Miley Cyrus' 'Flowers' Makes It 3 Weeks At Number 1
5 February 2023, 18:55
Three weeks at the top for Miley Cyrus' smash lead single 'Flowers' from upcoming album 'Endless Summer Vacation'. This is Miley's second song to chart for three consecutive weeks at the top spot, sharing the title with 2020's 'Midnight Sky'.
Miley fought off competition from Sam Smith's 'I'm Not Here To Make Friends' and P!NK's 'TRUSTFALL', coming in at Number 2 and 3 respectively. Both are huge climbers, with Sam's second single from their latest album 'Gloria', up 19 places, and P!NK's titular song from upcoming album up 23 places. Could one of these songs make further gains to take the top spot from Miley next week?
Elsewhere in the top 10, KSI and Oliver Tree's new collaboration 'Voices' reaches a new peak of Number 6. This is KSI's 11th song in the Top 10, and Oliver Tree's joint highest placement on the chart, alongside last year's Robin Schulz' collaboration 'Miss You', which peaked at Number 6. Could the collaboration be a new achievement for the pair?
This week's Top 10 looks like this! 🤩
