“Eyes Closed” was Ed Sheeran’s 14th UK No.

It took a star of Ed Sheeran’s stature to knock Miley Cyrus’ ubiquitous “Flowers” off the top of the UK singles chart. “Eyes Closed”, a track that anticipates the singer-songwriter’s next album “-“, made it there and became the artist’s 14th “No. 1”. Flowers”, is now at number two.

Sheeran is now tied with Cliff Richard and Westlife for the third most number one singles. Ahead of them, the Beatles, 17, and Elvis Presley, 21. In other words, there’s no stopping Sheeran from holding the record in the not-too-distant future.”

Another achievement in the parade is also noteworthy. Jimin’s “Like Crazy” reached number eight. He became the first member of BTS to place a song in the UK Top 10 as a solo artist.

In the Top 40, we had two more newcomers: Paris Paloma’s “Labor” at #29 and the Flo Girls’ “Fly Girl (feat. Missy Elliott)” at #38. Finally, Booker’s “Hell ‘n’ Back” rose from No. 41 to No. 35.
