Top of the Pops, 29th July 2021

As the football songs exit the chart, most other tracks shuffle up a place or two, which means repeat appearances for Tom Grennan, Anne-Marie and Niall Horan, Arrdee, Tones & I, and bafflingly, Maneskin, who are still in the top ten with two different tracks, neither of which is their Eurovision winner.

New material comes from KSI and Lil Durk, plus the latest posthumous release from Pop Smoke, which Dua Lipa helps to propel a little higher than usual. Needless to say King Ed Sheeran still reigns, as just the seventh artist to hit number one this year.

Top of the Pops, 22nd July 2021

Things really are getting football crazy now. After the Lightning Seeds and Fat Les last week, footy fever now propels Atomic Kitten and Neil Diamond into the top 20. That makes up a quarter of an unusually fresh line-up, with only the Jonasu song and of course Ed Sheeran at number 1 having been featured already this year.

It's perhaps surprising that it's taken until July for Stormzy to make his first 2021 appearance. He's one of a trio of huge names who return to the show this week, alongside Justin Bieber and Billie Eilish. Arguably BTS as well.

Top of the Pops, 15th July 2021

Football fever grips the nation. We have to make do with another From The Vault clip of Three Lions, but Fat Les do reform and come into the studio to rouse everyone's spirits further. 

Off the field, there's a new chart peak for the current Jonas Brothers single, a new track involving Drake, dancefloor royalty Becky Hill, and a couple of the less well-known songs from Miss 2021, Olivia Rodrigo. King Ed Sheeran reigns at the top for a second week.

Top of the Pops, 8th July 2021

King Ed Sheeran is back, and his chart position could probably have been predicted: Olivia Rodrigo's seemingly immovable object finally meets the true irresistible force. Less predictable this year has been the runaway success of Maneskin, who are back with their third hit this week and also guest with friends of the show Little Mix for a rockin' heartbreak anthem.

Tones & I has been in the chart's lower reaches for a while, so it's good to be able to feature her current single. There's also a debut for Jonasu and a classy trio of new entries from Aitch, Tyler the Creator and Doja Cat.

Debuts: Jonasu

Tones & I - Fly Away

Up 9 to number 33
