Olivia Rodrigo’s “Vampire” returns to two U.K. charts this week, logging its fiftieth week on the … More
Olivia Rodrigo has been sending mixed signals to her massive fan base lately when it comes to new music. In March, she shared a photo montage featuring musical instruments like keyboards and an electric guitar, hinting that she was hard at work on her next chapter. But not long afterward, in April, she posted a carousel of images from her vacation in Marrakesh, Morocco, captioning it simply: “everywhere. but that damn studio.” That message could mean she’s taking a break from creating— or that she’s spent so much time in the studio recently, she’s now happy to escape it.
As fans continue to wait for what might be coming next from the Grammy winner, many in the United Kingdom are revisiting one of her biggest hits. They’re not just streaming it, either, but buying the cut once more. Rodrigo scores a commercial win – again – with “Vampire,” a tune that listeners in that country just can’t seem to get enough of.
Olivia Rodrigo’s “Vampire” Flies Again
This week, “Vampire” reappears on two purchase-focused rankings in the U.K. It returns at No. 55 on the Official Singles Sales chart, which highlights the bestselling tunes across all genres and formats, whether digital storefronts or physical offerings. The same cut also shows up on the Official Singles Downloads tally, where it lands at No. 79.
Olivia Rodrigo’s “Vampire” Approaches a Full Year
“Vampire” has previously topped the Official Singles Sales chart, but narrowly missed ruling the downloads-only tally. Instead, it peaked in third place. The cut has now logged 46 frames on the Official Singles Downloads roster and 50 stays — just shy of a full year, a milestone it will likely reach at some point in 2025 — on the Official Singles Sales list.
Olivia Rodrigo’s Longest-Charting U.K. Hit
“Vampire” stands as Rodrigo’s longest-charting win on both of these U.K. tallies, and it continues to further its lead over her previous singles every time it returns. Her next-longest-running favorites on the lists are “Good 4 U” and “Driver’s License,” both of which have racked up more than 30 weeks on the two rankings.
