Olivia Rodrigo is the Queen of the Official Charts for a second week as her album Sour and single Good 4 U extend their reign at Number 1.

Sour easily claims a second week at Number 1 on the Official Albums Chart, finishing 17,000 chart sales ahead of her closest competitor. The US star’s debut record enjoys another bumper week of streams, making up 75% of her total this week.

SOUR is now the longest-running Number 1 album of 2021 so far, having ended a 22-week spell of one-week chart-toppers this year. 

On the Official Singles Chart, Good 4 U scores a second week at the summit after racking up 108,000 chart sales, including 12.6 million streams.

Olivia has two more entries in this week’s Top 10: Deja Vu sits at Number 5, while former chart-topper Drivers License is at Number 6.

Finally! After 22 one week wonders (the poorest ever in history) Olivia breaks the streak..I am still standing by Adele to rise head and shoulders above everyone else in sales when all is said and done. You just don't know with her as she promotes very differently. Will Coldplays ' unbroken no.1 streak continue? I say yes.

P*ss off, drivers license and Blinding Lights.

...Here I go again getting annoyed and disappointed by songs not peaking higher because of overstreamed old songs like those two I mentioned.

i am guessing LIL NAS X: SUN GOES DOWN won't have as much success as his latest number 1 single..Shame..it isn't as good but deserves a Top 20 entry at least!

I've never really like Anne Marie or One Direction, but for some reason her and Nial Horan's new song has been on repeat in my house - I think it's just so unashamedly radio pop music you can't help but love it and it almost feels retro for what it is - and the song rises above it .

Didn't expect MANESKIN to have so much success after the ESC..not only in the UK but everywhere in Europe!! ZITTI E BUONI is Top 5 in so many countries this week! Do hope it can make it to the Top 10 soon in the UK..just noticed their latest album charted in the UK as well last week and got a new peak this week!! Rare feat for a band that sings in ITALIAN!!

Hopefully a sign that the world is crying out for a rock revival, chance for over bands to ride the coat-tails of their success. Honestly think a eurovision of rock could do wonders for the dying genre.

Olivia Rodrigo, Easy Life and Del Amaitry's albums were all trash.
Don't deserve to be in top 10.

Maybe to you, but music tastes vary in every person. There is no perfect formula for what music is. If you don't like something, that's fine. But it doesn't mean that other people shouldn't.

After all Rock and Roll was once referred to as the devil's music..Well that devil did good on the world then and changed the course of music right up to today.

Since Olivia got both the #1 single & album for a second consecutive week, it'd be interesting for OCC to do an article on the longest "Official Chart Double" reigns ever!

Amazing to see 'Evermore' back in the Top 5 of the albums chart too! Taylor's vinyl sales are always very impressive in the UK. :)

I know that Eminem & Ariana Grande both did it last year. :)

Ed Sheeran had 5 Consecutive weeks with Divide/Shape of You, and Adele 4 with 21/Someone Like You.

But I think the longest was the Beatles with 6 weeks for Please Please Me/From Me to You.

The secret of success seems to be to have the word 'You' in the title of the single. :-)

Now Olivia is continuing that trend with 'Good 4 U' (close enough to "you"!). ;)
