Bars and Melody. Number 5 debut and out the top 100 the next week.

When you think of Calvin Harris, one word that immediately springs to mind is 'hit-maker'. The Scot has been turning out bangers for the past nine years; ever since his debut single Acceptable in the 80s hit Number 10 in March 2007. Since then, he has achieved seven Number 1 singles, one massive million selling classic and has produced material for Kylie Minogue, Scissor Sisters, Rihanna, Cheryl Cole and Rita Ora. Calv has an impressive 20 Top 10 singles under his belt, and this Friday (September 23), Calvin's new single My Way is expected to become his 21st. Not too shabby, right? Before that nice round figure has a 1 stuck on the end, we thought to look back at his near ten-year chart history and rank his 20 biggest singles. Will all of his Top 10 tunes make it into the list? With streams and sales are combined, let's delve into the Top 5... 5. Blame One of Calvin's most euphoric singles, this John Newman-featured belter is one Calvin often closes out his sets with. Blame was Calvin's third consecutive Number 1 during the Motion album era and was a tough act to follow. The song debuted at the top spot, shifting a combined tally of 70,000 and held in the Top 10 for eight weeks straight. To date, Blame has accumulated combined chart sales of 818,000. 4. Summer Another single from his fourth studio album Motion, Summer was the album's lead single and went straight in at Number 1, riding a wave of momentum following his previous top spot hogger, the non-album track Under Control. Featuring Calvin on vocals, this track was the soundtrack summer 2014 (well, it wasn't going to be winter was it?) and pushed past the 100,000 barrier in week one with a combined total of 106,000. The song is also Calvin's biggest hit with himself on vocals. Too bad I'm Not Alone. Overall, the track has garnered combined sales of 874,000. 3. This Is What You Came For The first of two Number 2 hits in Calvin's all-time Top 5, this bad boy was kept off Number 1 by the almighty One Dance by Drake. Not sure if you've ever heard of that one - people tend to forget it was ever Number 1. Calvin's second hook-up with Rihanna, This Is What You Came For has been a monster hit in 2016. It became Calvin's 20th Top 10 single and RiRi's 28th(!) and achieved over 100,000 combined sales for two weeks running. No doubt Calvin is a little miffed he missed out on an eighth Number 1, but he will certainly be happy with its lifetime total: 1,065,000. 2. How Deep Is Your Love Another song that had to settle for second place, it is back at the runner-up slot again on this list. Calvin tag teamed with Disciples in 2015 for How Deep Is Your Love, which has so far racked up a combined chart sales figure of 1,119,000. Although not Calvin's biggest hit when streaming and sales are combined, it is the most streamed smash in his repertoire and has been played over 70 million times in the UK. The songs that kept this off Number 1? One Direction's Drag Me Down and Charlie Puth and Meghan Trainor's Marvin Gaye. 1. We Found Love Rihanna is back again, this time for the million-selling We Found Love. To date, the song has sold 1,404,000 units, a figure that rises to a combined total of 1,583,000 when streaming data is included. Calvin's only million seller, it has shifted 777,000 more copies than the DJ's second biggest seller Dance Wiv Me, his collaboration with Dizzee Rascal and Chrome. We Found Love topped the Official Singles Chart on two separate occasions, staying on top for six non-consecutive weeks. A song so nice, it was Number 1 twice! The rest of the Top 20 Calvin's second collaboration with Ellie Goulding Outside comes in at Number 6, some 137,000 combined chart sales behind Blame. His first outing with Ellie I Need Your Love also makes the Top 10, as does Sweet Nothing, his duet with Florence Welch. The only one of Calvin's Top 10 singles not to make the cut in the Top 20? It is The Girls. Despite peaking at Number 3 in 2007, the song is at Number 21 overall, just behind the only non-Top 10 on the list, Pray To God which features HAIM and reached Number 35. Here's Calvin Harris' Official Top 20 biggest songs in the UK: 1 WE FOUND LOVE RIHANNA FT CALVIN HARRIS 1,583,000 (1,404,000 pure sales) 2 HOW DEEP IS YOUR LOVE CALVIN HARRIS & DISCIPLES 1,119,000 3 THIS IS WHAT YOU CAME FOR CALVIN HARRIS FT RIHANNA 1,065,000 4 SUMMER CALVIN HARRIS 874,000 5 BLAME CALVIN HARRIS FT JOHN NEWMAN 818,000 6 OUTSIDE CALVIN HARRIS/ELLIE GOULDING 681,000 7 DANCE WIV ME DIZZEE RASCAL/CALVIN HARRIS/CHROME (627,000 pure sales) 8 FEEL SO CLOSE CALVIN HARRIS 9 SWEET NOTHING CALVIN HARRIS/FLORENCE WELCH 10 I NEED YOUR LOVE CALVIN HARRIS/ELLIE GOULDING 11 I'M NOT ALONE CALVIN HARRIS 12 BOUNCE CALVIN HARRIS FT KELIS 13 DRINKING FROM THE BOTTLE CALVIN HARRIS FT TINIE TEMPAH 14 UNDER CONTROL CALVIN HARRIS/ALESSO/HURTS 15 WE'LL BE COMING BACK CALVIN HARRIS FT EXAMPLE 16 LET'S GO CALVIN HARRIS FT NE-YO 17 THINKING ABOUT YOU CALVIN HARRIS FT AYAH MARAR 18 READY FOR THE WEEKEND CALVIN HARRIS 19 ACCEPTABLE IN THE 80S CALVIN HARRIS 20 PRAY TO GOD CALVIN HARRIS FT HAIM ©2016 Official Charts Company.

