Top of the Pops, 19th December 2019

With one week to go, the contenders for Christmas number 1 are manoeuvring into position, spearheaded by the mighty Stormzy and then Dua Lipa. Although it all presupposes that it's even possible to dislodge Tones & I, who is inching up the all-time list of long-running number 1s.

Also in the festive spirit (ie wearing Santa hats) are Leona Lewis, Lewis Capaldi and the highest new entrant Harry Styles. And britrap, the genre of 2019, is not forgotten thanks to Young T and Bugsey (as well as Stormzy of course).

Top of the Pops, 12th December 2019

It's a big week for chart climbers. Not only do we have the annual Christmas song invasion, but returning friend of the show The Weeknd leapfrogs all of them, and Ellie Goulding has been pretty nifty too.

Christmas is represented by an old performance from Wham! and an in-person appearance by Ariana Grande. And with many of the acts climbing the chart being from the 70s, Trevor Daniel is able to sneak himself an invitation from number 40.

PRESENTERS: Dannii Minogue and JB Gill

Top of the Pops, 5th December 2019

Stormzy launches his bid for Christmas number 1, recruiting King Ed Sheeran and chart dark horse Burna Boy to help him. But it's looking like Tones & I may cling on, having first topped the chart back in October.

Lower down we've got another appearance for the resurgent Ella Henderson, the new one from DigDat, an exclusive version from KSI, and that nice Niall Horan.

Debuts: None

PRESENTERS: Will Young and Gareth Gates

Top of the Pops, 28th November 2019

As we hurtle towards December, there are new entries from three big names: chart leviathan Lewis Capaldi, tousled enigma Harry Styles (who performs his longer runner Lights Up as well) and biggest of all, Miss 2019 Billie Eilish, who continues to make it look very easy.

There's also a special party performance from Lizzo with help from Tones & I, a debut appearance from Endor, and some rather off-putting racket from Blackbear.

Debuts: Endor

Endor - Pump It Up

Up 7 to number 29

PRESENTER: Richie Neville and Abz Breen

Top of the Pops, 21st November 2019

The britrap train just doesn't stop: four new entries this week, from the returning KSI and serial hitmakers J Hus, Fredo and Dave, and Dave does a double performance because one of his older hits is climbing back up the chart as well.

On the sung side of things we have that nice Niall Horan as well as Maroon 5, and nothing can shift Tones & I from the top.

Debuts: S-X, Arizona Zervas

KSI ft. Rick Ross, Lil Baby and S-X - Down Like That

Seventh week at number 1

PRESENTER: Heidi Range

Top of the Pops, 14th November 2019

It's six weeks at the top now for Tones & I, moving into elite territory. Dua Lipa breezes past everyone else, but can't unseat the mighty Australian, but gives us an imperious and ebullient performance nonetheless.

Harry Styles is back, making it three earnest troubadours on the show this week, and there's a chartbreaker double bill from Krept and Konan.

Debuts: Ling Hussle

Top of the Pops, 7th November 2019

The new Kanye West album is out, so we have the man himself in the studio performing its three strongest-streaming tracks. Although Selena Gomez has outperformed all of them, zooming up the chart and into the top three.

We've also got friends of the show Coldplay returning with the very Coldplayesque Orphans, another riotous performance from Lizzo, and some terrible misogynistic din from Blackbear.

Debuts: Blackbear

PRESENTER: Kimberley Walsh

Top of the Pops, 31st October 2019

A few long-running hits finally get over the TOTP appearance threshold: Lizzo's Good As Hell (an Ariana Grande remix will do it), Maroon 5's Memories and Riton's Turn Me On. Meduza and Goodboys are also making some serious inroads and friend of the show Aitch is here once again, but not even King Ed Sheeran can knock Tones & I off the summit.

Debuts: Vula

Ed Sheeran and Camila Cabello - South Of The Border

Up 3 to number 4

Top of the Pops, 24th October 2019

Three weeks at number 1 now for Tones & I; where did that come from? She performs a candlelight mix this week.

