Tion Wayne and Russ aiming for Number 1, Billie Eilish set for highest new entry on the Official Singles Chart
Tion Wayne & Russ Millions' Body is challenging Lil Nas X for this week’s Number 1 on the Official Chart: First Look.
The track sits at the top of the Official Chart after 48 hours, though it’s currently just 100 chart sales ahead of the reigning five-week Number 1, Montero (Call Me By Your Name) by Lil Nas X, meaning it could be a photo finish on Friday’s chart.
The Official Chart: First Look, which airs on BBC Radio 1 today between 6pm – 7pm, offers a first glance of the Top 20 ahead of Friday’s Official Singles Chart Top 100. The chart is based on preliminary sales and early streaming reports.

The most streamed single of the week so far, Body saw a ten-place uplift on last week’s chart following a bumper remix featuring Bugzy Malone, Fivio Foreign, Darkoo, Buni, ArrDee, E1 & ZT.
Meanwhile, Billie Eilish returns with Your Power, which is on course to be this week’s highest new entry at Number 6 on the First Look. If it holds on it will mark Billie’s 7th UK Top 10 hit.
Lots of songs are eyeing up brand new peaks this week, including Friday by Riton, Nightcrawlers, Mufasa & Hypeman at 3, and Let’s Go Home Together by Ella Henderson & Tom Grennan at Number 9. The Weeknd’s Save Your Tears has flown ten places in just 48 hours following a new remix featuring Ariana Grande. Currently at Number 10, it could mark a new peak for the song if it stays on track.

Confetti by Little Mix is set to fly back into the chart thanks to a new remix with American rapper Saweetie, at Number 12 today, and Majestic & Boney M’s Rasputin remix is up four places to Number 17 at the earliest point.
Finally, Kylie Minogue & Dua Lipa land at Number 20 on the First Look with Real Groove following its release on vinyl. If it can hold on, it will be Kylie’s 52nd Top 40 and highest charting single since 2014, plus Dua Lipa’s 14th Top 20 single.
The final Official Chart Top 40 will be unveiled exclusively on BBC Radio 1’s Official Chart with Scott Mills this Friday from 4pm, with the full Official Singles Chart Top 100 published on OfficialCharts.com from 5.45pm.

And another Rap,Rap,Rap,r-r-r-r-r-Rap tiresome number one no matter who it is in the UK Billboard Top 40(it's more like the US in the 90s again).

Yeah it's awful. At least the sales chart reflects what people actually PAY for rather than free streaming and all this rap trash that Spunkify push on people. That creature at number one being replaced by more creatures. Just awful
Augustus Doministrix
Exactly, Body is just such a sh*te song, not even good rap, which does exist, but not utter tuneless and like this, which has absolutely no effort in it. There’s no such thing as a good drill rap song, that’s the current horrible sub genre where all they do is talk about being in pathetic gangs and swear all the way through their, “songs”. Modern rap is honest to god awful, I haven’t heard a good rap song for 2 years now. The current crop are total garbage including this Russ guy, who was responsible for that GOD awful Gun Lean thing from a few years ago. It’s sad to see rap at such an all time low as it is right now and has been the last few years.
Just all the streamed in into this awful chart with too many stupid rules brought in to accommodate streaming making it a complete mess along with the rise of Prikcok and the awful music that comes from that, the charts are truly dead now.

Exactly man 👍

you sound like you have a lot of pent-up anger, maybe you should see a therapist

I’m really glad that confetti is reentering pretty high. I hope it doesn’t fall too much by Friday
P
PN
It will fall, but like pretty much EVERY Little Mix song it will rise again and might even get to number 1. I'm for it 100%!
J
James
I really hope so. It’s such a good remix !!
J
James
Wait why is real groove reentering?
GS
idk but its an awful surprise
Ian Robert Herechuk
It got a vinyl release
J
James
Ah okay ty
Joshua Sombra
I wouldn't really mind if 'Body' was on No.1 because I heard a bit of this song and I think it is a bop.
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
also, GET IN THERE!!! the business is on acr. always hated that song so i’m glad it’s gone! 🥳
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
finally, montero is off the top spot! i’m getting so sick of it at this point. body is a pretty good drill song too so i’m glad that’s the song that could knock it off.
your power is an easy 10/10. really hope it doesn’t keep declining in streams. i also liked the confetti remix with saweetie more than expected. i’d absolutely love it if kiss me more could enter the top 5 next week though - what an amazing song!!! 😻
real groove at number 20 is interesting to see, but it’ll have likely tanked by friday due to it being a vinyl release.
GS
soo glad body is #1, although I really hope really groove falls by Friday
Piran
I think ‘Real Groove’ will unfortunately fall out of the Top 40 by Friday, but it’s still good to see it doing so well on sales. :)
GS
hopefully it will be out the top 100 entirely 🤞
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
it’s gonna tank, due to it only being supported by vinyl.
Ian Robert Herechuk
Which is a shame. But it should have been bigger when it came out in January
Piran
Yeah, apparently it's only back in because of its release on vinyl, which often means that its sales will be very frontloaded. :/
Piran
Sadly. :/
Piran
Thankfully, I don't see it falling that far. :)
Piran
Also happy to see ‘Your Power’ debuting the Top 10 & ‘Save Your Tears’ getting an ACR reset to finally enter the region for the first time. :)
Piran
Not surprised to see a new #1 this week, thanks to ‘Body’ getting so much momentum ever since it debuted!
That being said, while I’m not so keen on the remix, the original keeps growing on me every time I hear it. :)
P
PN
Yeah, I heard it for the first time today, and I actually liked it! Very similar to Keisha and Becky. I don't see it holding up though, as much as I think it's time for a new number 1
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
all about numbers 6 and 7 for me. :)))
Piran
I knew you'd be absolutely ecstatic about Billie getting the highest new entry of the week & another debut inside the Top 10! ;)
Piran
I definitely think that it'll hold up & honestly, it's even better than 'Keisha & Becky' for me! :D
P
PN
We'll see on Friday then. I haven't seen the stats and the early sales so I dunno, but it feels like another one of those songs which gets SO many early sales but then falls off as the week goes on. I haven't heard much about Body at all as well (but then again I have been VERY busy recently so I haven't had time to check up on the music!)

Edward Bray
No it isn't body gains alot of momentum as the week goes on and it usually goes up by Friday; however, Montero(call me by your name) does the same
