Sam Smith and Kim Petras set for fourth consecutive week at Number 1 with Unholy
Sam Smith and Kim Petras look set to claim a fourth consecutive week atop the Official Singles Chart with Unholy, as the track leads the charge at the midweek mark.
But it’s my no means a done deal, as Anne-Marie and Aitch’s PSYCHO eyes an ascent into the Top 5 this week. In its fifth week on the chart, could their collaboration prove a contender for Number 1?

Stormzy looks set to secure this week’s highest new entry, with Hide & Seek tracking for a Number 9 debut.
Oliver Tree & Robin Schulz see their bouncy dance banger Miss You break the Top 20 for the first time, vaulting 16 spots midweek (12). Will it manage to make the Top 10 this Friday?
blink-182’s newly-reunited original line-up – Mark Hoppus, Travis Barker and Tom DeLonge - could return to the Official Singles Chart Top 20 with EDGING this week (15), as Central Cee also looks set to enjoy a new entry with One Up (17).

Nice to see the Pat Butcher look making a comeback but Sam could never and the song is terrible. The UK really has questionable taste.

Sad to see Lizzo not in the top 20
thierry henon
Over the moon to see BLINK 182 back into the Top 20!! Hope it remains there by Friday!!
thierry henon
Sad to see LIZZO out of the Top 20 after climbing the chart for so many weeks!!
thierry henon
Really hope the awful PSYCHO won't claim the number 1 spot anytime soon!! Cannot stand AITCH....Very happy to see KIM and SAM at number 1 for a 4th week...Hope it stays there for many weeks to come!!

good grief, as if we’re letting miss you become a hit 🤢🤢🤢
stormzy deserves number 1 too, hide and seek is a really chilled song and so much better than unholy.
⁉️
it’s so sad because the southstar version is so good but robin schulz’s awful ripoff is the one that charts :(

Stormsh*t with boring afrobeats that belong more to Burna Boy, and Central Sh*t with another filler drill.
And go away, Another Love.
omie
thats kinda racist doe

how long has it been since a rap song made the no1 spot? since dave's starlight. i think stormzy or central cee will make it next
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
not only that, but jid released one of the best albums this year (the forever story) and has been really slept on. i hope underrated rap does well next year
H
HazDaSprinter
stormzy should also crack the top 5 no offence to aitch but the dead song psycho wont be in the top 5
C
Conor
yeah psycho is only in the top 5 due to cd singles so i doubt it'll stay top 5 by friday, im predicting maybe #6/#7 for it officilly
H
HazDaSprinter
hope doja makes the top 20, no more leaks by cench shud help it! one up shud debut in the top 10 if the things stay the same for it
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
doja’s on acr bruh
Piran
, to see 'Bad Habit' dropping out of the Top 10, not helped by the fact that 'Psycho' is still climbing fast either. :/
H
HazDaSprinter
idk how they are tho, prob jus a few day ting?
Piran
Annoyingly, I actually think it has genuine momentum & it'll be Top 5 in the final chart. :/
H
HazDaSprinter
no, i dont. the only thing that helps is streaming, which is set to fall cuz of stormzy, central cee and oliver tree. still wondering how oliver tree isnt in the top 10, big streaming success
Piran
Remember that the First Look puts a higher weighting on sales, so 'Miss You' will likely be higher in the final chart if it's a streaming hit. 🤔
H
HazDaSprinter
true, true. this could potentially mean psycho could leave the top 5
Piran
I don't think 'Miss You' will make it into the Top 5, but maybe Top 10. 🤔
H
HazDaSprinter
its no3 in the streaming charts. its a heavy climber, ik.
C
Conor
psycho is only climbing cos theres a cd single out, without it it wouldn't be in the top 5
Piran
Glad to see Stormzy in the Top 10 after only a couple of days! ✊🏿
H
HazDaSprinter
inniii excited for his album
Piran
If it's anything like 'Heavy Is The Head', then I'm hyped! 😊
H
HazDaSprinter
its going to be a banger, i jus kno it
Piran
It's Stormzy, so incredibly likely. :)
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
i’ve been addicted to the song since it dropped
Piran
Doesn't beat 'Mel Made Me Do It' for me, but it's definitely still a decent listen for me. :)
H
HazDaSprinter
still no doja back in the top 20?
Piran
, Southstar was literally robbed of a Top 20 hit! 😔
Aaron
I'd say both will be top 20 eventually :)
Piran
Things will get incredibly interesting if that were to happen! 😅
