Also, Purple Disco Machine and Meek join forces to break Stephen Sanchez's record for the highest jump of all time, with a whopping 44 slots.

And our returning #1...  

1 To Love Somebody by Holly Humberstone (Re, Peak 1x2, Weeks 9)

Next week: Album bombs fade, leading to a Halloween season where two #1 songs are likely to permanently exit, with one of them to be replaced by a song whose Chappell Roan remix boosts its hype back into the top 10. 

Meanwhile, some massive hits from earlier this year and previously long-running charting songs begin trying to rack up as much strength as they can to get into the year end list. This means Paramore and Maymay Entrata (the latter of whom is trying to get a Grammy nom in an Asian category) will have to fight each other, Purple Disco Machine, Miranda Lambert and Ella Langley.

Great chart!
Take care.

Heya!

It's nice to see pink clouding doing well. It's a bop though this is the one that has grown on me least.

A nice entry for golly Humberstone. Without a doubt her best song since the walls are way too thin.

To love somebody is great as well.

Fab stuff 🥳

Hi Oliver,

nice re-entry for Holly. Her new song is ace too. She is really deserving it - one of the greatest artists of 2026!

Test My Luck is decent - great #2.

Great chart!
Take care.

most of the non-Holly songs you mentioned are likely to gain, especially snakeskin boots and pink clouding. Too Cute to be Lonely will likely get into the top 5

to love somebody may gracefully exit next week, but too cute to be lonely will likely be a 2027 carryover hit. pink clouding will be even bigger next week.