Lower down the chart, we've got a big new entry from Harry Styles and a pretty big chartbreaker from Tiesto and Mabel. Chart colossus Lewis Capaldi is back again, and he also guests on a nice exclusive version of Circles with Post Malone.

Debuts: None

PRESENTER: James Masterton

Top of the Pops, 17th October 2019

Fear not, Ed Sheeran fans: the king only misses one week before coming back with the next song on his collabo conveyor belt, this time featuring Cardi B and friend of the show Camila Cabello. But Tones & I is holding on to the top spot for now, despite strong competition from Travis Scott.

Dave, Aitch and Jorja Smith provide yet another strong britrap/britrnb contingent, and we have three songs from Summer Walker, whose album has had a big impact slightly further down the chart.

Debuts: Summer Walker

Second week at number 1

PRESENTERS: Harry and Jamie Redknapp

Top of the Pops, 10th October 2019

There are a lot of familiar faces on the show this week - Sam Smith, chart mastodon Lewis Capaldi, Post Malone, friend of the show Aitch - but one thing we did NOT expect was the number 1. Tones & I leaps like Katarina Johnson-Thompson to take the top spot, so maximum credit to her.

Debuts: None

Post Malone - Circles

Up 3 to number 6

Lewis Capaldi - Bruises

Highest Re-Entry - In at number 11

PRESENTERS: Zoella and Joe Swash

Top of the Pops, 3rd October 2019

After last week's chart mayhem, this TOTP is the complete opposite: every song in the top 5 gets to appear, and they're all tracks that have been around for quite some time. Crowning it all is King Ed Sheeran, still top of the chart, though he mixes it up a bit by mixing in a bit of Beautiful People, thanks to a cameo by friend of the show Khalid.

For a bit of variety we do have a triple bill from Burna Boy, who features on three chart climbers this week. He performs his bits of all of them, bringing along TOTP debutante Mahalia to help with the most obscure of the three.

Debuts: Mahalia

Sam Feldt ft. Rani - Post Malone

Up 2 to number 15

Burna Boy with Mahalia - Location / Be Honest / Simmer

Up 10 to number 39 / Up 2 to number 16 / Up 1 to number 53

Fifth week at number 1 / Up 2 to number 25

PRESENTER: Dannii Minogue

Top of the Pops, 26th September 2019

It's been pretty slow-moving chart lately, but this week we have absolute fireworks. Not only does the Charlie's Angels theme crash in just short of the top spot (sadly only two of the pop triumvirate are here to perform it) but we also have chartbreakers from Stormzy, Normani, Dave, D-Block Europe and a resurgent Lil Nas X.

Most surprising of all must be a TOTP return for Ozzy Osbourne, alongside his good friend Post Malone. In a week of turmoil, the only certainty is that King Ed Sheeran still reigns at the top.

Debuts: None

Stormzy - Wiley Flow

In at number 37

Ariana Grande and Miley Cyrus - Don't Call Me Angel

Highest New Entry - In at number 2

PRESENTER: Nihal

Top of the Pops, 19th September 2019

What a year it's been for new friend of the show Aitch. He performs two strong new entries this week, as well as returning to guest on the Young T and Bugsey track. The mighty Stormzy also does double duty, bringing us solo sounds as well as reprising his turn on Take Me Back To London, still at the top.

We've also got energetic chart breakthroughs from Tones & I and Regard, another big new entry from Post Malone, and a second appearance for the reflective sounds of Dermot Kennedy.

Debuts: Tones & I, Ziezie, Tyreezy, Regard

Third week at number 1

PRESENTERS: Heidi Range, Jade Ewen and Amelle Berrabah

Top of the Pops, 12th September 2019

Once again more than half the line-up this week is britrap and related music - 2019 has really been the year for it. Meanwhile Post Malone seems to have abandoned US-rap for the moment, dropping in at number 11 with a soft rock song instead.

In other genres, Rita Ora fronts Jonas Blue's dance ditty as it reaches a new high position, and chart behemoth Lewis Capaldi flies the flag for hoary balladeering.

