The UK Singles Chart is one of many music charts compiled by the Official Charts Company that calculates the best-selling singles of the week in the United Kingdom.[1] Since 2004 the chart has been based on the sales of both physical singles and digital downloads, with airplay figures excluded from the official chart.[2][3] This list shows singles that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart during 2009, as well as singles which peaked in 2008 and 2010 but were in the top 10 in 2009. The entry date is when the song appeared in the top 10 for the first time (week ending, as published by the Official Charts Company, which is six days after the chart is announced).
One-hundred and twenty-nine singles were in the top ten in 2009. Eleven singles from 2008 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year, while "TiK ToK" by Kesha, "Starstrukk" by 3OH!3 featuring Katy Perry, "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey, "Look for Me" by Chipmunk featuring Talay Riley, "The Climb" by Joe McElderry and "3 Words" by Cheryl featuring will.i.am were all released in 2009 but did not reach their peak until 2010. "Broken Strings" by James Morrison featuring Nelly Furtado was the only song from 2008 to reach its peak in 2009. Forty-three artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2009. Emeli Sandé, Lady Gaga, Jason Derulo, Michael Bublé, Pixie Lott, Taylor Swift and Tinchy Stryder were among the many artists who achieved their first UK charting top 10 single in 2009.
The 2008 Christmas number-one, "Hallelujah" by X Factor series 5 winner Alexandra Burke, remained at number-one for the first week of 2009. The first new number-one single of the year was "Just Dance" by Lady Gaga. Overall, thirty-one different singles peaked at number-one in 2009, with Lady Gaga and Black Eyed Peas (3) both having the most singles hit that position.

Lady Gaga and Tinchy Stryder both scored three more top 10 singles in 2009. Chipmunk had four other entries in his breakthrough year.

- Notes
Amelle from Sugababes (who joined the group in 2005) had a solo hit with Tinchy Stryder on "Never Leave You". "Fight for This Love" was Cheryl Cole's debut single as a solo artist independent of Girls Aloud. The song reached number-one.
Young Soul Rebels was a charity super-group that recorded the song "I Got Soul" to raise money for War Child UK. Among the participants were Pixie Lott, VV Brown, N-Dubz, Tinchy Stryder, Frankmusik, Kid British, Ironik, Chip, McLean, MPHO, Bashy and the London Community Gospel Choir. Comedian Peter Kay had previous chart entries on "Is This the Way to Amarillo", "(I'm Gonna Be) 500 Miles" and as Geraldine McQueen but the Animated All Star Band was a new act to the chart.
Joe McElderry sang on "You Are Not Alone" with his fellow X Factor series six contestants prior to his debut solo hit "The Climb". Jedward and Olly Murs would both go on to record top 10 singles in later years. Although "Beat Again" was the first solo chart entry for JLS, they sang on "Hero" during their time on series 5 of The X Factor, which peaked at number-one in 2008.
Songs from films
[edit]Original songs from various films entered the top 10 throughout the year. These included "Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)" (from Slumdog Millionaire) and "Sweet Disposition" (500 Days of Summer). "The Climb" from Hannah Montana: The Movie was also covered by Joe McElderry as his winning song on The X Factor.
Charity singles
[edit]A number of singles recorded for charity reached the top 10 in the charts in 2009. The Comic Relief single was a cover version of Depeche Mode's "Just Can't Get Enough" by The Saturdays, peaking at number two on 14 March 2009 (week ending) after a performance on the telethon. A second single was released for Comic Relief, "(Barry) Islands in the Stream", a parody of "Islands in the Stream" by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton, and reached number-one for a single week. It was performed by Ruth Jones and Rob Brydon, as their characters from the British sitcom Gavin & Stacey, Vanessa Jenkins and Bryn West, and also featured Welsh singer Tom Jones and Robin Gibb from the Bee Gees.
A charity supergroup known as Young Soul Rebels, which included acts such as Pixie Lott, N-Dubz and Tinchy Stryder, peaked at number ten on 31 October 2009 (week ending) with "I Got Soul", an adapted version of "All These Things That I've Done" by The Killers. The song was raising money for War Child UK.
The finalists from the sixth series of The X Factor (which included winner Joe McElderry, Olly Murs and Jedward) got together for a single, "You Are Not Alone", which had been a hit for Michael Jackson. It reached number one on 28 November 2009 (week ending) with profits going to benefit Great Ormond Street Hospital.[4]
The Children in Need single for 2009 was created by comedian Peter Kay. His 'All Star Animated Band' featured British children's cartoon characters including Bob the Builder, Fireman Sam and Postman Pat. The song, "The Official BBC Children in Need Medley", comprised a mashup of covers of seven popular songs: in order, "Can You Feel It", "Don't Stop", "Jai Ho!", "Tubthumping", "Never Forget", "Hey Jude" and "One Day Like This". It reached number one on 5 December 2009 (week ending).
