Warranted. Jumping on already popular songs shouldnt count for your own #1s imo.

[Bey Admired]

She’s literally the reason it’s going to be number 1 though... that’s so ridiculous if true. 

[QueenBeyoncé]

They betta credit her! That’s BS!

The UK Charts are weird  

 

When Sam Smith released his duet with John Legend the duet version went #1 and the solo version was charting at #18 that same week.

If that's the case then the Perfect duet with Beyoncé should be #1 and the solo album version should chart separately 

That's because that particular remix was released through a completely different label.

[Lose My Breath]

The duet is way outdoing the original though

 

United Kingdom

iTunes:
1. Perfect Duet

11. Perfect

 

Spotify:
2. Perfect Duet

17. Perfect

Apple Music:
1. Perfect Duet

10. Perfect

 

YouTube:
1. Perfect

[Thor]

That's nonsense. 

 

They need to fix this ASAP.

[Serendipity]

Stop getting y'alls knickers in a twist, we don't even know it's real. Who can be bothered to update mid week notifications.

 

I'm confident it'll be rectified when the official chart comes out.

 

If not, then you lose it

I see what you're saying but the UK midweeks are actually pretty official. There is still a chance that the label will choose the change it mid week although from the sounds of it they're not going to because then the song would stop contributing towards the albums SPS.

[Erreur2 La Nature]

Congrats Ed for your #1 song 

[Comedor]

A saint. 

[Kiel D-01]

 It's already hugely popular her before the duet, so.

Its considered a remix...to which she shouldn't get credited.

 

Sam Smith had two versions because one was for charity.

It will go #1 because of the remix as it is way outperforming the original

[jose168]

its "outperforming" (the original will outstream) the original because it is a brand new ed sheeran track released this week. So basically a new release counting towards an already top 5 hit, it could have gone #1 with any artist on it because of ed sheerans power. Don't see why the feature would get credit here

 

[simon]

Indifferent towards the UK charts, but she better be credited for the US

Right - so either way if it is charted separately, the duet will still be #1 so whatisthetruth.gif?

[Black Umbrella]

I feel like they didn't credit her so that the two versions count as one on the chart.

 

And I wouldn't be surprised if Ed is doing it on purpose. He's trash.

The Britney remix did not help S&M reach a new peak in the UK.

UK doesn't count YT. And on Spotify the Remix is MUCH higher so check the rules before just talking with no reason.
