George Michael scores a brand new No. 1 hit. Careless Whisper is back on the U.K. charts this week. The tune, which stands as one of Michael’s most famous, can be found on five different rankings at the moment, and it appears as high as a title can climb on several of them.
Michael launches “Careless Whisper” at No. 1 on two charts in the U.K. this frame. The song is new to the top spot on both the Official Physical Singles and Official Vinyl Singles lists, which track the bestselling releases on those respective types of formats in the country.
The pop-rocker has only managed to place a pair of tracks onto the Official Vinyl Singles chart, and both have risen to No. 1. In addition to “Careless Whisper,” his smash “Freedom” debuted on the vinyl-only ranking in 2015 and spent several turns in charge.
“Careless Whisper” is also new at No. 1 on the ranking of the most-purchased songs on any physical medium, with vinyl sales playing a huge role in almost any tune’s position on that roster. Michael has earned at least five leaders on that chart, along with and additional 15 top 10 hits.
