List of UK top-ten singles in 2017

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ed Sheeran was the dominant artist of 2017, achieving a total of 11 UK top 10 singles during the year, two of which topped the chart. "Shape of You" became both the longest-reigning number-one single of 2017 and the best-selling single of the year. Ten of the sixteen tracks from his third studio album ÷ reached the top 10. The remix of "Perfect" featuring Beyoncé helped the song to become the year's Christmas number-one single.
Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi collaborated with compatriot Daddy Yankee on "Despacito", which became the second best selling single of this year, spending eleven non-consecutive weeks at number-one and eighteen weeks in the top 10 altogether.
Ex-Fifth Harmony member Camila Cabello had her first solo top 10 hit in 2017 with "Havana", a collaboration with Young Thug, which spent five weeks at number-one.
English singer Dua Lipa marked her top 10 debut this year with four entries, including "New Rules", which peaked at number-one for two weeks in August.

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; in 2017 it used the ratio of 150 streams equivalent to one sale (not 100:1 as previously).[4] This list shows singles that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart during 2017, as well as singles which peaked in 2016 and 2018 but were in the top 10 in 2017. 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).

Ninety-eight singles were in the top ten this year. Eleven singles from 2016 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year, while "Man's Not Hot" by Big Shaq, "I Miss You" by Clean Bandit featuring Julia Michaels, "River" by Eminem, "17" by MK and "Let You Down" by NF were released in 2017 but did not reach their peak until 2018. "Last Christmas" by Wham! and "Fairytale of New York" by The Pogues featuring Kirsty MacColl both re-entered the top ten at the end of the year after being re-issued and reached peaks on their current run in 2018. "I Would Like" by Zara Larsson was the only song from 2016 to reach its peak in 2017. Twenty-four artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2017. Alessia Cara, DJ Khaled, Dua Lipa, Julia Michaels and Post Malone were among the many artists who achieved their first UK charting top 10 single in 2017.

The 2016 Christmas number-one, "Rockabye" by Clean Bandit featuring Anne-Marie and Sean Paul, remained at number-one for the first two weeks of 2017. The first new number-one single of the year was "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran. Overall, fifteen different singles peaked at number-one in 2017, with Anne-Marie, Clean Bandit, DJ Khaled, Dua Lipa, Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber (2) having the most singles hit that position.

Background[]

Multiple entries[]

Ninety-eight singles charted in the top 10 in 2017, with eighty-two singles reaching their peak this year (including the re-entry "All I Want for Christmas" which charted in previous years but reached a peak on its latest chart run).

Twenty-four artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2017. Ed Sheeran had the most top ten singles in 2017 with eleven. His comeback single "Shape of You" was made available for download on 6 January and has spent fourteen non-consecutive weeks at number-one while "Castle on the Hill", which came out on the same day, peaked at number two. Promotional single "How Would You Feel (Paean)" also reached a high of second in the chart on 2 March.

After Sheeran's third studio album, "÷" was released, all sixteen tracks were in the top 20 on the week ending 16 March, and he held nine of the top 10, with "Something Just Like This" by The Chainsmokers and Coldplay the only single to break this monopoly.[5] In addition to the singles already in the chart, "Galway Girl (2), "Perfect" (4), "New Man" (5) "Happier" (6), "Dive" (8), and "Supermarket Flowers" (9, rising to 8) and "What Do I Know?" all reaching the top ten. In response, the Official Charts Company announced plans in June to limit the number of songs by the same artist in the chart at the same time, to reflect popularity of singles rather than album tracks.[6] "Perfect" returned to the chart later in the year after its official single release and became the Christmas number-one, with Sheeran'/ collaboration with Eminem, "River", behind it in the chart. "River" would eventually reach the top spot itself in early 2018.

Dua Lipa had four top 10 entries in 2017 with "Be the One", "Bridge over Troubled Water", "New Rules" and "No Lie". Justin Bieber, Little Mix, Rita Ora and Stormzy also had four top 10 entries so far this year.

Drake is one of eight artists who had three hit singles in 2017. "Passionfruit" entered the chart at number 4 on 30 March and rose to number three the following week. Two of his other album tracks from More Life peaked in the top 10 - KMT featuring the rapper Giggs reached number 9 and "Blem" landed one place lower.

Anne-Marie, Clean Bandit, James Arthur, Louis Tomlinson, Quavo, Sean Paul and Taylor Swift all had three top 10 entries in 2017.

DJ Khaled is one of a number of artists with two top-ten entries, including number-one singles "I'm the One" and "Wild Thoughts". Charlie Puth, Eminem, Katy Perry, Selena Gomez and Zara Larsson were among the other artists with multiple top 10 entries in 2017.

All-female top 3[]

"New Rules" by Dua Lipa became the first solo female UK number one since Adele reached number 1 in 2015 with "Hello". The top 3 singles on the chart on 7 September 2017 (week ending), was the first female top 3 since October 2014. The singles included "Look What You Made Me Do" by Taylor Swift at 1, "New Rules" by Dua Lipa at 2 and "What About Us" by Pink at 3.

Changes to chart rules[]

The Official Charts Company announced plans in June to limit the number of songs by the same artist in the chart at the same time, to reflect popularity of singles rather than album tracks.[6] Chart rules were altered from 7 July to help new artists break through by limiting the number of tracks by the same artist allowed in the chart at the same time to 3. The streaming to sales ratio remained largely unchanged but for songs which have spent a high number of weeks in the chart the ratio was altered to 300:1.[6] This was largely in response to Ed Sheeran's album tracks dominating the chart, with all sixteen tracks from his third studio album ÷, reaching the top twenty in the same week.

Chart debuts[]

Forty-nine artists achieved their first top 10 single in 2017, either as a lead or featured artist. Of these, six went on to record another hit single that year: Alessia Cara, DJ Khaled, Julia Michaels, Khalid, Marshmello and RAYE. Dua Lipa had three other entries in her breakthrough year.

Harry Styles made his solo debut in 2017, with his first single outside One Direction, "Sign of the Times", topping the chart in April. Likewise with Liam Payne, he made his solo debut in 2017, with his first single outside One Direction, "Strip That Down" entered the top 10 at number 3. Quavo is a member of the hip-hop group Migos, who debuted on the Calvis Harris single in "Slide" in March 2017, two months before he featured on DJ Khaled's number-one hit "I'm the One". He would also appear with Liam Payne on his solo top three single "Strip That Down".

Camila Cabello also made her first UK top 10 debut with Havana. This also became her first top 10 since her departure from US girl group Fifth Harmony.

Artists for Grenfell recorded a cover of "Bridge over Troubled Water" in aid of the Grenfell Tower fire and featured many artists who had achieved top 10 singles previously in their own right or with a band. Carl Barat of The Libertines, Jon McClure from Reverend and the Makers, Matt Goss from Bros., Kelly Jones of Stereophonics, The Who's Pete Townshend and former Westlife member Shane Filan all had their first credited top 10 hit independent of their bands with this song.
