Styles’ Harry’s House (Columbia) returns to the top for a third non-consecutive week, making it the longest-running #1 album of 2022. Drake’s Honestly, Nevermind, his seventh studio album, debuts at #2 and is the week’s most-streamed collection.

Life Is Yours (Warner) from Oxfordshire rock band Foals enters at #3 and is the week’s biggest seller on physical formats: it’s #1 on the Official Vinyl Chart and the Official Record Store Chart.

The Smile—Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood’s trio with Sons of Kemet drummer Tom Skinner—break into the Top 5 for the first time as A Light For Attracting Attention (XL) posts impressive physical sales. Jesse Buckley and Bernard Butler’s debut, For All Our Days That Tear The Heart (EMI), opens at #23 and the second album from Nova Twins,Supernova (Marshall), zips in at #27.

At singles, Bush’s “Running Up That Hill” (Fish People) celebrates a second week at #1 on 79k chart sales which includes 8.7m streams.

Two songs hit new highs in this week's Top 5: LF System’s “Afraid To Feel” (Warner) is up one place to #3 and George Ezra’s “Green Green Grass” (Columbia) hits #5. 

And Drake’s three Top 10 debuts are “Jimmy Cooks” f/21 Savage at #7, “Massive” at #8 and “Falling Back” at #10.

Outside the Top 10, Joji scores his first U.K. Top 20 hit with “Glimpse Of Us” (12 Tone) and Beyoncé’s  Break My Soul” (Columbia) lands at #21, giving her 36 U.K. Top 40 hits.
