Official Charts Report

Going only one way! The Chemical Brothers 2015 hit Go could break the Top 10 for the very first time (7).

Having made its maiden entry inside the Top 40 on Friday, the track is now looking to ascend the proverbial chart mountain once more, currently up 15 places.

This spike in popularity is due to Go being included in the new Netflix action-thriller Apex, starring Taron Egerton and Charlize Theron.

All in all, it would mark an 8th Top 10 success for British duo Ed Simons and Tom Rowlands.

The highest new entry could come courtesy of Charli xcx and Rock Music (20). The British singer-songwriter surprised everyone by announcing the track unexpectedly on Thursday.

Having recently dominated the Singles Chart thanks to his recent biopic, three Michael Jackson hits in Billie Jean (3), Beat It (9), Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough (13) and a Jackson 5 tune I Want You Back (33), are all on course to rise.

A tune which is experiencing a real moment right now is Propsa and Cloonee’s Free Your Mind. Having achieved a fresh peak a couple of days ago, the dance-infused banger is now aiming to pierce the Top 20 (19).

Calvin Harris team-up with Irish artist Jazzy on Satisfy could lead to a debut main chart appearance (30) as two SIENNA SPIRO tracks in Material Lover, used in the recent soundtrack for The Devil Wear’s Prada 2, may rise an impressive 34 places (33), while The Visitor looks to re-enter the Top 40 offerings (36).

11 week rein me in just sad kill the singles chart that been there almost 3 month top

Fingers crossed for Basement. Their new album is really good. Their chart history suggests they won't make it, but I can always hope!

I imagine Billie will be number 1 in the albums with Michael and Westlife battling it out for number 2?

Has Hit Me Hard And Soft had a new reissue or something? MJ did almost 30k last week so I don't see anything getting past that

I *think* the Live album is released to coincide with the live movie concert?

EDIT: Scrap that! That was released last week? (Although her movie is this weekend)

Interesting to see what sales Westlife will have as it's been on pre order for so long.

I’m hoping DSTYGE can hit ACR before Human Nature so the latter can finally enter the top 40

So whose likely to get the number 1 album this friday

I would hope Westlife but there is not much interest in their album I think so probably MJ

I know Westlife are doing promo in the UK this week but do they have any signings or anything? Cant see there being enough interest in their 3rd Greatest Hits to challenge for #1.

Other than the bgt short appearance there is nothing

How many more weeks just Reign Me In need to spend at number one to beat the record, might take Ariana Grande to knock it off the top

Why have Westlife released two different versions of "The Ultimate Collection"?! It feels absurd to give it that title, but then have 2 separate releases.

Anything to get that #1 spot.

Taking lessons from Kylie Minogue calling her christmas album fully wrapped and changing half the track list 🤣
