Justin Bieber returns to No.1 in the UK with 'What Do You Mean'

Canadian sensation Justin Bieber is fighting to reclaim the top spot on this week’s Official Singles Chart.

The star’s latest track 'What Do You Mean' is back at No.1 on today’s Official Chart Update after being dethroned by Sigala’s 'Easy Love' last week. However, the race is very close, with Justin leading by just over 300 combined sales at the halfway stage.

Justin’s return to the top with 'What Do You Mean' a fortnight ago marked a triumphant comeback for the singer. Not only did it set a new record for the highest first-week streams for a single at 3.2 million plays, it also became his fastest selling single in the UK with a combined opening week sales total of 84,000.

While 'Easy Love' slips to second place, the rest of the Top 5 remains largely unmoved. Calvin Harris & Disciples look set to score a seventh week in the Top 5 with 'How Deep Is Your Love', currently at No.3, Jess Glynne’s 'Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself' is at No.4, and The Weeknd holds firm at 5 with 'Can’t Feel My Face'.

Just outside the Top 10, Birdy’s 'Wings' continues to surge up the tally, leaping 18 spots to No.11 on today’s Update. The track originally entered the Top 40 at No.16 back in 2013 and has reappeared this year thanks to its use in a TV advert for Lloyds Bank, where it has since reached a new peak of No.8.

After a show stopping set at Bestival last weekend, British MC Stormzy could be looking at his first Top 40 hit this Friday with 'WickedSkengMan 4', which debuts at No.14.

Further down the chart, electronic trio Nero land at 18 with 'Two Minds', Taylor Swift’s 'Wildest Dreams' jumps seven places to No.38 and Birdy & Rhodes start at 39 with their new duet 'Let It All Go'.
