Sam Fender and Olivia Dean’s banger just won’t let up! Double digits: unlocked! Rein Me In’s streak continues, earning a tenth non-consecutive week at Number 1.
In doing so, it becomes the joint longest-running UK Number 1 by a male/female duo, matching the record set by Rihanna and Jay-Z’s Umbrella in 2007. It’s a notable moment for Olivia Dean in particular, as no other British female artist in Official Chart history has spent more weeks at Number 1 with a song than Olivia now has with Rein Me In. Congratulations Olivia!
