Major Lazer, MØ and Justin Bieber are Number 1 for a third consecutive week with Cold Water, fending off... Justin Bieber.

Justin's new collaboration with DJ Snake Let Me Love You is a new entry at Number 2, boasting strong combined chart sales of 70,000. Despite LMLY being the most purchased single of the week with 40,000 sold, JB's featured slot on Major Lazer's track is still Number 1 with 93,000 combined chart sales, and was the most streamed song over the past seven days. 

The rest of this week's Top 5 are made up of music that all slips one place since last week. Calum Scott's Dancing On My Own falls from 2 to 3, Jonas Blue and JP Cooper's Perfect Strangers drops from 3 to 4, and The Chainsmokers' Don't Let Me Down featuring Daya slips one spot to 5.

It's amazing. Since Madonna did it 1985, JB is the only artist to claim the top two spots in the UK. But guess what? This is the SEVENTH time he's done it in a years time. WOW!!!!

JB has had a lot of great feats here in the UK this year... here are some more:
1) First ever artist to occupy the Top 3 spots at the same time.
2) First living artist since The Beatles to replace himself at #1.
3) 'Sorry' was the first ever song to reach 100 mill. UK streams.
4) This time last year, JB didn't have any #1s, but now he has 4!
5) Today, JB ties Drake for the most weeks at #1 this decade (16 each) :)

Absolutely amazing. I was amazed how he was able to juggle three singles worldwide at the same time. I thought it was part awesome songs and part good luck. But now it's obvious that he can have multiple singles at the same time. He is doing things big like MJ, and doing things like JB has only done! haha

He just might replace himself again. I hope Cold Water goes no. 1 in the USA. Already a world chart no. 1.

It dropped from 2 to 5 (I think) and it seems that the spotlight is somehow on Sia and Sean Paul. 'Cheap Thrills' has been out for a while and I thought that Sia fans would have swiftly moved on from there. Guess I was wrong.
