List_of_UK_top-ten_singles_in_2014
The UK Singles Chart is one of many music charts compiled by the Official Charts Company that calculates the best-selling singles of the week in the United Kingdom.[1] Since 2004 the chart has been based on the sales of both physical singles and digital downloads, with airplay figures excluded from the official chart.[2][3] From 6 July, streaming figures became incorporated into the singles chart which means that a song will count as a sale, if streamed 100 times.[4] This list shows singles that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart during 2014, as well as singles which peaked in 2013 but were in the top 10 in 2014. The entry date is when the single appeared in the top 10 for the first time (week ending, as published by the Official Charts Company, which is six days after the chart is announced).
One-hundred and fifty-five singles were in the top ten in 2014. Seven singles from 2013 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year. "Happy" by Pharrell Williams" (from the Despicable Me 2 soundtrack) and "Trumpets" by Jason Derulo were the singles from 2013 to reach their peak in 2014. Fifty-eight artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2014. Ariana Grande, Clean Bandit, George Ezra, Jess Glynne, Meghan Trainor and Shawn Mendes were among the many artists who achieved their first UK charting top 10 single in 2014.
The first number-one single of the year was "Happy", which spent four non-consecutive weeks on top of the chart. The song vacated number-one for a week on 11 January 2014, being replaced by "Timber" by Kesha and Pitbull before returning to the top spot. Overall, thirty-eight different singles peaked at number-one in 2014, with Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith (3) having the joint most singles hit that position (including artist's participation on the Band Aid 30 charity single).
Multiple entries
One-hundred and fifty-two singles charted in the top 10 in 2014, with one-hundred and forty-three singles reaching their peak this year.
Fifty-eight artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2014. Sam Smith secured the record for most top 10 hits in 2014 with five hit singles.
Chart debuts
Ninety-four artists achieved their first top 10 single in 2014, either as a lead or featured artist. This includes the charity group Band Aid 30 (made up of chart acts but charting together for the first time) and Gareth Malone's All Star Choir. Of these, ten went on to record another hit single that year: Ariana Grande, Ella Henderson, George Ezra, Gorgon City, Kiesza, Melissa Steel, Neon Jungle, Robin Schulz, Sam Martin and Tiësto. 5 Seconds of Summer and Clean Bandit achieved two more chart hits in 2014. Jess Glynne had three other entries in her breakthrough year.

Becky Hill previously sang uncredited vocals on the Wilkinson song "Afterglow" in 2013. Clean Bandit officially had three singles as a group this year, but their members Grace Chatto and Jack and Luke Patterson featured on the Band Aid 30 charity single "Do They Know It's Christmas?".
Songs from films
Original songs from various films entered the top 10 throughout the year. These included "Happy" (from Despicable Me 2), "Boom Clap" (The Fault in Our Stars), "Wasted" (22 Jump Street) and "Beating Heart" (Divergent).
Best-selling singles
Pharrell Williams had the best-selling single of the year with "Happy. The song spent 20 weeks in the top 10 (including four weeks at number one), sold around 1.85 million copies (including streams) and was certified 4× platinum by the BPI. "Rather Be" by Clean Bandit featuring Jess Glynne came in second place, selling more than 1.52 million and losing out by around 330,000 sales. John Legend's "All of Me", "Waves" from Mr Probz and "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran made up the top five. Singles by Ella Henderson, Sam Smith, Meghan Trainor, Pitbull and George Ezra were also in the top 10 best-selling singles of 2014.
