Calvin Harris and Sam Smith were battling it out for Number 1 this week.
The British stars went to Number 1 together with 'Promises' last year but this week went head-to-head.
Sam Smith's 'Dancing With A Stranger' knocked Calvin's 'Giant' off the Number 1 spot after just one week at the top.

The track with Normani climbed a place and Sam joined Will Manning on the phone from LA to hear the news.
It meant Calvin's collaboration with Rag'n'Bone Man had to settle for the Number 2 spot, with Ariana Grande's latest single '7 Rings' jumping a place to Number 3.
