- Published
American singer John Legend has topped the first televised Official UK Streaming Chart.
All of Me, a ballad he wrote for his wife, has been the most listened to track over the last week.
The show, which counts down the UK's top 20 streamed tracks, aired on MTV Music on Monday.
The streaming chart is based on audio streams generated by Spotify, Deezer, Napster, Bloom FM and O2 Tracks among others.
It covers streams across seven days, from 00:01 BST Sunday to midnight Saturday every week.
The Official Streaming Chart is different to the UK Official Chart on Radio 1, which is compiled using sales figures.
John Legend's number one ends Clean Bandit's 10 week run at the top with Rather Be featuring Jess Glynne which is now at number two.
At number three is Aloe Blacc's The Man, with Happy by Pharrell Williams and Katy Perry' Dark Horse completing the top five.
On average, the British public are streaming over 230 million tracks each week, according to Official Charts Company data.
There are five new entries on this week's Official Streaming Chart including Australian rapper Iggy Azalea's Fancy featuring Charli XCX, entering the top 100 at 71.
This week sees Paolo Nutini, who was recently confirmed for Radio 1's Big Weekend in Glasgow, making his Official Streaming Chart debut with Scream (Funk My Life Up), which enters at 82.
Other new entries included DJ Snake and Lil Jon's Turn Down For What which debuts at 85, John Martin's Anywhere For You at 87 and Josh Gad's In Summer, taken from from Disney's Frozen, at 100.
