Harry Styles claims huge second solo number one single

Harry Styles claims huge second solo number one single
Harry Styles claims the fastest-selling single of the year with 'As It Was', which becomes his second solo number one.

Harry Styles has gone in straight at number one with new single 'As It Was', the second time he has hit the top spot as a solo artist.

The '80s-style track - recorded during coronavirus isolation - delivered a massive 94,000 chart sales to rank as the best first week figures of the year to date.

The sales figure includes an impressive 10.5 million streams and ends Dave's four-week stint at the summit with 'Starlight', which is down to two.

Aitch and Ashanti's 'Baby' is also down one place to three, while Lost Frequencies and Calum Scott stay put at four with 'Where Are You Now' and Fireboy DML and Ed Sheeran's 'Peru' holds firm at five.

On the albums chart, Red Hot Chili Peppers claim their fifth UK number one album with Unlimited Love - their first chart-topper since 2011's I'm With You.

Elsewhere, The Wanted's Most Wanted: The Greatest Hits re-enters the chart at 22 following the tragic death of Tom Parker last week.
