U.K. MIDWEEKS: LIAM TO LAND #1?
8/14/23

Liam Gallagher is heading for his fifth solo U.K. Official Albums #1 with Knebworth 22 (Warner Records). Over on singles, Dua Lipa looks to end Dave and Central Cee’s 10-week run at #1.

Knebworth 22 is a live recording of Gallagher’s sold-out shows across two dates to crowds of 170k last year.

The Hives The Death of Randy Fitzsimmons (Disques Hives) is not far behind at #2 while Jungle’s Volcano (Caiola) is set for #3.

Fifty years after its recording, an anniversary edition of David Bowie’s Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars: Motion Picture Soundtrack (Parlophone) could see it earn a new peak at #4.

Following the announcement of the forthcoming 1989 (Taylor’s Version), Taylor Swift’s original is set re-enter the Top 10 at #5.

Public Image Ltd could have their first Top 10 on Friday as End of the World (PiL Official) is #7; Unfinished Business (PG Records) from rapper Fredo is on track to debut at #11.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles midweek chart, Lipa’s “Dance the Night” (Warner Records) from the Barbie movie has finally overtaken long-running #1, “Sprinter” (Live Yours/Neighbourhood).

The latter, from Dave and Central Cee, has dropped dramatically to #12 today after 10 weeks at the top. Should the track hold onto its midweek peak by Friday, Lipa will claim her fourth U.K. #1.

Olivia Rodrigo’s “bad idea right?” (Geffen) is today’s highest new entry, starting at #4. Her “Vampire” is #3.

Calvin Harris & Sam Smith’s “Desire” (Columbia) could become the duo’s second Top 10 hit together, rising five places to #7. Becky Hill and Chase & Status’s “Disconnect” (Polydor)is also set to rise, up one to #8.

Anne-Marie & Shania Twain’s “Unhealthy” (Asylum) is once again set for a new peak, rising two to #16, and Chase & Status, Bou and Flowdan could enter the Top 20 with “Baddadan” (Universal) at #20.
