Calvin Harris & Ellie Goulding set sights for miraculous return to Number 1
After being dethroned by Lewis Capaldi’s Wish You The Best last week, Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding are a plotting a return to Number 1 with Miracle on Friday.
This would be third non-consecutive week at Number 1 for the trance banger, which helped Ellie become one of the British female solo artists with the most Number 1 singles in UK chart history.
Their closest competition comes, once again, in the form of Chicago-born singer-songwriter David Kushner and his viral hit Daylight, which could rise one to a new peak this week (2).

After weeks of upward momentum, Switch Disco and Ella Henderson’s React charges up for a potential break into the Top 10 (8).
Social media star HStikkytokky and General G are in front to grab this week’s highest new entry with Twust (11).
Following not far behind are The Weeknd and Future with Double Fantasy, the first song lifted from The Weeknd’s upcoming HBO drama The Idol (12), and Nines’ possible return to the chart with Tony Soprano 2 (13).

C
Conor
hopefully itll go top 40 due to the coi remix this week, it was at #48 last week so the remix will hopefully boost it
rayever
it will be top 40 for sure! The remix is at #30 on Apple Music rn too 👀
R
River
Rip Kill Bill, it did so well
Kess
TWUST

I think 'Calm Down' will ne 2023's 'Peru'. Funny how that happens to afrobeats artists though..
H
HazDaSprinter
Nines back in the chart with a banger! Will be interesting to see where that debuts.
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
absolutely! uk rap scene has been dead as of recent but him, little simz, dave, stormzy, kojey radical and loyle carner are bringing something good to the table
Piran
Love that 'React' is set for the Top 10! 😍
H
HazDaSprinter
As I would like to see 'Miracle' at number 1, I don't actually see it going to Friday. HSTikkyTokky, General G and David Kushner are going for them.
rayever
I doubt Twust will hold on tbf, it’s only at 68 on apple music
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
well thank god that the pikeys won’t be streaming this for long
H
HazDaSprinter
Was #1 on iTunes last time I checked
Piran
Nah, not HStickyTokky debuting above The Weeknd! 😐
H
HazDaSprinter
It's an alright song tbf
Piran
Ehh, I'm mixed on it, but I think 'Double Fantasy' is decent! 😅
H
HazDaSprinter
Plus also it was number 1 on iTunes so I see it in the Top ten next week, possible top five. Mayber number 1?
Piran
Hmm, it could climb into the Top 10, but definitely won't be #1. 🤔
H
HazDaSprinter
Yh, with David Kushner and Calvin Harris I don't think it will, at least for this week.
GS
no it will fall out of the top 20 surely
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
yeah no the song’s absolute pish. just another song for the chavs to listen to in their caravan sites from their £5 speaker while they drink their aldi beer. it’s people like them that give this, bru-c and bbcc hits.
ah well, double fantasy is amazing and of course nines is always welcome into the charts, thats some real uk rap there and i hope it can hold on
Piran
Yeah, I knew you’d despise ‘Twust’! 😭
Not heard ‘Tony Soprano 2’ yet, but will definitely let you know what I think of it when I do. :)
Piran
Glad to see 'Miracle' heading back to the top spot again! 😊
