I don't know what their formula is but it is a MESS. And their charts literally have like no longevity. They have new #1 like every week.

Not true. It seems like the UK charts are unstable because
LABELS manipulate the charts. They suppress downloads way too much, so once a song is released it jumps to #1 but falls rapidly.
"The A Team" is having great chart longevity. Same goes to 'We Found Love' (although it was released two weeks after premiere)
Honestly, the UK music industry should have the 'On Airplay, On Sale' as a law.
