The same artists turn up for both events \u2013 or, at least that\u2019s usually the case \u2013 in order to make the weekends nearly the same. <\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/hughmcintyre\/2026\/04\/20\/jack-white-blocked-from-his-first-no-1-on-one-chart-by-a-k-pop-star\/\" data-ga-track=\"InternalLink:https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/hughmcintyre\/2026\/04\/20\/jack-white-blocked-from-his-first-no-1-on-one-chart-by-a-k-pop-star\/\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"Jack White\">Jack White<\/a> was one of the only artists who did not head to Coachella twice this year.

Earlier in April, White delivered the double single \u201cG.O.D. and the Broken Ribs\u201d and \u201cDerecho Demonico.\u201d The first of those tracks debuts on one sales chart in the United Kingdom, and as it arrives, it returns the Grammy winner to his all-time career high.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed\">Jack White\u2019s \u201cG.O.D. and the Broken Ribs\u201d Debuts Inside the Top 10<\/h2>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RCVe8rM-qw0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RCVe8rM-qw0\" aria-label=\"\u201cG.O.D. and the Broken Ribs\u201d\">\u201cG.O.D. and the Broken Ribs\u201d<\/a> launches on one list in the U.K. this frame, the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.officialcharts.com\/charts\/physical-singles-chart\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.officialcharts.com\/charts\/physical-singles-chart\/\" aria-label=\"Official Physical Singles chart\">Official Physical Singles chart<\/a>.

No. 4 is as high as White has risen on the Official Physical Singles chart, and it\u2019s a slot he has settled into multiple times. <\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"color-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hM5UJvnbbuY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hM5UJvnbbuY\" aria-label=\"\u201cAnother Way to Die,\u201d\">\u201cAnother Way to Die,\u201d<\/a> White\u2019s first win on the ranking of the top-selling tunes available on physical formats like CD, cassette, and vinyl, took the rocker and Alicia Keys to No. 4 back in November 2008. White returned to that spot in 2018 with \u201cConnected by Love.\u201d That track stood as his latest debut before this frame, as it\u2019s been eight years since last White collected a bestseller. <\/p>\n<p>Another song, \u201cFreedom at 21,\u201d is White\u2019s sole top 10 to peak in a position other than No. 4. That smash rocked its way to No. 8 during its run. Another pair of cuts, \u201cI\u2019m Shakin\u2019\u201d and \u201cSixteen Saltines,\u201d only ever found their way to Nos. 24 and 35, respectively.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed\">Raye and Hans Zimmer Debut at No. 1<\/h2>\n<p>White claims the second-loftiest debut on the Official Physical Singles chart this week. \u201cClick Clack Symphony,\u201d featured on Raye\u2019s latest album <em>This Music May Contain Hope<\/em>, which also credits famed composer Hans Zimmer, launches at No. 1. Two former champions, \u201cWhere Is My Husband?\u201d \u2014 another Raye smash \u2014 and \u201cSwim\u201d by BTS, bolt to Nos. 2 and 3, respectively. <\/p>\n<p>Just one more song, \u201cRough and Twisted\u201d by Cockroaches, launches inside the highest tier. That track begins at No. 6, with \u201cNightingale Lane,\u201d yet another Raye single, separating White and Cockroaches.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed-base image-embed embed-3\" role=\"presentation\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"bMqrj\">\n<p><span style=\"-webkit-line-clamp:2\" class=\"Ccg9Ib-7 _8XF2kHYM\">LONDON, ENGLAND &#8211; FEBRUARY 26: Raye performs onstage during a concert at The O2 Arena on February 26, 2026 in London, England.
