Sam Fender and Olivia Dean Target Historic 14th Week at No. 1 with Rein Me In

June 22, 2026

Sam Fender and Olivia Dean are orchestrating a notable comeback on the UK Singles Chart as their collaboration, “Rein Me In,” vies to reclaim the peak position. The freshest Official Singles Chart First Look report indicates the track is aiming for an extraordinary 14th non-consecutive week at Number 1, potentially tying with historic chart milestones set by Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” and Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You.”

After a three-week hiatus from the summit, the revival is driven by a milestone marking one year since its release. To celebrate a full year since it dropped, fans were treated to a limited-edition pink 7-inch vinyl pressing, which sparked a robust rise in physical sales and early streaming figures ahead of Friday’s final Top 100 lineup.

Midweek figures reveal a dynamic chart landscape beyond the very top, with several tracks on track to secure fresh peaks. Leading the charge is Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas,” currently on track to breach the Top 10 for the first time at Number 10. Just outside the upper tier, Prospa and Cloonee’s “Free Your Mind” is climbing to Number 12, followed closely by Silva Bumpa’s summer anthem “On 2nite” at Number 14.

The rising talent scene is making waves as well, with Official Charts “Ones To Watch” alumna Sienna Spiro seeing her single “Material Lover” aiming for a prospective peak at Number 15. Other notable movers include ANOTR and 54 Ultra’s “Talk To You” at Number 16, Stella Lefty’s “Boston” at Number 17, and a sizeable jump for Calvin Harris and Clementine Douglas’s summer hit “Blessings” to Number 27.

International football tournament fever is also seeping into the charts. Nick Morgan’s “No Scotland, No Party”—the unofficial anthem originally released for Euro 2024—has been widely revived by fans to celebrate Scotland’s 2026 World Cup participation, setting the track up for its first appearance inside the main UK charts at Number 32.
