Sabrina Carpenter’s Hit Single ‘Espresso’ Skyrockets to the Top Spot!
Sabrina Carpenter’s latest single, “Espresso,” has taken the U.K. music scene by storm, skyrocketing to the number one spot on the Official U.K. Singles Chart in just its third week of release. The track, released through Island Records, has proven to be a massive hit, garnering a staggering 8.8 million streams and edging out Taylor Swift’s “Fortnight” to claim the coveted top position. This achievement marks Carpenter’s first number one single in the U.K., further solidifying her status as a rising star in the music industry.
“Espresso” is not only Carpenter’s first chart-topper but also her first top 10 hit in the U.K. The talented singer and actor has previously charted with songs like “Nonsense,” “Skin,” and “Feather,” but none have enjoyed the level of success that “Espresso” has achieved. With its infectious beats and captivating lyrics, it comes as no surprise that fans are flocking to stream this sensational track.
Meanwhile, Irish singer-songwriter Hozier’s “Too Sweet” has slipped to the third position on the chart, making way for Carpenter’s reign at the top. The podium is completed by rising star Shaboozey, whose hip-hop-country fusion track “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” has soared to number six, marking his first top 10 single in the U.K.
Not to be outdone, Taylor Swift continues her impressive streak on the U.K. charts with her latest single, “I Can Do It With A Broken Heart,” debuting at number eight. This marks Swift’s 29th top 10 hit in her illustrious career, further cementing her status as a chart-topping powerhouse. The track joins a string of successful singles from The Tortured Poets Department, including “Fortnight,” “The Tortured Poets Department,” and “Down Bad,” all of which have recently made waves on the U.K. charts.
Adding to the mix is Virginia-born singer and rapper Tommy Richman, whose viral hit “Million Dollar Baby” has made an impressive debut at number 31 on the Official U.K. Singles Chart. This marks Richman’s first entry on the chart, signaling the arrival of a promising new talent in the music industry.
Rounding out the top 40 are two timeless classics from the legendary Amy Winehouse, whose iconic songs “Valerie” and “Back to Black” have made a triumphant return to the charts. Fueled by the success of the Sam Taylor-Johnson biopic, these beloved tracks serve as a poignant reminder of Winehouse’s enduring legacy and musical influence.
With a diverse array of talent gracing the charts, the U.K. music scene continues to captivate audiences with its dynamic range of sounds and styles. From fresh newcomers like Sabrina Carpenter and Tommy Richman to seasoned veterans like Taylor Swift and Amy Winehouse, there is no shortage of musical talent making waves and leaving a lasting impact on fans around the world.
