The number one songs when Prime Ministers came to power

Probably the only thing Theresa May has in common with Drake

Can you remember what was number one the day you were born? How about the day your brothers or sisters were born? Or your kids?

Or perhaps you pay more attention to Christmas number ones? Many so enjoy bearing the knowledge of what particular tunes are atop the charts on that special day even when it's another X Factor contestant who'll soon fade into obscurity.

If you can recall what was number one when a certain Prime Minister came into power, though, we'd be surprised. Yesterday (13 July) saw Theresa May enter Downing Street taking over duties from David Cameron. As the historical moment occurred, the UK's number one single was Drake's "One Dance" - a song that just happens to be the millennium's longest-running number one single.

Global music streaming service Deezer has compiled a list detailing which particular songs were number one when Prime Minsters past past came into power.

Interestingly, the second longest-running single of the millennium - Rihanna and Jay-Z's "Umbrella" - was atop the charts when Gordon Brown took over from Tony Blair as Labour leader.
