Hello DaTilt, Great chart. Good to see Louis Tomlinson and Holly Humberstone both in your top 10. Nice debuts for Sombr and Zayn too.

Hi Seltin, Great chart. Good to see Bruno at your #1, a former #1 for me too. Harry Styles up to #3 and A Couple Minutes debuting at #16 also great to see.

Hi Sergej, Great chart as ever, not a fan of Ella Langley myself but good to see her get an extended run at #1 for you. Glad to see Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift and Harry Styles all in your top 10. Great to see your debuts for Sombr, Noah Kahan, Zayn and especially Dermot Kennedy - my #1!

Dermot Kennedy scores his 4th #1 this week with Funeral, as it moves up 1. Also moving up 1 is Jack Savoretti to score his 3rd #2 hit with We Will Always Be The Way We Were. After a fortnight on top, Robbie Williams slips to #3 with All My Life. Embrace climb another 2 to #4 with Road To Nowhere, and Dean Lewis climbs 5 to #5 with I Am Getting Well. Both Myles Smith and Niall Horan get their 3rd top 10 hit and 2nd highest peaking song, as Drive Safe climbs 7 to #8. Rick Astley has the highest climber, as Waiting On You goes up 8 to #10. Victor Ray has a 2nd hit with Disappear, the highest new entry at #19. Zayn enters at #21 with his new song Die For Me. The Fray get another hit on here with A Light That Waits at #29.

Hello Sergej, Good to see Bruno, Harry and Taylor high up for you. Also happy to see Bruce enter, song’s too political for my liking but I’m a big Sringsteen fan anyway.

Hello JSG, Good to see Taylor back on top, still loving Ophelia. Good to see Bruno going up and Harry debuting, Aperture is something of a grower I think.

Hello, Good to see Imposter high up your chart, and Holly Humberstone too. Will need to check out that Agnes song and new Mia Wray.

Robbie gets a 2nd week at the top with All My Life, one of my all time favourites of his now. Dermot Kennedy goes up another 3 places to reach #2 with Funeral. Jack Savoretti climbs 6 to #3 with the title track from his upcoming album We'll Always Be The Way We Were. Charlie Puth slips a place to #4 and Bruno slips 3 to complete this week's top 5. Embrace and the Arctics are both up 6 to #6 and #7 respectively. Dean Lewis has the highest climber, up 8 to #10 with I Am Getting Well. Highest new entry at #15 comes from Myles Smith & Niall Horan who have teamed up for the very catchy Drive Safe. Rick Astley is back with new single Waiting For You, in at #18. Jessie Ware enters at #20 with new release I Could Get Used To This. Lathums get a 10th hit on this chart, as Gull In The Wind debuts at #23. Sombr has a 4th hit here with Homewrecker, at #33, and lastly Louis Tomlinson gets a 3rd solo hit #38 with Imposter.

We have a new #1 this week as Robbie climbs a place to the summit with All My Life, one of the highlights from his Britpop album. Bruno slips to #2 after a fortnight at the top with I Just Might. Charlie Puth is up 6 to #3 with Beat Yourself Up, one of his best I'd say. At #4 is Opalite by Taylor Swift, slipping a place. Dermot Kennedy has the highest climber, up 9 places 14-5 for a 10th top 5 hit in total. Harry Styles climbs to #8 with Aperture, slowly growing on me. Jack Savoretti has the highest new entry with We Will Always Be The Way We Were at #9. Embrace enter at #12 with their new song Road To Nowhere, not to be confused with the Talking Heads hit. Another regular visitor here is Dean Lewis, scoring his 11th top 20 hit with I Am Getting Well at #18. Mel C is in at #21 with What Could Possibly Go Wrong?, an improvement on her last one for sure. Noah Kahan enters at #31 with his brand new song The Great Divide. Roommates is Hilary Duff's first appearance in this chart (her debut pre-dates this chart) at #35. Last of 7 new entries is Robyn's Talk To Me, at #38.

Thanks Sergej, glad you like these track, especially Bruno and Robbie.

Thanks JSG, Loving Bruno’s new one just as good as his previous material. Aperture is definitely a grower for, not the best Harry Styles song but still really good. Love nearly all of Dermot’s songs so far, agree Funeral is very good and likely to climb in the coming weeks. I just got around to listening to Room Mates, sounds very like Taylor Swift. Hilary’s best since her debut for me, and she shares my real surname of Duff!