Debuts: None

Aitch - Taste (Make It Shake)

Up 3 to number 3

Ed Sheeran ft. Stormzy - Take Me Back To London

Second week at number 1

PRESENTERS: Paul Whitehouse and Bob Mortimer

Top of the Pops, 5th September 2019

It must be Q4: Taylor Swift smashes into the chart with three tracks from her new album, the biggest of which she performs in person. King Ed Sheeran also takes a salmon-like leap up to the top spot.

New faces this week are Sam Feldt (well, newish) and Dermot Kennedy, while Lizzo follows up her debut a fortnight ago by performing two songs this week.

Debuts: Rani, Dermot Kennedy

Sam Feldt ft. Rani - Post Malone

Top of the Pops, 29th August 2019

It's a showcase of mostly long-running hits this week, none more so than AJ Tracey, who changes things up by performing the remix this time round. New material comes from Tracey's samplee Jorja Smith, who brings along Burna Boy to perform our highest new entry. And Shawn Mendes is back to give us the standard version of his duet with Camila Cabello.

Debuts: None

Sixth week at number 1

PRESENTER: JB Gill

Top of the Pops, 22nd August 2019

Another week, another peak for Dominic Fike, though it's anyone's guess whether he can climb the last two places needed for a truly historic chart ascent. Also still doing well are Sam Smith, who is also this week's contestant on Sing With Camila, Mist, and the bulletproof Lewis Capaldi.

She's been killing it all year under the radar, but this is actually the first week that Lizzo's had the chart power to get on Top of the Pops. She's here and as ebullient as you'd expect.

Debuts: Lizzo

Dominic Fike - 3 Nights

PRESENTER: Kimberley Walsh

Top of the Pops, 15th August 2019

She hasn't been away all that long, but it's nice to see Ariana Grande hasn't lost her ability to materialise in the upper reaches of the chart at will. King Ed Sheeran, alongside the mighty Stormzy, is also now making inroads with yet another of his wildly popular duets.

In other news, we get a couple of round-ups of some lower-down hits thanks to three-song medleys from Drake and new friend of the show Aitch. And with Shawn Mendes unavailable, it falls to Stormzy to serenade Camila Cabello in the top position.

Debuts: Social House

Top of the Pops, 8th August 2019

There are a few songs around that have just kept building and building. Here's AJ Tracey, now up to number 4 after 22 weeks on the chart, and Dominic Fike makes the top ten for the first time after 13 weeks. Lower down, Ellie Goulding and Juice Wrld have finally climbed high enough to get their TOTP invitation too.

We've also got dance from Joel Corry, rap from Dave and newcomer Lil Tecca, and the sultry Canadio-Latin number 1 from Shawn and Camila.

Top of the Pops, 1st August 2019

Camila Cabello (plus Shawn Mendes) skips back up to number 1, making it five weeks in a row on the show for the Americo-Cuban chanteuse. Also returning are Kygo (with Kelli-Leigh doing the Whitney bit again), Katy Perry, Stormzy and the long-running Freya Ridings.

New material comes from Lil Nas X, dance DJs featuring Rita Ora, and the big new entry from Sam Smith. Ed Sheeran takes a week off for once.

Top of the Pops, 25th July 2019

As the summer of britrap rolls on, this time it's Dave and Young T and Bugsey who are heading back up the charts, alongside a new entry from Krept and Konan. It's great that all these MCs are happy to support the show, rubbing shoulders with (and often outcharting) the likes of Camila Cabello and Justin Bieber, who guests with Billie Eilish this week.

One week off the top was enough for King Ed Sheeran, though, so now he's back at the top with the next song in the queue, the fairly lovely Beautiful People, alongside fellow friend of the show Khalid.

Debuts: None

Top of the Pops, 18th July 2019

Lots of changes on the chart here. King Ed is finally deposed from number 1 by our new king and queen, Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello. There's a trio of strong new entries from Mist, Post Malone and D-Block Europe, and longtime climbers from Kygo, Freya Ridings, Miley Cyrus and especially AJ Tracey are all rewarded with new chart peaks. Tracey welcomes his sampled vocalist Jorja Smith onto the show to sing live in celebration, while Kygo gets leading soundalike singer Kelli-Leigh to pay tribute to Whitney.

