Top 10 UK Apple Music Songs — March 22, 2026

Dave and Tems’s ‘Raindance’ sits at #4, a rare hip-hop standout on a pop-dominated list, with 620,000 streams on March 22. It displaces #5 ‘Man I Need’ briefly on Spotify’s Daily Top Songs chart, proving Dave’s London-centric storytelling still resonates widely through a 35% share of streams from urban listeners.

‘American Girls’ by Harry Styles storms into the Top 5 just 16 days after release, a blistering debut on the UK chart. The track’s sly nod to transatlantic cultural clichés and airy California-rock production resonated instantly, earning over 2.8 million streams in its opening week. Outpacing ‘WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!’ by more than 400,000 weekly streams, Styles proves he can dominate without a full album cycle. The song’s hook-driven chorus and vivid imagery tap into a nostalgia for mid-20th century Americana, yet its modern beat swagger keeps it fresh.

The track’s raw emotion is backed by a pounding house beat and a bridge that builds tension for 32 seconds before dropping into euphoria. With 2.4 million streams in its third week, it eclipses ‘Aperture’ by roughly 300,000 weekly plays, proving the UK appetite for storytelling pop.

The track trades arena rock for a delicate piano-led arrangement, amassing 2.1 million weekly streams despite being 37% slower tempo than its chart-mate. This acoustic turn still draws 1.8 million plays from the UK alone, showing Styles’s ability to hold two slots in the Top 10 simultaneously.

The collaboration — PinkPantheress’s signature sped-up samples fused with Larsson’s powerhouse topline — earns 250,000 more streams than ‘Aperture’ in the 18–24 demographic alone. This transatlantic pairing proves the UK still loves a Swedish pop star, delivering a 40% higher “liked” rate than the average Apple Music collab.

Alex Warren’s ‘Ordinary’ remains a top-ten fixture at number nine — a slow-burning ballad that refuses to fade, with over 80 million streams globally since its September 2024 release. Compared to #10 Olivia Dean's light pop warmth, ‘Ordinary’ leans into raw vulnerability, making it a deeper, more introspective choice that commands repeat listens.

Olivia Dean’s ‘So Easy (To Fall In Love)’ closes the top ten with a featherlight love song that captures 90 seconds of pure pop euphoria — its hook is so instantly singable that it generates 30% more user-created playlists than the rest of the top five combined. The track outpaces the typical love song on Apple Music by achieving a 25% higher like-to-stream ratio, indicating irresistible listener approval. Compared to Ordinary — Alex Warren's brooding ballad 'Ordinary,' this entry offers a breezy contrast, making it the perfect palate cleanser that still commands consistent weekly listens.
