CHART NEWS ‘All About That Bass’, which is spending its fourth week running in the top spot, ties with Clean Bandit’s ‘Rather Be’ as the longest number one of the year. Ed Sheeran takes the second best-selling single of the week with ‘Thinking Out Loud’, which now also has over 1.2 million streams

I
t’s been a lengthy eight-year wait, but our favourite No Doubt frontwoman/yodeller has finally returned with her first solo release since her 2006 album The Sweet Escape. Gwen’s taken the shrewd move of calling in Benny Blanco, Ryan Tedder and Noel Zancanella to come back with a track that instantly fills the void of her absence.

K
iesza’s edging ever closer to the release date of her anticipated debut album Sound of a Woman. In the meantime the singer has treated us to a brand new cut from the record. ‘The Love’ feels like a long-lost 90’s house anthem, with the force of Kiesza’s opening vocal twisting on its heel to dive into a signature dance chorus.

Meghan Trainor: ‘Lips Are Moving’ (TBC)
A
fter the colossal success of her Beyoncé and Adele-shunned hit ‘All About That Bass’ Meghan Trainor is offering us the sequel in the form of ‘Lips Are Moving’. ‘I know you lie because your lips are moving/ Tell me do you think I’m dumb?” the 20-year-old scorns, reminding potential romancers it’s a good idea not to find yourself in her bad books.
‘Bump and Grind 2014’ by Waze & Odyssey debuts at number three, while Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj’s ‘Bang Bang’ is at number four.
Taylor Swift: ‘Welcome To New York’ (from 1989, released October 27)

Taylor Swift completes this week’s top five, with ‘Shake It Off ’. Fuse ODG’s ‘Tina’ debuts at number nine, as Sam Smith climbs two places to number ten with ‘I’m Not the Only One’. Smith’s former number one
‘Stay with Me’ also stays in the chart at 15.
I wanted to start the album with this song because New York has been an important landscape and location for the story of my life in the last couple of years,” Taylor Swift said of the most recent track to emerge from 1989. We don’t have long to wait to see if she can deliver the promise of her lyrics - a “sound we’ve never heard before”.
