📻 UK Radio Airplay Chart: Taylor Swift Explodes, Ariana Grande Surges and Alex Warren Holds Firm at the Top

The latest UK radio airplay chart delivers one of the most eventful weeks of the year, combining blockbuster debuts, major upward movers and a fierce battle between established superstars and fast-rising new names. While Alex Warren retains the crown with Fever Dream, the biggest talking points come from the explosive arrivals of Taylor Swift, Niall Horan and Ellie Goulding, alongside a spectacular leap from Ariana Grande.

🚀 Taylor Swift Scores the Highest New Entry of the Week

The standout debut belongs to Taylor Swift, whose new single I Knew It, I Knew You storms straight into the Top 5 at No.5.

The impressive launch comes amid intense global attention surrounding the song, which was written for Pixar’s upcoming Toy Story 5. The track has already broken multiple streaming records across major platforms and quickly established itself as one of the biggest soundtrack releases of 2026. Those streaming numbers have translated immediately into UK radio support, with programmers clearly embracing the record from day one.

The airplay performance is particularly notable because Swift is already enjoying strong radio exposure with Opalite (No.28) and Elizabeth Taylor (No.29), giving her three singles inside the Top 30 simultaneously.

Across the UK’s monitored stations, I Knew It, I Knew You has rapidly appeared on major commercial outlets including Capital FM, BBC Radio 1, KMFM, BFBS Radio and numerous regional Hot AC stations, helping fuel one of the strongest opening weeks of the year.

🔥 Ariana Grande Delivers the Week’s Biggest Climb

No artist generates more momentum this week than Ariana Grande.

Hate That I Made You Love Me rockets from No.17 to No.7 in only its second week on the chart, signalling that radio programmers are still expanding support rather than reaching saturation.

The surge is hardly surprising. The single launched the campaign for Grande’s upcoming album Petal, scheduled for release in late July, while also marking her return to large-scale touring and a new musical era following the success of Eternal Sunshine. The track has generated significant international buzz since its release and quickly became one of the most discussed pop records of the past fortnight.

The song is already receiving strong exposure from BBC Radio 1, Capital FM, KISS, BFBS Radio, KMFM, Radio Essex and several other key UK broadcasters, suggesting further gains are likely over the coming weeks.

👑 Alex Warren Extends His Reign

At the summit, Alex Warren remains untouchable.

Fever Dream climbs from No.2 to No.1 and secures a second stint at the top after 15 weeks on the chart. The track has become one of the most consistently supported records across UK radio, receiving widespread rotation from both national and regional stations.

Even more impressive is the arrival of Warren’s new single Passenger at No.75. The simultaneous success of both tracks demonstrates that UK radio remains heavily invested in his current campaign, a rare achievement for a relatively recent breakthrough artist.

Among the stations backing Warren are Capital FM, KISS, BFBS Radio, KMFM, Radio Essex, Channel 103, Original 106 and numerous local broadcasters throughout the UK.

🎸 Olivia Rodrigo Continues Her Dominance

While Drop Dead remains firmly lodged inside the Top 3 at No.3, Olivia Rodrigo is quietly enjoying one of the strongest overall radio weeks of any artist.

Her latest single The Cure debuts at No.37 after just three weeks on the chart, giving her two songs inside the Top 40. The timing coincides with a major burst of media attention surrounding her newly released album and her headline-grabbing Primavera Sound appearance, where she debuted a brand-new collaboration with Robert Smith of The Cure. The performance generated extensive international coverage and further reinforced Rodrigo’s position as one of pop’s most influential current artists.

Radio support is remarkably broad, with Rodrigo receiving spins across BBC Radio 1, Capital FM, KISS, BFBS Radio, BBC Radio Wales and numerous regional stations. In fact, she appears on more monitored playlists than almost any other artist in this week’s survey.

🌟 Niall Horan Makes an Immediate Impact

One of the week’s most promising new entries comes from Niall Horan, whose Tastes So Good debuts at No.38.

The launch follows the release of his new album Dinner Party, a project currently generating strong press coverage and positive critical reaction. Early indicators suggest UK radio is responding enthusiastically, particularly among adult contemporary and Hot AC formats.

Initial support is coming from BBC Radio 2, Capital FM, Downtown Radio, BFBS Radio and several regional stations, creating a solid platform for future growth.

📈 Myles Smith and Jorja Smith Gain Serious Momentum

Several British acts also enjoy significant gains.

Myles Smith climbs from No.28 to No.17 with Hold Me In The Dark, one of the strongest upward moves inside the Top 20. The song’s growing radio footprint mirrors the remarkable consistency Smith has demonstrated over the past year, while Drive Safe remains charted at No.41.

Meanwhile, Jorja Smith delivers an eye-catching jump from No.68 to No.45 with What’s Done Is Done. Strong support from BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 1Xtra, KISS Xtra and other urban-focused outlets appears to be accelerating the track’s momentum.

🎤 Ellie Goulding Returns

Another major talking point is the return of Ellie Goulding.

Black Prada Dress debuts at No.72 and immediately earns support from influential stations including BBC Radio 1, Heat Radio, Affinity Radio and Q Radio. While still in its infancy, the single gives Goulding a fresh foothold on UK radio and could become one of the chart’s key developing stories during the summer.

🎶 Other Movers Worth Watching

Several additional records deserve attention:

• Drake surges from No.61 to No.39 with Janice STFU, benefiting from concentrated support across BBC Radio 1Xtra, KISS and KISS Xtra.
• Lewis Capaldi rises 22-19 with Stay Love, continuing his steady comeback campaign.
• The Script jump 41-35 with Man In The Arena as adult contemporary stations increase rotations.
• Sonny Fodera & LiBianca soar 89-47 with Let Me Be In Your Arms, one of the chart’s strongest percentage gains.
• Kasabian rebound to No.73 with Great Pretender, helped by strong alternative-radio backing.
• Nothing But Thieves advance 70-62 with Evolution, driven by continued support from rock-oriented broadcasters.

🎯 Conclusion

This week’s UK airplay chart reflects a fascinating mix of established megastars and emerging names. Alex Warren remains radio’s dominant force, but the biggest momentum clearly belongs to Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande, whose latest releases are rapidly becoming unavoidable across the British airwaves.

At the same time, Olivia Rodrigo continues to build one of the year’s strongest radio campaigns, while Niall Horan, Ellie Goulding, Jorja Smith and Myles Smith are all positioning themselves as serious contenders for major summer airplay success.

If the current trajectory continues, next week’s chart could see an increasingly intense battle between Swift, Grande and Rodrigo as radio programmers decide which of 2026’s biggest pop releases deserves to dominate the UK airwaves.