Looks like Cry Me a River has sold more copies in the 2010s than it did in the 2000s! It's certainly become a modern-day favourite and is even catching up with 4 Minutes!

Ever since her first hit in 2009, there's never been a dull moment with Lady Gaga around – every song and every image change is something of an event. Now, as Lady Gaga releases her long-awaited single Perfect Illusion, we look back at the smashes that came before it and reveal her top selling singles. Let's kick off with the Top 5 before we reveal the full 20: 5: Born This Way Don’t call it a comeback, but it kinda was. As Gaga prepared to release her second full album of new material in 2011, the world waited with bated breath. Could she live up to the hype of her early hits? After two massive tours – The Fame Ball and The Monster Ball – would Gaga still have the energy to pull off another dazzling album campaign? In short: yes. The track sold 144,000 copies in its first two weeks on sale, and reached Number 3. Its total sales now stand at 712,600. 4: Telephone If you’re going to do a collaboration, this is probably the best way to do it. In 2010, Gaga teamed up with Queen B for a raucous girls’ night out in a ‘clerb’, sipping some ‘berb’ and definitely not answering their phones, thank you very much. The epic video was a sequel to Paparazzi, with Gaga being banged up for putting something nasty in her boyfriend’s tea. Luckily, Beyoncé was on hand to spring her out of jail, and the two went on a further rampage, causing no end of headaches for the environmental health department of their local council. It got to Number 1, selling 720,500 copies to date, and it's proven a hard act to follow: neither Gaga or Beyoncé have had a Number 1 single since. 3: Just Dance Here’s where it all began. Who knew as this debut single raced to Number 1 we were witnessing the start of something really big? Before the meat dress, arriving at awards ceremonies in an egg, and starring in horror shows, there was Just Dance – a slice of perfect pop and the ideal way to introduce the world to a true pop phenomenon, becoming the third biggest seller of 2009. Find out which two songs beat it to the top here. It's tantalisingly close to being a member of the million-sellers' club, with 957,400 sales under its (no doubt very high fashion) belt – will we see it tip over the big one soon? If it does, it'll be Gaga's third, because look who's up next… 2: Bad Romance Lady Gaga’s first release from The Fame Monster was something of a slow-burner, but once it got going, it certainly made up for lost time. Bad Romance took seven weeks to reach the top of the Official Singles Chart, only to be knocked off by Rage Against The Machine. It returned two weeks later, not quite ready to give up on all the glory just yet. From the cover art to the video and the defiant chant of 'Gaga ooh la la', everything about Bad Romance made a good case for iconic status. Bad Romance was Gaga's third Number 1 of 2009 and her first of 2010 – its sales tally stands at 1.034 million, passing the seven-figure milestone in September 2013. 1: Poker Face Ma-ma-ma-maaaaah. There can only be one winner, and it’s Gaga’s second single and Number 1 Poker Face that takes the crown as her best-selling song on the Official Singles Chart. It’s classic Gaga territory: hairpieces as far as the eye can see and the flamboyant popstar outwitting the guys in a hedonistic party setting. Chants, a catchy chorus, a talky middle-eight – it’s Gaga 101 and worthy of its million-selling status. Poker Face was the best-selling single of 2009, and passed the million sales mark in September 2010. It's currently lording it at the top of Lady Gaga's countdown with 1.17 million sales. Other notable entries The Edge of Glory just misses out on a Top 5 placing – it's one of Gaga’s more upbeat numbers but was actually written in the aftermath of the death of the singer’s grandfather. It's sold 606,000 copies. ARTPOP's lead single Applause makes the Top 10 with just under 300,000 sales, while its follow-up Do What U Want, feat. R Kelly, is close behind on 277,000 copies. Another Beyoncé collab, Video Phone, lands at 15, while Gaga's guest spot on Wale's Chillin' is a place behind. Here's Lady Gaga's Official Top 20 biggest selling songs in the UK: TITLE PEAK YEAR 1 POKER FACE 1 2009 1,170,000 2 BAD ROMANCE 1 2009 1,034,000 3 JUST DANCE 1 2009 957,400 4 TELEPHONE (FEAT BEYONCÉ) 1 2010 720,500 5 BORN THIS WAY 3 2011 712,600 6 THE EDGE OF GLORY 6 2011 606,000 7 PAPARAZZI 4 2009 8 ALEJANDRO 7 2010 9 JUDAS 8 2011 10 APPLAUSE 5 2013 300,000 11 DO WHAT U WANT (WITH R KELLY) 9 2013 277,000 12 LOVEGAME 19 2009 13 MARRY THE NIGHT 16 2011 14 YOU AND I 23 2011 15 VIDEO PHONE (WITH BEYONCÉ) 58 2009 16 CHILLIN (WITH WALE) 12 2009 17 SPEECHLESS 88 2009 18 BEAUTIFUL DIRTY RICH 83 2009 19 HAIR 13 2011 20 STARSTRUCK N/A 2009

