Back to back BBC Number Ones!

Somebody probably has posted this a million times, but does anyone have a full list of when the charts weren’t broadcast for whatever reason (aside from the end of the year).

Struggling to think of a charity record as good as Perfect Day. It’s only let down by Heather Small and Tom Jones’ “reap off” at the end. Barbra Streisand with her iconic upside down headphones in the Tell Him video haha

Line up for 22 May - Hairdresser - Skye Newman (29), Say My Name - Morgan Seatree (27), Nokia - Drake (17), Revolving Door - Tate McCrae (16), Shake It to the Max - Moily / Silent Addy (15), Bad Dreams - Teddy Swims (9), Blessings - Calvin Harris / Clementine Douglas (8), Ordinary - Alex Warren (1)

Is there any chance “Ordinary” can continue to dodge three consecutive weeks of negative streaming and break Bryan Adams’ record?

So in the original thread I suggested The Real Thing by Toni Di Bart. I’d also like to throw in Blame it On the Weatherman by B*Witched.

Lineup for 15 May - Birds of a Feather - Billie Eilish (35), Here in Your Arms - Nathan Dawe / Abi Flynn (34), The Days - Chrystal (31), Old Phone - Ed Sheeran (17), Mystical Magical - Benson Boone (16), Nice to Meet You - Myles Smith (13), Undressed - Sombr (6), Ordinary - Alex Warren (1)

Ofc Elvis’ number of top ten singles should be reduced by 20.

The Long and Winding Road!

Toni Di Bart - The Real Thing

Line up for 8 May - Bluest Flame - Selena Gomez / Benny Blanco (49), Hairdresser - Skye Newman (38), Party for You - Charli XCX (34), Damocles - Sleep Token (25), Nokia - Drake (16), What Was That - Lorde (11), Love Me Not - Ravyn Lenae (5), Ordinary - Alex Warren (1)

Lineup for 1 May - Birds of a Feather - Billie Eilish (31), Tell Me - Sonny Fodera / Clementine Douglas (26), Shake It to the Max - Moliy / Silent Addy (25), Headphones On - Addison Rae (24), Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else - Benson Boone (21), Steve’s Lava Chicken - Jack Black (11), Show Me Love - Wiz the MC / Bees & Honey (4), Ordinary - Alex Warren (1)

They must be on Facebook or something at least!

What were the weekly sales for Bingo when it peaked btw? Have had that in my head all day today!

Line up for 17 April - Die with a Smile - Lady Gaga / Bruno Mars (24), End of the World - Miley Cyrus (23), That’s So True - Gracie Abrams (22), Sorry I’m Here for Someone Else - Benson Boone (21), Caramel - Sleep Token (10), Show Me Love - Wizthemc / Bees & Honey (8), Azizam - Ed Sheeran (3), Ordinary - Alex Warren (1)

No it will never happen ever ever again. Hell will freeze over and the four horseman of the apocalypse will march upon us before it happens lol

I believe there is only one other song to sell a million units in one chart week. (Don’t want to spoiler it ofc).

Interesting to note that Tubthumping may very well have climbed back up to #2 if wasn’t for Diana’s death!

Line up for 10 April - Dilemma - Nemz / Central Cee (39), Tell Me - Sonny Fodera / Clementine Douglas (36), Back to Friends - Sombr (35), Mutt - Leon Thomas (22), Love Me Not - Ravyn Lenae (15), Nokia - Drake (10), Twilight Zone - Ariana Grande (5), Ordinary - Alex Warren (1)

Running Up That Hill? (Or is the 2012 remix technically a different song)

Line up for 3 April - Messy - Lola Young (13), Nice to Meet You - Myles Smith (11), Bad Dreams - Teddy Swims (9), Abracadabra - Lady Gaga (8), Sports Car - Tate McRae (6), Beautiful Things - Benson Boone (4), Pink Pony Club - Chappell Roan (2), Ordinary - Alex Warren (1)

If you genuinely can’t cope with listening to Lose Control once every week, there’s probably bigger than problems than the length of the chart show to consider.

Why don’t they start an hour earlier so they can play the entire top 40 in full?
