Several amazing new hits emerged since the start of 2024, but none of them managed to dethrone Noah Kahan’s “Stick Season” in the UK. The indie singer managed to return to No. 1 for a fourth consecutive week, spending a full month atop the Official UK Singles Chart.

“Stick Season” was the most-streamed track in the United Kingdom during its latest week on the chart, with 8.7 million streams in this country. To make the whole thing even better, it’s not Kahan’s only song in the top five this week—he also hit No. 5 with the new version of “Homesick” featuring Sam Fender.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s “Murder on the Dancefloor” is keeping steady at No. 2 following the renaissance it experienced after being featured in the final scene of Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn. It’s not the only song riding the nostalgia wave this week – Natasha Bedingfield’s Unwritten hit No. 13 after being featured in the hit rom-com Anyone But You.

As for the rest of the top five in the UK, Ariana Grande’s “Yes, And?” fell to No. 3 after initially debuting at No. 2. Jack Harlow’s “Lovin On Me”, his first career chart-topper in the UK, is holding steady at No. 4 after 11 weeks on the chart.

Take That was one of the most iconic British boy bands during the 90s, and they’re still going strong almost three decades later. Their latest album This Life soared to No. 1 in the UK, with the biggest first-week sales of the year for a British act.

Mark Owen, Howard Donald, and Gary Barlow released their latest album as Take That on November 24. They reunited as a trio in 2014, without Jason Orange and Robbie Williams, and this is their third album together after III in 2014 and Wonderland in 2017.

With 116,000 chart units sold in its first seven days, This Life easily topped the UK Albums Chart, becoming Take That’s ninth No. 1 album. It also became the fastest-selling record by a British act, surpassing Lewis Capaldi’s Broken By Desire to Be Heavenly Sent, which earned 95,000 chart units during its first week.

Owen, Donald, and Barlow told Official Charts that they’re grateful to hit No. 1 with This Life, and they’re now turning their attention to their upcoming tour.

“Thank you to our fans from the bottom of our hearts for every bit of love they’ve shown us this year, whether it was coming for a singalong at BST Hyde Park in the summer or streaming and buying the album this week… We cannot wait to take this show on the road,” they said in a statement.

Kylie Minogue never had any trouble topping the chart in the UK, and she’s done it once again! Her latest album Tension soared to No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart, becoming her ninth studio album to do so and outselling the rest of the top five combined along the way.

Tension hit the shelves on September 22 and easily soared to No. 1 in the UK, with 53,239 album-equivalent units earned. It’s Minogue fourth consecutive No. 1 album in this country and ninth overall, making her the third female artist with the most UK number-one albums, behind Madonna with 12 and Taylor Swift with 10.

The success of Tension can largely be credited to its lead single “Padam Padam”. This song became a surprise viral hit following its release in May, and Minogue said she was both surprised and grateful after seeing it find a huge audience on TikTok.

“I’ve been so touched and amazed at people’s ingenuity, passion, and humor. We all had high hopes for the song, but I don’t think any of us expected it to take off the way it did as a viral hit. So I’m going along with the ride and we’ve had to pivot as well – because it was unexpected,” she told Music Week.