Remembering Aaliyah on the 15th anniversary of her death We look back at the career of one of R&B's brightest stars, who passed away in 2001. On 25 August 2001, singer Aaliyah was killed in a plane crash, cutting short the life and career of one of the brightest and most promising talents in pop and R&B. The music world was, understandably, in shock – Aaliyah was just 22 and, while she had been having hits since her early teens, was beginning to enter the most successful and innovative phase of her career. To mark 15 years since the pop world lost a superstar, we look back at some of the milestones in Aaliyah's short but prolific career. Back and Forth and debut album Aaliyah's debut single Back and Forth, a laidback, new jack swing classic, became one of her signature songs and was her first hit off her launch album Age Ain't Nothing But A Number – a reference to the fact that the album had been recorded when Aaliyah was 14. If Aaliyah sounded wise beyond her years, it's because she'd been a signed artist since the age of 12, and counted R Kelly as a mentor. She was primed for success. Age Ain't Nothing But A Number spawned five Top 40 singles: the most successful being Back and Forth (16) and (At Your Best) You Are Love (27). Meeting Timbaland and Missy Elliott There was a change of pace for Aaliyah's second album – she left behind R Kelly and her original label and signed a new deal. Along with working with Jermaine Dupri and Rodney Jerkins, she also established a working relationship, and close friendship, with Timbaland and Missy Elliott that would endure for the rest of her career. Timbaland and Missy were nowhere near as well-known as they are now, and If Your Girl Only Knew, the lead single from Aaliyah's second album One in a Million, was one of the very earliest songs that showed off Timbaland's now much-imitated production style. The original is great, but this remix by Timbaland – which appeared on the single release in 1996 – samples Bristol trip-hop group Portishead. It's quite a mashup and was groundbreaking for the time. Five Top 40 hits came from One in a Million, with the most successful, a 1998 rerelease of If Your Girl Only Knew, giving Aaliyah her second Top 20. She'd then land a third Top 20, and her UK chart personal best, with Are You That Somebody, from the Eddie Murphy comedy Dr Doolittle, which reached Number 11 and scored her a first Grammy nomination. Bigger success was just around the corner. The new millennium, baby In 2000, anything felt possible in pop, and the dawn of the new millennium inspired artists and producers to explore more futuristic sounds. Aaliyah, with Timbland, cleverly tapped into this vibe with Try Again, taken from the soundtrack of Romeo Must Die, which gave Aaliyah her first movie acting role. Try Again's stark beats, in contrast with Aaliyah's sweet but attitude-packed vocal – not to mention Timbaland himself giving it some serious adlibs – finally gave Aaliyah her first ever UK Top 10, reaching Number 5. It's also her biggest selling single in the UK, shifting over 205,000 copies. Third and final studio album Aaliyah seemed unstoppable, and a year after Try Again, she kicked off the campaign for her self-titled third album with the dark and moody We Need A Resolution, which made the Top 20. It was, sadly, to be her last UK hit in her lifetime. Just a month after the track made its chart debut, Aaliyah was killed in a plane crash in the Bahamas, returning back to the US after shooting a video for future single Rock the Boat. Making chart history It would be another five months before it was deemed appropriate to honour Aaliyah's legacy and carry on the campaign, and with that first release, More Than A Woman, Aaliyah made chart history twice. Aaliyah replaced George Harrison's My Sweet Lord at the top of the Official Singles Chart, and as the former Beatle had also passed away, it was the first time in chart history one posthumous Number 1 had replaced another. Not only that, but More Than A Woman was the first ever posthumous Number 1 by a female artist in the UK. The music goes on Rock The Boat was the last hit from Aaliyah's third album, reaching Number 12. A fourth album, I Care 4 U, consisting of previously unreleased material, was released in 2003 and spawned one Top 40 hit, Don't Know What To Tell Ya. Aaliyah's voice has also been used in tracks by Drake and Chris Brown, and artists who've cited Aaliyah as a major influence include Rihanna, Alicia Keys and Drake. Here's Aaliyah's Official Top 10 biggest selling songs in the UK: TITLE PEAK YEAR 1 TRY AGAIN 5 2000 2 MORE THAN A WOMAN 1 2002 3 ARE YOU THAT SOMEBODY 11 1998 4 ROCK THE BOAT 12 2002 5 BACK AND FORTH 16 1994 6 DON'T THINK THEY KNOW (WITH CHRIS BROWN) 94 2013 7 IF YOUR GIRL ONLY KNEW/ONE IN A MILLION 15 1998 8 WE NEED A RESOLUTION 20 2001 9 JOURNEY TO THE PAST 22 1998 10 IF YOUR GIRL ONLY KNEW (ORIGINAL) 21 1996 ©2016 Official Charts Company .

The song at Number 7 counts sales of the physical copy only; downloads for each song have been counted as part of each individual songs' tally, putting If Your Girl Only Knew at 10.

But those are appalling sales for Louisa!