Top of the Pops, 11th July 2019

There's a lot of polite shuffling about in the chart this week, which gives us the opportunity to showcase a few hits that have been bubbling under for a while: Dominic Fike, Camila Cabello and Martin Garrix are the beneficiaries.

The Glastonbury effect has been pretty muted this year but the Killers are back in the chart. The summer of britrap continues with an entry from Young T and Bugsey, plus last week's debutant Aitch making it two weeks on TOTP in a row, and the biggest chart movement comes from King Ed Sheeran, whose Beautiful People (aided by friend of the show Khalid) joins I Don't Care (this week co-performed by Lewis Capaldi) in the top five.

PRESENTER: Heidi Range

Top of the Pops, 4th July 2019

It might be American Independence Day but here on TOTP it's possibly the biggest week ever for UK rap. There are chart entries for Jay1 and Bugzy Malone, a longtime chart climber from AJ Tracey, and another super-strong new hit from the man of the moment Stormzy.

On the sung side of things, Becky Hill has a double bill and Mabel continues her impressive 2019, and the US flag is flown (alongside the Cuban and Canadian ones) by Camila Cabello. Ed is still at number 1 and he flies in three American collaborators this week.

Debuts: Aitch

Once again Top of the Pops brings you some of the biggest names in music. Taylor Swift opens the show with her none-more-prim new single, and Drake performs three times: on his own song, alongside the dashing Chris Brown, and filling in for Justin Bieber alongside King Ed Sheeran.

Top of the Pops, 20th June 2019

That's five weeks at the top now for Ed Sheeran, and this week he gives us another exclusive performance with good ol' Brendon Urie in the Bieber role; Urie is here to perform his half of the resurgent Taylor Swift track.

Britrap continues to make a strong chart showing as well. This week it's Mostack with two chart climbers, and he brings the usual gaggle of collaborators with him. And we have some interesting new entries from Mabel and Liam Gallagher.

Top of the Pops, 13th June 2019

It's a most peculiar chart this week: a completely static top twelve, then several impressive new entries, and some nice climbers all together after that. The biggest beneficiary is of course King Ed Sheeran; this week he invites friend of the show Jess Glynne to fill in for Bieber in a nice exclusive.

We're also delighted to welcome back Katy Perry, and there's a nice britrap contingent as well as the latest relationship wreckage anthem from Lewis Capaldi.

Not content with a third week at number 1, King Ed Sheeran also has the highest new entry, so he brings along Chance The Rapper and PnB Rock, the other rapper, to perform it. Meanwhile Mark Ronson and Lykke Li finally break into the top 30 and 5 Seconds Of Summer crash the party once more.

Meduza and Kygo (with Rita Ora of course) are becoming regulars here, so they both give us slightly different exclusive versions of their evergreen hits.

Top of the Pops, 30th May 2019

It's Album Sampler Week on TOTP: Digga D and to a greater extent Tyler The Creator are smashing up the chart with their new releases, so both are invited on to give us a flavour of what they're offering. Chart behemoth Lewis Capaldi has three chart climbers this week too.

We also have a welcome resurfacing of the Calvin Harris/Rag 'N' Bone Man effort from the start of the year, some nice britrap from Dave and Hardy Caprio, and friend of the show Ellie Goulding.

PRESENTERS: The Hairy Bikers

Top of the Pops, 23rd May 2019

A week of reduced chart activity means that several long-running hits get another crack of the whip. Madison Beer is here without her DJ support to give us a candlelight version of All Day And Night, while Kygo, Jonas Blue and Meduza also represent the EDM contingent.

The big news, though, is the return of King Ed Sheeran. He and Justin Bieber doing impressions of each other are straight in at the top.

Top of the Pops, 9th May 2019

Two earth-shaking entries rock the top five: Taylor Swift returning alongside Brendon Urie, and the mighty Stormzy knocking Lil Nas X off the chart pinnacle.

There's also Rita Ora featuring on a Kygo track, friend of the show Zara Larsson, and two and a half minutes of birdsong from the RSPB, so that's enjoyable.

Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus are still at the top and in the studio once again, giving ol' Billy the chance for a cheeky cameo on the Wiley track as well. Ava Max brings us both of her hits so far, and there are chartbreakers from Lil Dicky and, yet again, Jonas Blue. No idea what that guy's appeal is but at least he gives a lot of guest singers their moment in the spotlight.

Top of the Pops, 25th April 2019

Who would have bet seven weeks ago that the track to depose Lewis Capaldi from number 1 would be performed by Billy Ray Cyrus? But that's what's happened, and the man himself is here alongside Little Nas X.

Elsewhere there's a debut from Alec Benjamin, more K-pop representation from BTS, and Aloe Blacc with a heartfelt tribute to the late Avicii.

Top of the Pops, 18th April 2019

Lewis Capaldi reaches a fairly elite seven weeks at the top of the chart, so he appears once again, this time with a two-song medley. As does friend of the show Khalid, the surprisingly reliable hitmaker also doing double duty.

Ava Max is finally invited to perform the follow-up to her surprise chart topper from January, and we also have an international flavour thanks to debutantes Blackpink and the Jax Jones/Martin Solveig Europa project.

There's a hugely impressive new entry from bright young thing Billie Eilish this week, which is only kept off number 1 by the Lewis Capaldi chart juggernaut. Westlife continue their robust 2019 with a new hit, and also join Panic At The Disco on backing vox for an exclusive version of High Hopes.

Further new material comes from Meduza, Lil Nas X, Jay1 and friend of the show George Ezra; Pretty Shining People has been on the chart for some time, but it only makes the TOTP cut this week.

Top of the Pops, 4th April 2019

It's mostly a week of consolidation on the chart, so there's room on the show for long-running hits from NSG, Pink, Troye Sivan and Ariana Grande, plus Wiley's hugely enjoyable all-star collab.

New material comes from Steel Banglez and two of the MCs of the moment, while Lewis Capaldi is looking seriously immovable up at the top there.

Singersongwritermania continues to grip the UK: Tom Walker charges to a new chart peak, Lewis Capaldi still has the best seller, and George Ezra has now been on the chart for an entire year with Shotgun.

But other genres are well-represented: RnB from Khalid, fun pop from the Jonas Brothers, pop masquerading as indie masquerading as dance from Marshmello and Chvrches, and rap from friend of the show A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie.

The man of the moment is Dave, who has three new entries in the top 11 and performs all of them in a six minute rap party. Also bringing the posse is Wiley, who has Sean Paul, Idris Elba and Stefflon Don all present for the remix of Boasty.

Lewis Capaldi shows no sign of leaving the number 1 spot, and also looking very long-lived are Panic At The Disco, still in the top 40 after well over six months.

Third week at number 1

PRESENTER: JB Gill

Top of the Pops, 14th March 2019

It's another great week for heartfelt singer-songwriters: Tom Walker is able to perform a two-song medley of chart climbers, and Lewis Capaldi not only makes it two weeks at the top but also sees most of his other songs climb the chart in the wake of Someone You Loved. And do the Jonas Brothers count? They have the highest new entry.

In other news, friends of the show Little Mix at last manage to get on to perform Think About Us after six weeks climbing the chart, and their rent-a-rapper Ty Dolla $ign has another hit to perform as well. Mabel's chart run shows no sign of flagging - wonder if she'll make number 1 at some point? And would you believe Chip is making his TOTP debut, after at least one name change and ten years of being one of Britain's worst rappers.

Debuts: Jonas Brothers (as a duo), Kehlani, Roddy Ricch, Chip

Top of the Pops, 7th March 2019

Not many would have predicted it last year, but Lewis Capaldi is the man to break Ariana Grande's grip on the top: Someone You Loved completes its slow build with a two-place final jump.

Elsewhere we've got a smash new entry from the evergreen Pink, and our persistence is rewarded as we lure Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper back to reprise their impressively long-running Hollywood hit.

Westlife again? The boys are going all out this year, now with a third TOTP appearance. Also doing well are AJ Tracey, who has several chart hits this week and performs two of them, and friend of the show Khalid, who has another strong showing with Talk.

The biggest names, though, must be Drake, guesting on the Meek Mill long-runner, Dua Lipa, and especially Ariana Grande who replaces herself at the top with her latest musings.

