- Source: List of artists who have spent the most weeks on the UK music charts
This is a list of artists who have spent more than 1000 weeks in the top 75 UK Singles Chart and UK Albums Chart combined. Only 39 artists have achieved this milestone. It uses the methodology used to compile a top 500 list in the British Hit Singles & Albums books until 2005. Any album or single must be credited to the named artist and must appear in the top 75 singles or albums chart as recorded by the Official Charts Company.
Ed Sheeran has the most weeks on the singles charts with 1508 weeks. Cliff Richard, Elvis Presley, Drake and Rihanna are the only other artists to achieve over 1000 weeks in the singles chart. Ed Sheeran has had the most weeks in the singles chart since 2000.
Queen have the most weeks in the album chart followed by seventeen other artists with more than 1000 weeks, Taylor Swift being the latest to pass this threshold. David Bowie passed the 1000-week mark following his death in January 2016, when 16 of his albums entered or re-entered the top 75. ABBA's 'Gold' became the first album to reach 1000 weeks on the top 100 UK albums chart in July 2021. Robbie Williams is the only artist to feature on the list twice: as a solo artist and with Take That.
Figures are as of chart week 25-31 October 2024.