The winner takes it all? The biggest selling X Factor winner's singles revealed They won the show, but who scores the ultimate prize as the biggest-selling winner’s single of them all? By Justin Myers The X Factor celebrates 13 series of Saturday night domination and unmissability in 2016, and as we start out on the journey to find the new champion, we look back at the 12 who came before. As diverse artists as they all are, they have at least two things in common – first of all, they won the show and released a winner’s single. And secondly, they all released at least one album (apart from, as of time of writing, Louisa Johnson). So when we count out the numbers, who comes out on top? It’s the ultimate display of public approval, the actual purchase of their music. When the studio lights have gone down and they’re on their own, did their onscreen popularity guarantee them hefty sales? Winner's singles It’s a close-run thing when it comes to singles, with the Top 2 artists benefitting from the digital age. There have been four million-selling winner’s singles and it’s pretty close at the top. 3: Shayne Ward – That’s My Goal The second winner of The X Factor, all the way back in 2005, super-talented Shayne Ward was the first winner to score a million-seller. Shayne is also the only champion so far to release a totally original song – everyone else has launched their career with a cover version. Despite not having the advantage of convenient downloads when he won, Shayne still shifted an impressive 740,000 copies in his first week on sale. That’s My Goal has sold a total of 1.11 million copies in the UK. Currently taking a break from music, you can find Shayne running the knicker factory in Coronation Street. 2: James Arthur – Impossible Finishing a very close second is 2012’s winner James Arthur, who scored the fastest-selling single of the year with this Shontelle cover. Impossible has sold 1.294 million copies in the UK. 1: Alexandra Burke – Hallelujah The champion is Series 5’s victor Alexandra Burke, who was the first X Factor winner to have her single immediately available for download. Alex still managed to sell over 570,000 physical copies of her cover of Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah, and altogether the song cleared a million copies in just four weeks – over 576,000 in its first sales week alone. It’s sold a total of 1.297 million copies in the UK, giving Alexandra another win to add to her haul. And the rest… There’s one more million seller courtesy of 2010’s winner Matt Cardle, whose Biffy Clyro cover When We Collide has sold 1.01 million copies. Series 3 winner Leona Lewis has a million in her sights – she’s currently on 916,000 with A Moment Like This. Further down the tally, 2014's winner Ben Haenow notched up a healthy 508,000 sales of Something I Need, while the very first winner of the show Steve Brookstein scores a sales tally of 204,000 for