Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” (Island) has been named the U.K.’s song of the summer by the Official Charts Company after shifting 800k in sales across the last three months.
The track takes first place on the OCC’s seasonal Top 10 with 92.25m streams. It spent seven non-consecutive weeks at #1 on the singles chart and is also the summer’s biggest seller on physical formats.
Carpenter’s “Please Please Please” takes second place, while “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” (American Dogwood/EMPIRE) by Shaboozey is #3. “BIRDS OF A FEATHER” (Darkroom/Interscope) by Billie Eilish and Hozier’s first U.K. #1 single, “Too Sweet” (Island), round out the Top 5.
With his “Stargazing” (RCA) at #7, Myles Smith joins Hozier as the only two British/Irish talents in the Top 10, with the remaining releases coming from U.S. artists.
UMG has seven of the 10 songs, followed by Sony and Warner with one apiece.
As for HITS, the only thing we did this summer is try not to work.
