List of UK top-ten singles in 2019

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Scottish singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi had the best-selling single of 2019 with "Someone You Loved", which spent seven weeks at number-one and had a total of 31 non-consecutive weeks in the top 10. Capaldi achieved four more top 10 singles this year, including "Before You Go", which would eventually peak at number-one on 6 February 2020.
Lil Nas X spent 16 consecutive weeks in the UK top 10 with his hit single "Old Town Road, which peaked at number-one for two weeks. It went on to become the second best selling single of this year.
Australian singer and songwriter Tones and I spent eleven consecutive weeks at number-one in the UK Singles Chart with her song "Dance Monkey", which not only became the longest-running chart-topper of 2019, but also broke the record for the most weeks spent at the top of the UK charts by a female artist.

The UK Singles Chart is one of many music charts compiled by the Official Charts Company that calculates the best-selling singles of the week in the United Kingdom.[1] Since 2004 the chart has been based on the sales of both physical singles and digital downloads, with airplay figures excluded from the official chart.[2][3] Since 2014, the singles chart has been based on both sales and streaming, with the ratio altered in 2017 to 150:1 streams and only three singles by the same artist eligible for the chart.[4][5] From July 2018, video streams from YouTube Music and Spotify among others began to be counted for the Official Charts. This list shows singles that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart during 2019, as well as singles which peaked in 2018 and 2020 but were in the top 10 in 2019. The entry date is when the song appeared in the top 10 for the first time (week ending, as published by the Official Charts Company, which is six days after the chart is announced).

One-hundred and six singles were in the top ten this year. Twelve singles from 2018 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year, while "Before You Go" by Lewis Capaldi, "Own It" by Stormzy featuring Ed Sheeran and Burna Boy, "River" by Ellie Goulding and "Roxanne" by Arizona Zervas were all released in 2019 but did not reach their peak until 2020. "All I Want for Christmas is You" by Mariah Carey, "Fairytale of New York" by The Pogues featuring Kirsty MacColl, "Last Christmas" by Wham!, "Nothing Breaks Like a Heart" by Mark Ronson featuring Miley Cyrus, "Rewrite the Stars" by James Arthur featuring Anne-Marie, "Sunflower" by Post Malone featuring Swae Lee and "Sweet but Psycho" by Ava Max were the singles from 2018 to reach their peak in 2019. Twenty-two artists scored multiple entries in the top ten in 2019. AJ Tracey, Billie Eilish, Lewis Capaldi and Troye Sivan were among the many artists who achieved their first top 10 single in 2019.

The first number-one single of the year was "Sweet but Psycho" by Ava Max. Overall, eleven different singles peaked at number-one in 2019, with Ed Sheeran (3) having the most singles hit that position. An asterisk (*) in the "Weeks in Top 10" column shows that the song is currently in the top 10.

Non-mover top 12

The top 12 singles on the chart on 13 June 2019 (week ending), all remained at their positions from the previous week. The singles included "I Don't Care" by Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber at 1, "Old Town Road" by Lil Nas X at 2, "Someone You Loved" by Lewis Capaldi at 3, "Vossi Bop" by Stormzy at 4, "Bad Guy" by Billie Eilish at 5, "Piece of Your Heart" by Meduza featuring Goodboys at 6, "Hold Me While You Wait" by Lewis Capaldi at 7, "SOS" by Avicii featuring Aloe Blacc at 8, "Cross Me" by Ed Sheeran featuring Chance the Rapper and PnB Rock at 9, "If I Can't Have You" by Shawn Mendes at 10, "All Day and Night" by Jax Jones, Martin Solveig and Madison Beer at 11 and "Location" by Dave featuring Burna Boy at 12.[6]

LadBaby back-to-back Christmas number-ones

[edit]

YouTube vlogger LadBaby (real name Mark Hoyle) and his wife Roxy created a slice of chart history as they achieved a second successive Christmas number-one with their parody of "I Love Rock 'n' Roll", re-titled "I Love Sausage Rolls". They had first topped the chart in 2018 with another parody single based on "We Built This City", raising money for the food charity Trussell Trust. They became only the second act after Spice Girls to score back-to-back Christmas chart toppers, and it was also the first time in history where two novelty singles reached Christmas number-one in successive years.

On the flipside, the sales dropped off in its second week and the single fell to number 57, meaning they also joined Elvis Presley as only the second act to see two number-one singles fall out of the top 10 straight from the top spot. His reissued singles "One Night"/"I Got Stung" and "It's Now or Never" from 2005 both dropped out of the top 10 the week after topping the chart. "We Built This City" had slipped from number-one to number 21 in the space of a week at the end of 2018.

[edit]

Forty-two artists achieved their first charting top 10 single in 2019. Four acts have had a second single reach the top 10: Russ, Tion Wayne, AJ Tracey, and Headie One.

Normani Kordei made her solo top 10 chart debut with "Dancing with a Stranger" by Sam Smith after following two top 10 hits with Fifth Harmony. Brendon Urie, the lead singer of Panic! At the Disco, had never previously achieved a top 10 single in over a decade career with his group, the closest to this milestone "High Hopes", peaked at number twelve in 2018. However, he made his solo top 10 debut by featuring on "Me!".

Songs from films

[edit]

Original songs from various films entered the top 10 throughout the year. These included "Sunflower" (from Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse) and "Don't Call Me Angel" (Charlie's Angels).

[edit]
Stormzy scored six top 10 entries this year. "Vossi Bop" debuted at number-one in May and became his first single to top the UK chart.

"Own It", which also featured Sheeran as well as Nigerian singer Burna Boy, would reach its peak of number-one on 9 January 2020.
2019 also proved to be a successful year for Shawn Mendes, who achieved two top 10 hits, including his duet with Camila Cabello, "Señorita", which spent six weeks at number-one. "Señorita" was the second UK chart-topper for both Mendes and Cabello.