his winning single Against All Odds, originally a hit for Phil Collins and a Number 1 in 1999 for Westlife and Mariah Carey. In last place on the list is 2015's winner Louisa Johnson. Her Bob Dylan cover Forever Young is the only winner's single not to reach Number 1 (it peaked at 9) and has sold 79,000 units in total. Here’s the full Top 12 ranking of all The X Factor’s winning singles so far… TRACK ARTIST SERIES 1 HALLELUJAH ALEXANDRA BURKE 2008 1,297,000 2 IMPOSSIBLE JAMES ARTHUR 2012 1,294,000 3 THAT'S MY GOAL SHAYNE WARD 2005 1,110,000 4 WHEN WE COLLIDE MATT CARDLE 2010 1,010,000 5 A MOMENT LIKE THIS LEONA LEWIS 2006 916,000 6 THE CLIMB JOE MCELDERRY 2009 7 WHEN YOU BELIEVE LEON JACKSON 2007 8 SOMETHING I NEED BEN HAENOW 2014 508,000 9 CANNONBALL LITTLE MIX 2011 10 SKYSCRAPER SAM BAILEY 2013 11 AGAINST ALL ODDS STEVE BROOKSTEIN 2004 204,000 12 FOREVER YOUNG LOUISA JOHNSON 2015 79,000 © 2016 The Official Charts Company. All rights reserved. Debut albums So once the winning single is out, talk turns to debut albums, but who had the selling power for their very first long-player? Let’s just say this is pretty much a one-horse race. 1: Leona Lewis – Spirit Way out in front of all her fellow winners is 2004’s victor Leona Lewis, whose debut album Spirit has sold an incredible 3.13 million copies, making it one of the bestselling albums of all time in the UK. Leona is behind only Adele and Amy Winehouse when it comes to bestselling albums by British female acts. Spirit’s success may well have been helped along, of course, by Leona’s launch single Bleeding Love, which is a million seller and was Number 1 for an astonishing seven weeks. 2: Alexandra Burke – Overcome Another Top 2 result for our singles’ winner, Alexandra’s debut album Overcome has shifted almost 820,000 copies since its release in 2009. The album contains three Number 1 singles, Hallelujah, Bad Boys and Start Without You. 3: Shayne Ward – Shayne Ward Good news for Shayne Ward too: he scores Number 3 position in our albums countdown too, with his debut shifting 539,000 copies. And the rest… The only group to win The X Factor, Little Mix, score the fourth bestselling debut. Even though it peaked at Number 3, DNA comes in with a sales tally of 388,000 so far. 2009 winner Joe McElderry comes in 9th place, with just 33 or so copies edging him ahead of Steve Brookstein. Ben Haenow's self-titled collection finishes in last place, with 70,000 copies shifted in its lifetime. Here's the full rundown… ALBUM ARTIST SERIES 1 SPIRIT LEONA LEWIS 2006 3,130,000 2 OVERCOME ALEXANDRA BURKE 2008 820,000 3 SHAYNE WARD SHAYNE WARD 2005 539,000 4 DNA LITTLE MIX 2011 388,000 5 LETTERS MATT CARDLE 2010 6 JAMES ARTHUR JAMES ARTHUR 2012 7 THE POWER OF LOVE SAM BAILEY 2013 8 RIGHT NOW LEON JACKSON 2007 9 WIDE AWAKE JOE MCELDERRY 2009 (~33 copies ahead of Steve Brookstein) 10 HEART & SOUL STEVE BROOKSTEIN 2004 11 BEN HAENOW BEN HAENOW 2014 70,000

