Posted January 4Jan 4 In the second chart of 2026, Cast claim the number one with their latest song Free Love. That means Sophie slips to #2 after a week on top. Taylor Swift makes a swift climb to #3 with Opalite, just ahead of Heavy News by Richard Ashcroft at #4. Sigrid slips 2 places to complete this week's top 5. Tom Odell, Blue and Calum Scott all climb into the top 10, whilst Kato, Sabrina and One Republic all climb into the top 20. The highest of 6 new entries is at #23 for Florence & The Machine with Buckle, 1 ahead of James Marriott's 3rd hit California Rain. Swedish singer Agnes makes her debut on this chart (Release Me pre-dates these charts) with her new single Wake Up at #26. Gabrielle Aplin enters at #30 with Start Again, from the forthcoming new edition of her first album English Rain. Jade gets a 3rd entry with Church at #31, much better than her last few for me. 90s band Kula Shaker make a return with Lucky Number at #35.TW LW Wks Song1 2 4 Cast - Free Love2 1 6 Sophie Ellis Bextor - Time3 9 2 Taylor Swift - Opalite4 6 3 Richard Ashcroft - Heavy News5 3 4 Sigrid - Hush Baby, Hurry Slowly6 11 2 Tom Odell - When I Close My Eyes7 7 4 Better Joy - Steamroller8 12 2 Blue - Candleight Fades9 4 8 Lewis Capaldi - The Day That I Die10 15 2 Calum Scott & Anny Ogrezeanu - Run With Me11 8 6 Inhaler - Hole In The Ground12 5 7 Amy MacDonald - I'm Done (Games That You Play)13 17 3 Jack Savoretti feat Steph Fraser - Only Gonna Cry For You14 21 2 Kato feat Jon - Turn The Lights Off15 20 2 Tors - All I Know16 10 8 Robyn - Dopamine17 24 2 Sabrina Carpenter - Such A Funny Way18 23 3 One Republic - Give Me Something19 13 9 Katy Perry - Bandaids20 14 9 Kings Of Leon - To Space21 27 3 Dove Ellis - Love Is22 16 8 Olivia Dean - So Easy (To Fall In Love)23 NE 1 Florence & The Machine - Buckle24 NE 1 James Marriott - California Rain25 18 6 Matt Cardle - Drinking Dreams26 NE 1 Agnes - Wake Up27 19 7 Leony - Don't Worry28 34 2 Benny Elder - Candle In The Dark29 22 7 Bastille - Save My Soul30 NE 1 Gabrielle Aplin - Start Again31 NE 1 Jade - Church32 25 12 Sienna Spiro - Die On This Hill33 37 2 James - Hallelujah Anyhow34 26 8 Ellie Goulding - Destiny35 NE 1 Kula Shaker - Lucky Number36 28 5 Mika - Immortal Love37 29 9 Bon Jovi feat Robbie Williams - We Made It Look So Easy38 33 7 Tate McRae - Nobody's Girl39 30 9 Rag n Bone Man - Time To Love40 32 6 The Fray - Songs I'd Rather Not Sing
January 5Jan 5 Helloooo Adele!It's nice to see opalite climb the ranks again though I can't say I'm finding it amazing anymore. I think I would have gathered a different song as single #2.Turn the lights off is great of course and I'd love to see this become a massive top 10 single for them, after all this time.Such a funny way is really good. But better than Tears for me too.Start again is alright, it's very by the numbers for Gabrielle aplin and not quite as strong as her previous material.Church is great of course. On glad to see you finally charting it. What a great lead for the deluxe album.Die on this hill has only really just stuck it's claws in me. It's fantastic.Fab chart 🥳
