Since July 2014 it has also incorporated streaming data, and from 10 July 2015 has been based on a Friday to Thursday week. As of 8 May 2025, 1437 singles have reached number one. The chart was founded in 1952 by Percy Dickins of ''[[New Musical Express]]'' (''NME''), who telephoned 20 record stores to ask what their top 10 highest-selling singles were. Dickins aggregated the results into a top 12 [[hit parade]], which was topped by "[[Here in My Heart]]" by [[Al Martino]]. ''NME''{{'}}s chart was published each week in its eponymous magazine. The sources, in accordance with the official canon of the [[Official Charts Company]], are the ''[[New Musical Express]]'' chart from 1952 to 1960; the ''[[Record Retailer]]'' chart from 1960 to 1969; and the Official UK Singles Chart from 1969 onwards. ~~==1953==~~ [[Jo Stafford]] - ''You belong to me'' :[[January 16]] for 1 week [[Kay Starr]] - ''Comes a-long a-love'' :[[January 23]] for 1 week [[Eddie Fisher]] - ''Outside of heaven'' :[[January 30]] for 1 week [[Perry Como]] - ''Don't let the stars get in your eyes'' :[[February 6]] for 5 weeks [[Guy Mitchell]] - ''She wears red feathers'' :[[March 13]] for 4 weeks [[The Stargazers]] - ''Broken wings'' :[[April 10]] for 1 week [[Lita Roza]] - ''(How much is) That doogie in the window'' :[[April 17]] for 1 week [[Frankie Laine]] - ''I believe'' :[[April 24]] for 9 weeks [[Eddie Fisher]] feat.

The act that has achieved the most number ones is American entertainer [[Elvis Presley]], who has topped the chart 21 times (including 3 re-releases of songs that had previously been number ones) – Presley's second number one, "[[Jailhouse Rock (song)\|Jailhouse Rock]]", was the first single ever to debut at the top of the chart.<ref>{{cite journal\|date=29 January 2005\|title=Return of the king\|journal=[[Music Week]]\|issue=29.01.05\|publisher=[[CMP Media\|CMP]]\|___location=[[London]]\|issn=0265-1548\|oclc=60620772\|url=http://business.highbeam.com/411456/article-1G1-128204894/return-king\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140201175813/http://business.highbeam.com/411456/article-1G1-128204894/return-king\|url-status=dead\|archive-date=1 February 2014\|access-date=5 April 2012}}</ref> The most successful band (and equal with Elvis based on unique songs) are [[The Beatles]], who have achieved 18 number ones. The Beatles' first chart-topper, "[[From Me to You]]", reached number one in May 1963, and their last in November 2023 – the longest span of number ones for any artist. * [[Eddie Calvert]] - ''Oh mein Papa'' :[[January 8]] for 9 weeks [[The Stargazers]] - ''I see the moon'' :[[March 12]] for 5 weeks [[Doris Day]] - ''Secret love'' :[[April 16]] for 1 week [[The Stargazers]] - ''I see the moon'' :[[April 23]] for 1 week [[Johnnie Ray]] - ''Such a night'' :[[April 30]] for 1 week [[Doris Day]] - ''Secret love'' :[[May 7]] for 8 weeks [[David Whitfield]] with [[Mantovani]] - ''Cara mia'' :[[July 2]] for 10 weeks [[Kitty Kallen]] - ''Little things mean a lot'' :[[September 10]] for 1 week [[Frank Sinatra]] - ''Three coins in the fountain'' :[[September 17]] for 3 weeks [[Don Cornell]] - ''Hold my hand'' :[[October 8]] for 4 weeks [[Vera Lynn]] - ''My son my son'' :[[November 5]] for 2 weeks [[Don Cornell]] - ''Hold my hand'' :[[November 19]] for 1 week [[Rosemary Clooney]] - ''This ole house'' :[[November 26]] for 1 week [[Winifred Atwell]] - ''Let's have another party'' :[[December 3]] for 5 weeks In the 1970s, the required number of sales needed to top the chart was roughly 150,000.<ref>{{Cite book\|last1=Martland\|first1=Peter\|editor1-first=Ruth\|editor1-last=Edge\|title=Since records began: EMI, the first 100 years\|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=yD8UAQAAIAAJ\|edition=illustrated\|year=1997\|publisher=[[Batsford Books\|Batsford]]\|___location=[[London]]\|isbn=9780713462074\|oclc=37740500\|page=253}}</ref> During 1992, when few releases were reaching number one, sales of CD singles were low: songs needed to sell only 60–70,000 each week to remain at the top.<ref name=Masterton/> In 2000, when turnover of number ones was high, tracks could often sell between 100,000 and 200,000 copies in a single week.<ref name=Masterton/> UK chart commentator [[James Masterton]] remarked in 2003: "When record sales are high, public interest in a song expires very quickly and this creates a need for ever more new product to take its place."<ref name=Masterton>{{cite web\|url=http://www.dotmusic.com/charts/commentary/content.asp\|title=dotmusic.com – Chart Commentary\|first=James\|last=Masterton\|author-link=James Masterton\|date=31 March 2003\|publisher=[[dotmusic]]\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030401094446/http://www.dotmusic.com/charts/commentary/content.asp\|archive-date=1 April 2003\|url-status=dead\|access-date=5 April 2012}}</ref> Sales figures improved in 2008 and continued into the early 2010s, peaking in 2013, before declining over the next few years as [[audio streaming]] became popular.
