context_page_description: 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. 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. From 6 July 2014, streaming figures became incorporated into the singles chart which means that a song will count as a sale, if streamed 100 times. This list shows singles that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart during 2015, as well as singles which peaked in 2014 and 2016 but were in the top 10 in 2015. The entry date is when the song appeared in the top 10 for the first time.
  One-hundred and fifteen singles were in the top ten in 2015. Eight singles from 2014 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year, while "History" by One Direction was released in 2015 but did not reach its peak until 2016. Eighteen artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2015. Charlie Puth, Fifth Harmony, Kygo, The Weeknd and Zara Larsson were among the many artists who achieved their first UK charting top 10 single in 2015.

  The Christmas number-one - "A Bridge Over You" by the Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Choir - set the record for the biggest drop from number-one, falling to number 29 on its second week on the chart, and only the fourth number-one single in history to leave the top 10 after one week.
  "Uptown Funk" by British record producer Mark Ronson and American singer-songwriter Bruno Mars  returned to number-one for the first six weeks of 2015, giving the song a total of seven weeks on top of the chart. The song had vacated the top spot for one week as the X Factor series 11 winner Ben Haenow secured the 2014 Christmas number-one with "Something I Need". The first new number-one single of the year was "Love Me Like You Do" by British singer Ellie Goulding, taken from the soundtrack of the film Fifty Shades of Grey. Overall, twenty-four different singles peaked at number-one in 2015, with Jess Glynne and Justin Bieber (3) having the joint most singles hit that position.
