Top of the Pops, 26th January 2023

It's a weird top ten this week, with almost every song standing still, which means that some songs from lower down the top 30 get their chance to shine: step forward JVKE, Tiesto and Joel Corry, plus new hits from Fredo, Mimi Webb and Libianca.

Miley Cyrus provides some action at the top of the chart by splatting in at number 1, and we've got a very special performance as David Guetta pays homage to his lifelong inspiration Eiffel 65.

The show is bristling with exclusives and one-off performances this week. No less names than Stormzy and Taylor Swift (with Lana Del Rey along for the ride) both perform two-track showcases of their recent albums, while Aitch and Anne-Marie stick around after doing their own song to join David Guetta and breathe new life into his Blue reimagining, UK style.

To add to that, there are chartbreakers from Bugzy Malone and Tiesto, and warm welcomes back for the tracks of the moment from Oliver Tree and Dermot Kennedy.

It's a week for patient climbers: Doja Cat, Burna Boy and Bru-C all reach new chart peaks, while LF System complete a very impressive journey to the top spot. The highest new entry isn't even in the top 40, but credit to Tiesto and Charli XCX regardless and they feature here in an energetic performance.

The show couldn't be much more varied this week: we've got dance-pop, pop-pop, US rap, UK rap, US rock, UK rock, and a show tune to cap it all off. Even Liam Gallagher pops up for the first time in a year or so.

Shades of the Frozen phenomenon as We Need To Talk About Bruno leaps to the top of the chart (and other songs from Encanto are making headway lower down as well). In other chart news, we welcome debutant Hazey to the top 40. From further up the Mersey, Arrdee returns and brings the original performers of Flowers along for an exclusive performance.

A new Drake album (or content-dump) is released, shaking up the chart as usual; he performs two of the tracks here as a nice sampler. There are also big entries from Justin Bieber, our own AJ Tracey, and the super-duo Silk Sonic.

The Tiesto track has been climbing relentlessly for several weeks now, so it's good to invite him back for a reprise. Ella and Tom are also back again with their cheeky ditty, and we say helloooooo to the enigmatic Masked Wolf.

Big chart moves from Fredo this week, with the Dave feature spearheading a trio of new entries. We've also got fun returns from Travis Scott and Doja Cat, and Glass Animals are here with their song that's been bubbling under for a few weeks.

Pow! Olivia Rodrigo drops in right at the top of the charts. Perhaps 2021 will be the Year of Rodrigo?

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.

Top of the Pops, 19th July 2018

Chart history is made, as Three Lions leaps 23 places to hit the very top thanks to World Cup fever and some wholly acceptable performances from the brave England lads. Baddiel and Skinner, and at least some of the Lightning Seeds, come into the study to join the celebration.

It's almost a shame, since other things that would be big news - a new anthem from Drake, Green Day back in for some reason - are relegated to the footnotes. Never mind though - let's see how long the nation will stay football crazy.

Debuts: None

M-22 ft. Medina - First Time

Up 3 to number 22

He's finally done it: song of the summer Shotgun climbs one last place and takes George Ezra to the top. And in other friends of the show news, Little Mix are back.

Elsewhere we have a recurrence of sometime TOTP presenter Dappy's slow burning hit, a latino double-header from J Balvin, and new dancey stuff from Tiesto (though sans Post Malone) and M-22.

Top of the Pops, 17th March 2016

Massive amounts of dance music this week, from Tiesto and Oliver Heldens, to DNCE, to Major Lazer (although they change things up with an acoustic performance) to show-opener David Guetta. With the ever-reclusive Sia not present, Selena Gomez ably fills in on Bang My Head in a nice TOTP exclusive before treating us to her own track.

Recurring featurees G-Eazy and (of course) Lukas Graham are back, and there's a debut for Alan Walker.

Football looms large here. Mr Worldwide Pitbull jets in with his two co-vocalists in tow to bring us the official World Cup song, while Three Lions climbs high enough for us to show an original performance from those hopeful days in '96. More surprisingly, the late Rik Mayall's Noble England has entered the top ten, so is played over a thoughtful montage.

But it's Ella Henderson who lifts the trophy this week and makes her Top of the Pops debut. Raleigh Ritchie and Skepta also appear for the first time, and the line-up is completed by a slow burner from Foxes and Zedd.

Tiesto ft. Matthew Koma - Naked

It's Pharrell's week once again. Not only is the impish hat-donner now on a near-unprecedented third run at number one with a song newly anointed as a million-seller, he's also the ten-gallon musical brain behind Paloma Faith's new top ten entry; he duly larks around in the background of Paloma's performance before inviting her to join his own. New to TOTP this week are John Legend and American Authors, and international diva Beyonce drops by (with another sparkly dress) as her Brits-performed track rises another place.

Tiësto - Red Lights
