如果一首歌的銷量連續三週下滑，其排名就會自動下降，這使得歌曲比以前更難保持領先地位。

但到目前為止，Ordinary 似乎發展勢頭強勁。亞歷克斯沃倫 (Alex Warren) 最初是在 TikTok 上成名的。

他是 Hype House 的成員，這是一群共同居住在洛杉磯的創作者，在新冠疫情期間非常受歡迎。

去年，他以《Carry You Home》首次進入前十名，但今年風靡全球的卻是《Ordinary》。
It's probably been in your head for months, and it's not going anywhere anytime soon - Ordinary by Alex Warren has hit number one for the 12th week running in the UK.
It's the longest anyone's held the top spot since Ed Sheeran's Shape Of You in 2017.
And it has broken a record: Alex is the first US artist with the most weeks in a row at number one in Official Singles Chart history.
The love song dedicated to his wife has been streamed 107 million times in the UK.
But despite how well it's doing, there are still a few more weeks to go until it can claim the title of longest-running number one of all time.
That crown belongs to a song from 1953 called I Believe by Frankie Laine, which stayed at the top of the charts for a whopping 18 weeks.
One of the reasons it's impressive that it has held the spot for so long is that a few years ago, the chart changed its rules.
If a song's sales fall for three weeks in a row, it automatically gets pushed down the rankings, making it more difficult than before for songs to stay at the top.
But, so far, Ordinary seems to be going strong. Alex Warren originally found fame on TikTok.
He was a member of Hype House, a group of creators who all lived together in Los Angeles and got really popular during the Covid-19 pandemic.
His first entry into the top ten was with Carry You Home last year, but it's been Ordinary that's taken the world by storm.