Thanks for your comment DaTilt, loving the Bruno Mars song just now. Free Love is definitely my favourite from Cast in a while, better than their last few.

Bruno Mars gets an easy 2nd week at #1 with I Just Might, whilst Robbie Williams has the highest climber, up 8 to #2 with the brilliant All My Life from his new Brit Pop album. Taylor slips to #3 with Opalite. Sabrina Carpenter gets her highest chart position yet with Such A Funny Way, up 3 to #4. Florence & The Machine have another top 5 hit as Buckle rises 7 to #5 this week. Charlie Puth gets another top 10 hit with Beat Yourself Up, rising 6 to #9. Harry Styles has the week's highest new entry with Aperture, coming in at #11, something of a grower I think. Dermot Kennedy gets a 12th top 20 hit on here with Funeral, in at #14. Arctic Monkeys are back with War Child charity single Opening Night, in at #20. Last but not least, Mika gets another hit with Excuses For Love at #32. Other significant climbs from Pink Pantheress/Zara #34, Madison Beer #31, Zach Bryan #29, JP Cooper/Gabrielle #24, Alessi Rose #23, Declan J Donovan #18, Kula Shaker #17 and Appleton #13.

Thanks JSG. Opalite and Ophelia are 2 of my favourite overall Taylor songs, highlights from the album for sure. I love Bruno, I Just Might is typically catchy and fun. Church is probably my 2nd favourite of Jade’s solo songs now so should continue to climb in the coming weeks.

Thanks Sergej, glad you like these songs.

We have a change at the top as Taylor Swift claims her 2nd #1 from her current album. Opalite goes up 2 to #1, replacing Cast's Free Love which slips to #2. Bruno Mars makes a triumphant return to land the highest new entry with I Just Might at #3. Sophie slips 2 to #4 and Richard Ashcroft slips a place to #5. Kato climbs into the top 10 with turn The Lights Off, up 5 to #9. Olivia Dean has a 5th hit on this chart with A Couple Minutes, entering at #14 to join previous hit So Easy which is at #31 in its 9th week on. Declan J Donovan gets a 3rd entry here with Love Can Grow at #26, following top 20 hits More Than A Feeling and Life Or Death. Zach Bryan gets a 4th hit with Plastic Cigarette in at #36 this week. Significant climbers include Florence & The Machine's Buckle 23-16, James Marriott's California Roan 24-18, Agnes Wake Up 26-21, Jade up 30-23 with Church and Kula Shaker up 6 to #30 with Lucky Number.

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.

Here is my top 50 of the year 2025, based on a points system awarding 40 points for each week spent at #1, down to 1 point for each week at #40. Taylor Swift tops the 2025 chart with The Fate Of Ophelia, which spent 4 weeks at #1 in October / November, one of her all time best songs I think. In 2nd place is Chappell Roan with The Subway, which also spent 4 weeks at #1 in August / September. This has to be my favourite Chappell song so far now. Benson Boone has 2 songs in the top 5 - Mystical Magical at #3 and Sorry I'm Here For Someone Else at #5. Both tracks spent multiple weeks at #1 and come from his brilliant American Heart album. Lewis Capaldi made his comeback in July with Survive, becoming the only song in 2025 to spend 5 weeks at #1. Lewis has another 2 in the top 40 - Something In The Heavens at #23 and current top 5 The Day That I Die at #29. Tom Grennan also has 3 songs in the top 20 - Shadowboxing at #6, Full Attention at #11 and Somewhere Only We Go at #13. All were #1s and are on his album Everywhere I Went Lead Me To Where I Didn't Want To Go. Ed Sheeran also has 3 tracks in the top 20 which are all from his latest album Play - Azizam at #9, Sapphire at #14 and Camera at #18. Sienna Spiro's Die On This Hill is still in the top 20 this week, and topped the charts in November. The song ends up at #7 for the entire year. Honourable mention also goes to James Marriott whose I Don't Want To Live Like This is the highest placing non-top 3 hit at #31, and Olly Murs whose Save Me peaked at #6 in the weekly charts but is at #39 of the year.

