Encanto fever continues as We Don’t Talk About Bruno settles in for a sixth week at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart, racking up over 7.8 million UK streams over the past seven days. The Disney movie’s grip on the UK Top 10 doesn’t slacken this week, either. Jessica Darrow’s Surface Pressure climbs back one spot to a re-peak of Number 3, while The Family Madrigal holds steady at Number 8.
But are its days at the top numbered? Afrobeats legend Fireboy DML and Ed Sheeran once again re-peak at Number 2 with Peru, but the boys will have to put in a lot of work to de-roost Bruno from the top spot.
It’s also an impressive week for rising teen pop star Mimi Webb, who scorches into the Top 10 with House On Fire - this week’s highest new entry at Number 6, and a personal best for Mimi on the Official Chart, her previous highest peak was Number 8 for Good Without.
Thanking fans for their support, Mimi told : "It's crazy seeing the response to this song. The fans absolutely love it [...]I'm just going for it and having a laugh. It's such a cool song to start the year with."
Three more ascending hits also reach new peaks inside the Top 10; Lost Frequencies and Calum Scott’s Where Are You Now, rises to Number 5, Belters Only featuring Jazzy leap to Number 5 with Make Me Feel Good and Australian DJ Luude’s Down Under featuring Men At Work’s Colin Hay jumps to Number 9.
Outside the Top 10, Ed Sheeran’s Bad Habits rebounds seven spots to Number 11 thanks to its new Bring Me The Horizon remix, while D-Block Europe and AJ Tracey clinch this week’s highest climber – Make You Smile jumps 26 places to Number 19.
Another new entry at Number 21 from Tion Wayne and M24 with Knock Knock. The collaboration becomes Tion’s 12th Top
