Little Mix are the first girl group to top the charts for two consecutive weeks with the same single in eight years. The pop quartet keep a tight grip on the singles top 40 with Black Magic, their third UK No 1.
The X Factor girl group beat former chart-topper Are You With Me by Lost Frequencies, which climbs back to No 2. The Belgian DJ’s track is, however, this week’s most streamed song, with 2.5m streams. The rest of the top 5 is made up of Shine by Years & Years – a band who also remain at the top of the album charts – David Zowie’s House Every Weekend and John Newman’s Come and Get It, which debuts at No 5, becoming his fifth top 10 single.
In the album charts, Years & Years’ debut, Communion, claims a second week at No 1 today. It has outsold its nearest competitor, Ed Sheeran’s x (at No 2) by more than 7,000 copies, according to the Official Charts Company.
The week’s highest new entry comes from Aussie psyche group Tame Impala, who score their highest Official Albums Chart position to date with Currents at No 3.
Chart mainstays – James Bay’s Chaos and the Calm and Sam Smith’s In the Lonely Hour – cap off the rest of the week’s top 5, both sliding one place.
