Justin Bieber Scores Eighth U.K. No. 1 Single With ‘Daisies’

Justin Bieber has earned his eighth U.K No. 1 hit with “Daisies” topping the Official Singles Chart on Friday (July 25).

The song appears on Swag, his recent surprise album that dropped on July 11. The 20-track record landed at No. 4 on the U.K. Albums Chart last week, and features collaborators such as Mk.gee, Dijon and Cash Cobain.

“Daisies” lifts three places week-on-week to give Bieber his first No. 1 single in six years, and his first as a solo artist since 2015. Bieber has previously topped the charts with “What Do You Mean?” (2015), “Sorry” (2015), “Love Yourself” (2015), “Cold Water” with Major Lazer and MØ (2016); “I’m the One” with DJ Khaled, Quavo, Chance the Rapper and Lil Wayne (2017); “Despacito” (Remix) with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee (2017); and “I Don’t Care” with Ed Sheeran (2019).

Bieber now pulls level with The Rolling Stones and Sam Smith on the all-time rankings, both of whom also have eight chart-toppers. Elvis Presley holds the all-time record with 21.

After two weeks at the summit, MK and Chrystal’s “Dior” falls one place to No. 2 and Alex Warren’s “Eternity” is the highest new entry at No. 3. His debut LP You’ll Be Alright, Kid hits No. 1 on the U.K. Official Albums Chart this week to give him his maiden chart-topping album.

Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters scores three songs in the top 20 with “Golden” by HUNTR/X, EJAE, AUDREY NUNA and REI AMI peaking at No. 4. Sabrina Carpenter’s “Manchild” completes the top five, closing the week at No. 5.
