Every Song That Topped the U.K. Chart for 8 or More Weeks, But Didn’t Make the Top 10 on the Hot 100
"Rein Me In” by Sam Fender and Olivia Dean is the first single to log 21 weeks at No. 1 in the U.K. It hasn't even made the top 40 on the Hot 100.
Music fans in the U.S. and the U.K. have had differing reactions to certain songs topping the charts. Six songs have managed to reach No. 1 or more weeks at No. 1 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the Official Singles Chart in the U.K. These include Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" and Sam Fender and Olivia Dean's "Rein Me In."
However, not all songs that dominate the U.K. chart make it to the top 10 on the Hot 100. Sam Fender's "Rein Me In" is currently in its 21st week at No. 1 on the U.K. chart but has only reached No. 73 on the Hot 100, dropping from its peak of No. 64. This is due to the success of other Dean hits, "Man I Need" and "So Easy (to Fall in Love)," which have maintained high positions on the U.K. chart.