So the week after Chirstmas and Kylie holds on for a 2nd week at #1 with XMAS. Sophie Ellis Bextor rises to #2 with Time, possibly the first #1 of 2026? Lewis Capaldi slips a place to #3, as does Amy MacDonald to #4. Cast go up 5 to #5 with Free Love, their best in a while I think. Olly Murs & Ordinary Boys climb to #6 with their festive offering Christmas Starts Tonight. Sigrid gets another top 10 hit with Hush Baby, Hurry Slowly, up 6 to #9. Better Joy's Steamroller is the week's non-festive highest climber, up 7 to #11 this week. Richard Ashcroft has the highest new entry with Heavy News at #14, one of the highlights on his Lovin' You album. Sam Clegg shoots up 9 to #19 with Angel On The Tree and Cher up 8 to #21 with Christmas Is Here, both festive songs of course. Jack Savoretti has a 2nd hit of 2025 with Only Gonna Cry For You, with Steph Fraser. Another seasonal climber is Christmas All Over Again by Bryan Adams & co at #28. One Republic enter at #29 with Give Me Something, newcomer Dove Ellis debuts at #32 with Love Is.

Hi JSG, Good to see Bandaids continuing to climb for Katy Perry. Will need to get around to listening to Hilary Duff and Diana Vickers songs. Will also need to listen to Jade's new ones, only one I've really liked so far is Angel Of My Dreams, Plastic Box was ok though. Of course Tom Grennan still in the top 10 is great to see too.

T'was the week before Christmas so appropriate for Kylie Minogue to go to #1 with XMAS, meaning The Day That I Die slips to #2 for Lewis Capaldi. Amy MacDonald also slips 1 to #3 with I'm Done. Sophie Ellis Bextor rises 5 to #4 with Time and Robyn leaps up 7 to reach #5 with Dopamine. Inhaler get their first top 10 this week with Hole In The Ground up 6 to #9. Cast get the highest new entry at #10 with their Free Love, return to form I think with this one. Olly Murs & Ordinary Boys climb 6 to #11 with their Christmas Starts Tonight. Sigrid has a 4th top 20 hit from her latest album as Hush Baby, Hurry Slowly debuts at #15. Newcomer Better Joy come in at #19 with their track Steamroller, just saw them supporting Amy MacDonald. Matt Cardle has the highest climber moving 28-20 with Drinking Dreams. Cher's 2nd festive entry Christmas Is Here is here at #29. Last but not least is newcomer Dove Ellis, debuting at #34 with Love Is.

Hello Sergej, Great to see Amy MacDonald as high as #3 for you, as well as Leony climbing into your top 10. Die On This Hill climbing as far as #27 is great to see too, as is your new entry for Lewis.

Hello Seltin, Good to see Taylor at #1 for you and also Katy Perry at #2, think Bandaids is much better than anything from Katy's last album. Robyn's new entry is great to see too, loving Dopamine just now. Also good to see Die On This Hill going up, albeit just 1 place.

Hello JSG, Good to see double Taylor and double Tate in your top 4, the 3 songs in your chart are my favourite 3 from Taylor's album. Also good to see Sugar On My Tongue reach your top 5, I'm not a fan of Tyler The Creator but I do love that track. Loving Changes by Charlie Puth so good to see that enter for you. Also good to see your climb for Katy Perry's Bandaids.

Lewis Capaldi gets a 3rd week at #1 with The Day That I Die, ahead of a 3 place climb for Amy MacDonald, getting another top 3 hit here with I'm Done (Games That You Play). Katy Perry moves up another place with Bandaids to #3. Kings Of Leon's To Space and Sienna Spiro's Die On This Hill slip 2 to #4 and #5 respectively. Olivia Dean has her 2nd top 10 hit with So Easy (To Fall In Love) up to #6, following from #5 hit Man I Need. Bastille and Sophie Ellis Bextor both get another top 10too. Kylie is the week's highest new entry and one of 3 festive new entries with XMAS at #8. Robyn is the highest climber, up 7 to #12 with Dopamine. Olly Murs & Ordinary Boys team up for Christmas Starts Tonight in at #17. Highest of 2 regular new entries comes from Mika, his new one Immortal Love debuts at #26. Blue return to this chart with Beautiful Spiritual at #33. Sam Clegg gets a 2nd hit with festive song Angel On The Tree at #35.
