Anti-Hero looks set to secure Taylor Swift a fifth consecutive week at Number 1

Look what you made her do.

Taylor Swift looks nice and comfy at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart - and doesn’t seem to be going anywhere any time soon. Anti-Hero is leading the charge for a fifth consecutive week at the top.

Anti-Hero would be just one of four Number 1 singles in 2022 to rule the roost for more than 4 weeks, following We Don’t Talk About Bruno by the cast of Encanto, As It Was by Harry Styles and Afraid To Feel by LF SYSTEM.

Can Meghan Trainor’s career resuscitating hit Made You Look mount a challenge to Tay in the next few weeks, though? Currently set to jump to a new peak of Number 3 on Friday, she would have to leapfrog Sam Smith & Kim Petras’ Unholy first though (2).

This week’s big new entry looks to be the first UK Top 10 for North London rapper Clavish, whose joined forces with D-Block Europe on Rocket Science (9).

Following the release of his second album Sonder, Dermot Kennedy’s new single Kiss Me aims to jump to a new peak of Number 12.

Stormzy’s tender ballad Firebabe is also set to rise nine slots to Number 17.

After breaking a UK chart record last week, Mariah Carey and All I Want For Christmas Is You slowly start their festive season dominance, now looking to rise to Number 20…and the sky is the limit from there.

Think this is the only real chance this week that Tom Odell will break the top 10 again, not sure Clavish will hold, kiss me may falter as the week progresses due to album boost but could also gain momentum. Needs to get up there beating Rihanna for a chance, guess will see how it's chances fair tomorrow in the update where streams start to show more

glad kiss me is climbing, such a shame about sonder; dermot is one of my favourite ever artists but sonder is such a dissapointment. hopefully it grows on me but it has NOTHING on without fear for me

as much as i’d love to see that happen, the midnights hype is still lasting, so i fear christmas tree farm will get 3 song ruled

i reckon firebabe might rise even further when stormzy’s new album drops. i do like this direction, but i hope there’s also some bangers on there like mr skeng, bronze or big for your boots

Yes please! 😍

I’m already pushing another track from the album in my charts after ‘Sometimes You Know’s level of success. :)

Clavish is criminally underrated, glad he's finally getting success! His debut mixtape is coming in Jan next year so we might get some more tracks from him in the chart
