Major Lazer, Justin Bieber and MO's Cold Water is Number 1 single for a fifth week
The Official Singles Chart is once again drenched in Cold Water this week, as Major Lazer, Justin Bieber and MØ hang on to Number 1 for a fifth consecutive week.
It's been a closely run race all week between Cold Water and DJ Snake's Let Me Love You, which also features Justin Bieber. Cold Water shifted just over 71,500 combined chart sales, meaning DJ Snake couldn't charm his way to the top, finishing 1,469 behind to spend a third straight week at Number 2.

Major Lazer's Cold Water drowns out the competition when it comes to streaming too – it's notched up 5.03 million plays to be the most listened to track of the week.
The Chainsmokers edge up one place to 3 with Closer, featuring Halsey, and Calum Scott's cover of Robyn's Dancing On My Own drops one to 4, while Twenty One Pilots' Heathens hits a new chart high, rising two to 5.
New entries and climbers
It's a new chart peak for Charlie Puth and Selena Gomez's We Don't Talk Anymore, which leaps nine places to break into the Top 20 for the first time, at 14. Anne-Marie's Alarm has also gone Top 20, up five to 19.
Highest brand new entry this week belongs to Ellie Goulding, with Still Falling For You, from the latest Bridget Jones movie, going in at 25, and Craig David & Sigala are also new at 29 with Ain't Giving Up.
Two tracks break into the Top 40 for the very first time this week: a remix of Is This Love, from Bob Marley feat. Lvndscape and Bolier, is up 3 to 39, while Cheat Codes & Dante Klein rocket 37 slots with Let Me Hold You (Turn Me On) up to 40.

Crazy 1rst for 5 weeks is a killer! Regarding the most recent dance video, it's very cool to see dance videos like this for music! There should be more done before the official music video is released. Amazing how they shot the scenes in the wild in Island>> I like this style. Also, I note that Justin Bieber is getting better and better which proves that he's a real artist and singer! I just posted my new cover here:

Just hope Bieber and Drake don't release a duet or they could be number one for ever. Think it's daft how Cold Water can only sell just over 21k but be number one. In the old days you would be lucky to get in the top 10 with that figure. Wish every 1,000 streams counted as one sale instead of every 100.

LOL a duet would be awful. Flat voice VS lady voice

Crikey... The new streaming counts has really messed up the charts. We have now 2 long consecutive number of weeks at the top just by 2 singles. New songs aren't even getting a look in anymore, as old songs linger around the chart. The charts were so much more exciting before the streaming counts came in. Back in the 90s and 00s songs were lucky to spend more than 8 weeks inside the top 40, now we have songs spending over a year inside the top 75. Think the rules need looking at once again, I understand that most people aren't physically buying tracks and albums, however, to count how many times people are listening to songs, we will have songs spending 2 years plus soon!

Maybe Drake wasn't a one-off after all...

Da King Of Chart :)
I.B.
I reckon a few more weeks at the top for JB.

Yep, I'm guessing 2-3 more with Cold Water and he may replace himself with Let Me Love You if that Chainsmokers song doesn't gain ground first. Or he simply will pull a Drake through September...lol
