Sam Fender and Olivia Dean’s duet ‘Rein Me In’ has set a new record.
The song made pop history in Britain on Friday when it became the longest-running No. 1 single by spending 19 weeks at the top of the charts.
The song broke the 73-year-old record held by U.S. singer Frankie Laine, who spent 18 weeks at the top with I Believe in 1953, the Official Charts said.
Rein Me In entered the charts in June 2025 but only made it to the top spot eight months later. Since then, other songs have knocked the single out of top place on a handful of occasions, but each time it returned to the top.
“Completely lost for words, thank you so much to Olivia Dean and the fans for making this song the juggernaut that it is,” Fender told the Official Charts. “Can’t believe we broke the UK record.
