The Rolling Stones Chart A Top 10 Single, 60 Years Into The Band's Career
The Rolling Stones' 'Angry' returns to the U.K. top 10 on two charts, nearly matching its peak and ... More proving the band's sales power hasn't faded. NEW YORK, NEW YORK - OCTOBER 19: Ronnie Wood, Steve Jordan, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards perform during The Rolling Stones surprise set in celebration of their new album 'Hackney Diamonds' at Racket NYC on October 19, 2023 in New York City. (Photo byfor RS) More than 60 years after The Rolling Stones started releasing music, the legendary rock band is still churning out hits. The group remains on the charts in the United Kingdom, where it first broke through all those decades ago. This week, it doesn't just find space on some rankings, the rockers claim a top 10 smash, showing that even after all this time, there's still plenty of life left in one of the most iconic rock outfits of all time. The Rolling Stones score a top 10 win in their home country yet again this frame, and the rock outfit does so in more than one place. The group's single 'Angry' is back inside the highest tier on two U.K.-based rankings, both of which focus exclusively on sales. This week, 'Angry' leaps from No. 15 to No. 5 on the Official Physical Singles chart. That cut also rockets from No. 13 to the same position on the Official Vinyl Singles ranking. 'Angry' isn't unfamiliar with the upper reaches of either the Official Physical Singles or Official Vinyl Singles charts. In fact, the tune has previously conquered both tallies. While it's not at No. 1 this week, it's nearing that position again, and it could possibly reclaim the throne soon if sales remain steady – or even improve. Both of the lists reflect pure sales, though with slightly different focuses. The Official Physical Singles chart includes all forms of physical sales — CDs, vinyl, and cassettes — while the Official Vinyl Singles ranking only counts purchases made on vinyl formats. While 'Angry' ranks in the same spot on both charts at the moment – and it's reached the same peak position – its history on each isn't exactly identical. On the Official Vinyl Singles list, the track has now racked up 32 weeks. Its performance is even more impressive on the Official Physical Singles chart, where it has held on for 54 frames. At the moment, 'Angry' stands as The Rolling Stones' only hit single in the United Kingdom. The rock legends don't claim any other charting songs this week, but the band is present elsewhere. Over on the Official Albums Streaming chart, The Rolling Stones hold firm with the fan-favorite compilation Forty Licks. The decades-spanning collection moves up four spaces, climbing from No. 82 to No. 78 on the streaming-only tally. 'Angry' was released in September 2023 as the lead single from Hackney Diamonds, The Rolling Stones' first album of brand new material in nearly two decades. The track marked a thrilling comeback for the band and earned a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Song, while the full-length won Best Rock Album.
