BBC Radio 2 has announced a series of shows to mark the 70th anniversary of the Official Singles Chart. 14th November 2022 marks 70 years since the publishing of the first ever Singles Chart in the UK, and Official Charts has created a bespoke chart featuring the most-streamed song released in each year since 1952, offering a fascinating insight into how we judge the music of the past in the modern day.

The chart will be available on BBC Sounds from Friday 4 November as a BBC Sounds collection called The UK’s Official Most Streamed Songs.

On-air, Radio 2 will broadcast each decade's charts from 1960-1999 during the Sounds Of The 60s/70s/80s/90s shows on Saturday and Sunday 11 and 12 November, alongside a one-off BBC Sounds programme hosted by Paul Gambaccini - Most Streamed Songs of the 50s - showcasing the tracks from 1952-1959.

Covering the most-streamed songs released between 2000-2022 will be our own Official Chart Show host Jack Saunders over on BBC Radio 1.
