Earlier this summer, Def Leppard returned with an exciting new single titled “Just Like 73.” The tune quickly rose the ranks on iTunes, and it reached a number of sales-focused charts after its first full tracking week had passed. The cut, released in June, began disappearing from rankings after it sold so well upon its arrival, but now it’s back in glorious fashion.
“Just Like 73” debuts on two charts in the U.K. this week, after it was made available to buy on physical formats in the country. Def Leppard’s latest immediately gives the band another ruler in their home country–and on more than one tally.
Def Leppard’s current single blasts in at No. 1 on both the Official Physical Singles and Official Vinyl Singles charts this week. The two rosters detail the bestselling songs in the U.K. on physical formats, with the latter including only those tracks that were made available to buy on wax.
“Just Like 73” marks Def Leppard’s second career No. 1 on the two charts it dominates this frame. The rockers ruled the rankings with their previous release, “Let Me Be the One,” which topped the tallies within the past few years.
The band has only accrued a pair of top 10 hits on the Official Vinyl Singles chart, with both reaching the throne. Meanwhile, on the Official Physical Singles list, they’ve earned one additional appearance inside the uppermost region. “When Love & Hate Collide,” Def Leppard’s first hit on the tally, peaked at No. 2.
As it opens in first place on the two aforementioned charts, “Just Like 73” is also back on another ranking in the U.K. Def Leppard’s single reappears on the all-format, all-style Official Singles Sales tally at No. 20.
