Benson Boone Bags First U.K. No. 1 With ‘Beautiful Things’


The Washington-born singer and songwriter’s hit has already led Billboard’s two Global charts, and now lifts 2-1 on the Official U.K. Singles Chart.

As Boone logs his first week at the U.K. chart zenith, he dethrones Beyonce ’s “Texas Hold ‘Em” (Columbia/Parkwood Ent) after a four-week reign – Bey’s longest stint at No. Also moving on up is Ariana Grande ’s Eternal Sunshine(Republic Records) release “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait For Your Love),” lifting 3-2 for a new peak position. “Going Home (Theme from Local Hero)” was the most-purchased song on wax during chart week, clocking over 15,200 pure sales, the OCC reports.
