The Script Songs: Exploring the UK Chart-Topping Hits and Million-Selling Anthems

The Script has cemented their place in UK chart history with a string of unforgettable hits. Four of The Script Songs have achieved over 1 million chart sales in the UK, a testament to their enduring popularity and ability to connect with audiences. Leading the charge is “Hall Of Fame,” a powerful collaboration with will.i.am, which stands as their biggest song with an impressive 1.78 million chart sales, including 111 million streams. This Number 1 single, released in 2012 while both artists were coaches on The Voice UK, perfectly encapsulates the band’s signature sound: a blend of pop-rock and rap with a stadium-ready chorus that has become a hallmark of their successful singles.

The Script celebrated their Official Number 1 Album Award for ‘Sunsets & Full Moons’ in 2019, showcasing their continued success with popular script songs.

Following closely behind “Hall Of Fame” in their catalogue of massive hits is “The Man Who Can’t Be Moved.” This emotionally resonant track, a Number 2 hit from 2008, boasts 1.57 million chart sales and marked their true breakthrough after their initial Top 20 entry with “We Cry.” Another enduring fan favorite, “Breakeven,” comes in third. Despite peaking at Number 21 in the charts, it has amassed 1.17 million chart sales and is arguably one of their most recognizable script songs. Its appeal extended beyond the UK, achieving significant success in the United States, where it reached Number 12.

“Superheroes,” a Top 3 hit from 2014, ranks as their fourth biggest single with 907,000 chart sales, demonstrating their consistent ability to produce hit records. Rounding out the top 5 is “For The First Time,” the lead single from their second album Science & Faith. This track, released in 2010, has accumulated 770,000 chart sales and remains a staple in their discography of popular script songs. Further down the list, “Rain” from 2017 secures the sixth spot, while “The Last Time” from 2019, their most recent Top 40 entry, is eighth, highlighting the depth and breadth of their successful singles over the years.
