The Year of Olivia Dean
Olivia Dean’s victory lap doesn’t end at the top spot. It has been officially confirmed that her solo hit “Man I Need” is the Official biggest song of 2026 so far. Demonstrating incredible staying power, the track spent its 30th non-consecutive week inside the Top 10, actually climbing one place this week to Number 9.
Dominic Fike’s Chart Renaissance
Florida-born multihyphenate Dominic Fike is enjoying a massive resurgence. Just seven days after his 2018 track “Babydoll” broke into the Top 10 for the first time, his 2025 slow-burner “White Keys” has followed suit, landing at Number 10. This milestone completes a “hat-trick” of UK Top 10 hits for Fike, adding to the success of his 2019 breakout “3 Nights.”
Ones to Watch and Cinematic Comebacks
The chart is also seeing a surge of new energy and nostalgic revivals:
Ella Langley: The American singer-songwriter is officially “one to watch” as her hit “Choosin’ Texas” skyrocketed 12 places to Number 16. The surge comes just as her second studio album, Dandelion, hits shelves.
ANOTR: Dutch dance duo ANOTR earned their first-ever Top 40 accolade as “Talk To You” (featuring 54 Ultra) blasted 19 spots to Number 29.
Zara Larsson: The Swedish pop star continues to dominate with two tracks climbing the ranks—the revived 2016 classic “Lush Life” (4) and the ever-growing “Midnight Sun” (12).
Finally, Hollywood has sparked a major chart return for Harry Styles. His 2017 debut solo single “Sign of the Times” has re-entered the Top 40 at Number 28 for the first time in nine years, following its prominent feature in the blockbuster sci-fi film Project Hail Mary.
