The dance pair are facing off against the formidable duo of Sam Fender and Olivia Dean, whose collaborative smash hit “Rein Me In” currently holds the line at number one. Fender and Dean are fighting to maintain their historical dominance at the summit of the charts, but the sudden, football-fueled surge from the Dutch producers means the race for Friday’s official crown is tighter than ever.
The mid-week update reveals a highly active week for electronic and dance music across the UK. Setting a course for another new peak and its very first Top 5 placing, the popular summer anthem “Free Your Mind” by Prospa and Cloonee has jumped up four places to land at number three. Similarly enjoying a sun-drenched chart boost is Hugel, Imael Angel, and Ultra Naté’s “Movin’ To The Sun,” which has lifted four places on the First Look standings to secure number 12.
Beyond the dance floor, global K-Pop superstars BTS are comfortably on track to claim this week’s highest new entry with their latest track, “Normal,” which debuts on the preliminary list at number 13. If the celebrated seven-piece group can maintain their current sales and streaming velocity through the rest of the week, it will officially mark their 13th Top 40 single and eighth Top 20 song in the United Kingdom. Additionally, country-pop crossover track “Boston” by Stella Lefty continues its steady climb, moving up one place after the first 48 hours of tracking to settle in at number 17.
