Top of the Pops, 12th August 2021

It's a bit of a catch-up week this week, as we welcome back some of the biggest tracks of the last month or so. That includes Jonasu, Becky Hill, Kid Laroi and Bieber, and of course King Ed Sheeran. The Weeknd too, who has been in or around the top ten for absolutely ages.

There are two new chart breakers, though. We welcome back the soul of the 2020s Billie Eilish, and there's a debut appearance for the exciting Pinkpantheress.

Debuts: Pinkpantheress

Little Mix - Heartbreak Anthem

Up 2 to number 5

Billie Eilish - Happier Than Ever

Highest New Entry - In at number 6

The Weeknd - Save Your Tears

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.

Debuts: None

BTS - Permission To Dance

In at number 16

Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber - Stay

In at number 5

Dave ft Stormzy - Clash

Highest New Entry - In at number 3

Billie Eilish - NDA

In at number 23

Jonasu - Black Magic

Up 3 to number 11

From The Vault: Neil Diamond - Sweet Caroline

High Climber - Up 28 to number 20

Atomic Kitten - Southgate You're The One (Football's Coming Home Again)

In at number 14

Ed Sheeran - Bad Habits

Third week at number 1

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

Doja Cat ft the Weeknd - You Right

In at number 9

Maneskin - Beggin'

Up 3 to number 7

Aitch - Learning Curve

In at number 27

Jonasu - Black Magic

High Climber - Up 37 to number 30

Tyler the Creator ft YoungBoy Never Broke Again and Ty Dolla $ign - Wusyaname

In at number 25

Little Mix with Maneskin - Heartbreak Anthem

Up 1 to number 4

Ed Sheeran - Bad Habits

Straight in at number 1

PRESENTERS: Abz Breen and Richie Neville
