Harry Styles marks a mammoth nine weeks at Number 1 with As It Was

Today, Harry Styles marks a mammoth nine weeks at Number 1 in the UK with As It Was. It becomes the longest-running UK Number 1 since Ed Sheeran’s 11-week long reign at Number 1 with Bad Habits last year. 

In its ninth consecutive week at Number 1, As It Was racks up over 65,000 chart sales and is still the most-streamed song in the country, with over 7.4 million streams to its name. See Harry’s Official Charts history in full here. 

Cat Burns could offer up a challenge to Harry, however, as her breakout hit Go ascends to a new peak (2) and not far behind is Lizzo, whose About Damn Time rises two spots to a new high (3), becoming Lizzo’s highest-peaking single in the UK. 

Tion Wayne & La Roux continue to hit new heights with IFTK (7), while Kate Bush’s Running Up That Hill returns to the UK Top 10 for the first time since 2012 (8 – more on this story below) and Ed Sheeran’s 2step enters the upper echelons of the chart for the first time (9).

Nathan Dawe and Ella Henderson crack the Top 20 for the first time with 21 Reasons (18), The K**** debut with Prince Andrew Is A Sweaty ***** (20) and Benzz’s viral hit Je M’appelle rises two (22).