If you're going to pull off a comeback, you need to come up with the goods. What better way to show the world you are back with a bang than to score your second consecutive Number 1 of the year? Exactly. Step forward, Sugababes 2.0. Following their triumphant comeback with electroclashing, retro mashup Freak Like Me, Mutya, Keisha and Heidi returned with another genre-defying track that was part '50s ballad, part '60s girlgroup anthem and, mainly, a pop riot. Written with and produced by Xenomania, who would go on to find great success with Girls Aloud, Round Round didn't make much sense lyrically but it cemented the ladies' return and, fittingly, went straight in at Number 1. There may have been rumours of tension in the band, but Round Round presented the trio as carefree and out for a good time. It was a recipe for success: Round Round was the second of six Number 1s for the band, in various guises, and has sold over 220,000 copies. Its parent album Angels With Dirty Faces is the band's bestselling album, with Take a look at this week's Top 10 from 2002 – click on the image to see the full Top 100 – before we delve a little further. http://www.officialcharts.com/media/651169/top-10-18-august-2002.png It was a debut solo hit for So Solid Crew's Romeo at Number 3. So Solid had burst onto the scene with their debut smash 21 Seconds just a year earlier. One more solo hit would come for Romeo, a baffling team-up with Christina Milian about gravy. Kind of. Daniel Bedingfield (4) was following up his debut smash Gotta Get Thru This from earlier in the year. It would go no further, but his next single would really do the business – he'd be back at Number 1 with heartfelt, and a little bit miserable tbh, ballad If You're Not The One. Another band dealing with a lineup change were Hear'Say (6), who had recently shed original member Kym Marsh in favour of Johnny Shentall, who happened to be the boyfriend of Steps' Lisa Scott-Lee. Pop really was a small world. Sadly, pop was also very fickle and thus few people cared by this point, and Lovin' Is Easy was to be their last hit together. In 2002, wearing white clothes and fake tan at the same time was basically the "climbing Mount Everest" of pop endurance and bravery Speaking of Steps, two members who decided their ideal lineup was one where everyone else in the band evaporated into thin air, H & Claire, at 8. Since waving bye bye to Lisa, Faye and Lee, H and Claire had scored a Top 3 hit with DJ. There'd be another Top 10 after this, before they called it a day. Ain't it too, too bad. Oh, and interestingly, Darius (2) and Gareth Gates (9) had been contestants together on Pop Idol earlier that year, finishing third and runner-up respectively. The winner, of course, was Will Young. But as much of a treat as the rest of the Top 10 was, today belongs to Round Round. Here's the �� video which sees the girls valiantly performing in the middle of a hurricane with quite painful-looking hairstyles. That's 2002 for you: FHh86ySgKrA

