Harry Styles matches Adele by pulling off a rare chart feat with Billboard Hot 100 Number 1 Watermelon Sugar

officialcharts.com:

Harry Styles has joined a very elite club of British artists with his US Number 1 single Watermelon Sugar. Number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart dated August 15, Harry’s Watermelon Sugar is the first song by a British artist to reach Number 1 in America but not in the UK, for six years, and the first by a British lead artist for eight years.

Watermelon Sugar has so far peaked at Number 4 on the UK’s Official Singles Chart. In the past 25 years, just five Brits have reached the top of the US charts with a song that did not replicate the same success on home turf, with one act managing to claim two US Number 1s that didn’t hit the top spot in the UK.
