by 1379 sales.

As always sales thread will be up as soon as I've had time to extract the figures from the MW report so please bear with

Sam Smith number 1 by 1379 sales.

Where do you get this info from before the chart is even published

Do you work for the OCC lol

its weird that this is first top 75 hit considering how many bops she has released worldwide, she has an amazing discography... now its the time for her to relaunch her songs here...

 

 

UNHOLY is such a bop! love it and glad its #1

Wow didn’t expect that, go them !

It's undeniable Unholy was the most popular song of the week, not only in the UK but across the world, so well deserved #1

(even though I don't like the song)

so happy for kim petras too! she deserves chart success so i'm happy shes getting it

To think that Sam’s previous #1 was 4 years ago with "Promises" and this is also their first #1 of the 2020s

Sam Smith number 1 by 1379 sales.

Biography

 

There’s a lovely moment a little ways into Apple Music’s Songwriter documentary about Ed Sheeran in which Sheeran, jet-lagged and carrying a cup of tea, straggles out into a yard in Malibu at dawn, sits down at his laptop and begins writing a song about the moment right in front of him: the crisp air, the birdsong, the hot tea, the day ahead. He gets a full verse in, melody and all, then pauses. “Songs are weird things,” he says. “How so?” an interviewer asks. “They just come and go,” Sheeran says, smiling. “And they never give you any warning.” For Sheeran, they seem to come pretty reliably. Born in 1991 in Halifax, England, he started out gigging on the UK pub circuit before releasing his first studio album, +, in 2011, and has since become one of the most unstoppable singer-songwriters in music, forging a light blend of folk, pop, hip-hop and dance that feels slick but lived-in, intimate but universal. Whether on his own (“Sing”, “The A Team”, “Shape of You”, “Perfect”) or in collaboration with artists from Taylor Swift to Eminem to Justin Bieber, Sheeran has a unique ability to strike a chord that feels both bittersweet and redemptive, good-natured and genuine: the hopeless romantic who convinces you he might just be right. In 2017, he was made a Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, touching Prince Charles on the arm while shaking his hand—a breach of royal protocol, and an appealingly human one at that. - Apple Music

That was their last #1 by themselves. They’re still credited as a lead artist on 2018’s "Promises"

Well done Sam/Kim, glad for a new #1 and while I still don’t think it’s that great it has grown on me a bit.
