One thing I noticed about the UK Singles Chart is the fact that it has a higher chart turnover rate than the Hot 100 chart.
Ehh, the UK chart is as slow as the Hot 100 these days. It was much faster moving in the pre-streaming days.

With 7 weeks at #1, "One Dance" now ties "Uptown Funk" for the longest running #1 of the decade, and the first song to spend 7
consecutive weeks at #1 since "Bleeding Love". Pretty boring top 40 otherwise, aside from a few European/Australian hits moving up (Gnash, Cheat Codes, Kungs).