One person unquestionably deserving of the title 'music icon' is Dolly Parton. In her 40-year career she’s become one of music’s greatest songwriters (she’s composed over 3,000 songs apparently), conquered Hollywood, opened her own theme park and restaurants and heads up a movie production company. Phew! But for the world’s most decorated country music artist – including eight Grammys and an induction into the country music hall of fame – her track record on the Official Chart doesn’t read like the stuff of legends - she has just two Top 40 hits and three Top 10 albums to her name. The fact is, the UK has a history of struggling to embrace country music - and it’s because of artists like Dolly that it’s a lot more accepted today. As Dolly once said herself: “The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.” To celebrate the release of her 43rd(!) studio album Pure and Simple this week, we’re looking back at Dolly’s biggest songs of the digital era, revealing her Top 10 most downloaded tracks in the UK. Let’s take a closer look at the Top 3… 3. Jolene Released in 1973, Jolene didn’t chart in the UK until June 1976, when it became the first of her two Top 10 hits, peaking at Number 7. Telling the story of a bank assistant who was taking too much interest in her husband, she once insisted that “Jolene is really an innocent song all around, but it sounds like a dreadful one”. It’s since been covered by more than 30 singers, but let’s be real, Dolly’s original version is untouchable. Since downloads were introduced to the Official Chart in 2005, it’s amassed 255,300 downloads – and 6.68 million streams. 2. Islands In The Stream (with Kenny Rogers) Surprise, surprise – Dolly’s only other UK Top 40 hit features prominently in her biggest downloads. Released in 1983, the song was written by the Bee Gees for Marvin Gaye. Kenny recently gave Dolly a lot of credit for the song’s success, explaining: "I sang it in rehearsals for four days and then said to [bee Gees'] Barry Gibb, 'I don't even like it any more'. He said he had just run into Dolly Parton and would ask her to sing with me. I love working with Dolly and I give her full credit because that song was one of my career-making ones. It's just a happy song and I still do it live, singing both parts and trying to sound like Dolly.” Don’t we all, Kenny… To date, Islands In The Stream has racked up 287,200 downloads and 4.83 million streams in the UK. 1. 9 To 5 9 to 5 was written for the film of the same name in which she made her big screen debut alongside Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin. The song won two Grammys in 1982 – for Country Song of the Year and Female Country Vocal of the Year – but unbelievably, has never charted in the Top 40 on the Official Singles Chart, so far peaking at Number 47. It’s enduring popularity over the years on TV, film and when your down the pub with colleagues on a Friday afternoon makes it Dolly's biggest download, totaling 340,800, while it’s also been streamed 8.46 million times. Check out the rest of Dolly Parton's official Top 10 biggest downloads below. A special mention must go to I Will Always Love You at Number 4. Her original version of the song has never charted in the UK, while Whitney Houston's 1992 cover logged 10 weeks at the top and has sold 1.63 million to date. Yeesh...

I'm surprised at Ray of Light not even appearing in the top 20!

Not sure who Marish Carey is (lol), Whitney probably had one after she died and Rihanna had one in January

I feel for the OneRepublic boys. Great song, but in a streaming-dominant era they'll never again reach the heights of Apologise, Counting Stars or Love Runs Out

So almost 50,000 streaming sales since last year? Inpressive, even for someone like MJ

Until last year I believed that there was no point in anyone releasing an album any more unless you were REALLY popular (since Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith and George Ezra dominated the albums chart for bloody forever in 2014 and the start of 2015), but there was a new number 1 single almost every single week. Now, my opinion has completely flipped: since early last year there has a new number 1 album almost every week, but there's only been seven number 1 singles, so it seems that releasing a single is totally pointless.

It's not his family. It's Ed Townsend's.

This lawsuit has nothing to do with Marvin Gaye's family. It's the family of Ed Townsend, who co-wrote the song.

This could be huge for dance acts in the UK, but conversely, it's just another prime example of big corporations getting rid of the competition (no matter how big or small) by just buying them up.