The big hitters have come out in earnest for 2019, starting with huge new entries from Calvin Harris and Rag 'N' Bone Man, and Sam Smith and Normani. But also somehow Westlife, and friend of the show The Weeknd alongside newcomer Gesaffelstein.

In other news, the Jax Jones/Years and Years collab makes the top ten after having its initial climb disrupted by Christmas, and Miley Cyrus and Ronson inch into second position - will they ever make the top?

We're over a week into January but the chart is still in retrospective mode, a clearout of Christmas hits making way for some of 2018's biggest tracks to climb back up the chart. There is some fresh material, though: Ariana Grande and Post Malone both have lower-charting companions to their bigger hits, and Jax Jones and kiddie deities Pinkfong both take slow-burning hits to new chart peaks.

The biggest story, though, is Ava Max, who capped off a long chart climb with a jump to number 1 just after Christmas and isn't ready to give up the top spot just yet.

Fantasy Top of the Pops 2018 round-up

A very happy new year, everybody!

I'll keep this intro brief because I'm actually writing it in late 2019, having fallen somewhat off the fantasy TOTP pace. Let's hope we're back up to date in time for 2020.

But that aside, let's run down the most featured artistes for 2018.

In tenth place with ten appearances is Post Malone. Postie is becoming a bit of a chart phenomenon and his hits tend to be very persistent. He'd be ranked higher if he wasn't US-based and so often unable to make it to the TOTP studio.

In joint seventh place with eleven appearances is Cardi B. The highest ranked newcomer, Cardi had features on hits by Maroon 5, Bruno Mars, DJ Snake and Rita Ora, plus one of her own, and scores higher than any of her collaborators.

Also in joint seventh place with eleven appearances is Anne-Marie. This is the consistent hitmaker's best TOTP year to date, seeing hits in her own right as well as collaborations with James Arthur and a couple of DJs.

And also in joint seventh place with eleven appearances is Ariana Grande. Any Grande release seems destined to zoom to the top, and she finished the year strongly with a long stretch at number 1, only deposed at the last moment by the sausage roll thing.

In sixth place with twelve appearances is Jess Glynne. After a silent 2017, Glynne came back stronger than ever with several high-charting anthems and a number 1 collaboration with Rudimental.

In joint third place with thirteen appearances is Khalid. Perhaps a surprise inclusion here, Khalid is another performer whose hits stick around longer than most. He had a hit of his own, a duet with Normani and the number 1 collaboration with Benny Blanco, all featured multiple times.

Also in joint third place with thirteen appearances is George Ezra. No stranger to the TOTP studio, George had several hits, all on his own, notably the number 1 summer anthem Shotgun.

And also in joint third place with thirteen appearances is Calvin Harris. Of course Calvin has a bulletproof chart pedigree and would have had even more appearances if he wasn't often busy DJing in Vegas of wherever, leaving his featured vocalists to perform without him.

In joint first place with sixteen appearances is Dua Lipa. Yes, we have a joint number 1 here and half of the duo is Dua. Significantly helped by her Calvin Harris collaboration being the biggest number 1 of the year, she was all over the show in the first three quarters of the year before taking a break in Q4. If you add 2017 and 2018, she scores higher than any other artist.

And our other co-number 1, also with sixteen appearances, is Drake. Even though his last appearance was in August, Drake managed to rack up 16 appearances by zooming to the top of the chart with almost everything he released, particularly the nine-week number 1 God's Plan.

And now let's look at the all-time Fantasy TOTP top appearers:

1 Ed Sheeran (60)
2 Little Mix (47)
3 Clean Bandit (39)
4 Calvin Harris (38)
5 Drake (36)
6 Dua Lipa (35)
= Ariana Grande (35)
8 Jess Glynne (33)
9 Sam Smith (32)
10 Rita Ora (30)

Still no challengers to King Ed, but Little Mix and Clean Bandit have closed the gap slightly. New arrivals to watch include Anne-Marie and Camila Cabello, and One Direction cling on for another year despite having split up. Of course if you added up all their solo figures the total would be a lot higher.
