It’s not just in the UK, the 1985 track has been hitting top tens around the world. But it’s here in the UK where we’ve been expecting the track to reach the top spot on the back of all the ‘Stranger Things’ hype.However, so far it has been unable to knock ‘As It Was’ by Harry Styles off its perch atop the main UK singles chart, despite it being streamed far more than Styles’s song.
