Ed Sheeran has been knocked off the top spot by the soundtrack of the film on everybody's lips, The Greatest Showman.

The star-studded musical starring Zendaya, Zac Efron, Hugh Jackman and Keala Settle features original music written by duo Pasek and Paul, the masterminds behind the songs in La La Land.

The soundtrack has risen to Number 1 on the Official Albums Chart this week and it's dominating the UK Singles Chart also, with three songs charting in the Top 40.

'This Is Me' launches into the Top 20 at Number 16 after winning a Golden Globe earlier this week, while The Greatest Show is at 23 and Rewrite The Stars is at 26.

Pasek and Paul told OfficialCharts.com they are "honoured and thrilled that UK audiences are responding to The Greatest Showman. Truly, we are blown away."

We are not surprised! Seriously, if you haven't already seen this movie then you're missing out... massively.

Hold up, no you didn't bow, bow
I ain't the chick to walk behind you around town
Just cause you're packin', packin', whoop, down south
That don't mean I'm ever gonna take it laying down, baby

Oh, I'm a machine when I do it
I'll be catching fire, gasoline when I do it
Just cause you're packin', packin', whoop, down south
That don't mean I'm ever gonna take it laying down, baby

You're the man, but I got the, I got the, I got the power
You make rain, but I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it shower
You should know, I'm the one who's in control
I'll let you come take the wheel, as long as you don't forget

Who got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
Hold up!

My turn

I make this look easy, tick tick boom like gasoline-y
Yeah, they call me Lamborghini, 'cause I know just what I'm worth
Zero to hundred, b-b-body make' em stutter
Start my engine, push the button, 'cause I'm gon' be coming first

Oh, I'm a machine when I do it
I'll be catching fire, gasoline when I do it
Just cause you're packin', packin', whoop, down south
That don't mean I'm ever gonna take it laying down, baby

You're the man, but I got the, I got the, I got the power
You make rain, but I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it shower
You should know, I'm the one who's in control
I'll let you come take the wheel, as long as you don't forget

Who got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the
Who got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the
Hold up!

When them boys talk loose and tell you power's for a king (huh?)
You just play it cool and tell 'em power's not a thing (what?)
You look him in the eye and say, "I know I'm not a guy
But see there's power in my losses and there's power in my wins"
Independent woman, look to shower in your Bimms
They call me cocoa but I'm mad, you can't be powderin' my skin
And you don't need to spend another hour in the gym
You know I'm blinded by his grace but when you found me I was dim

And we'll be countin' down the years, yeah I'm about this
All them dirty secrets that we share, I'll clear the browsers
We the type to build on our careers and share the houses
You can be a woman and a boss and wear the trousers at the same time
You should know
That I ain't never lettin' go
But as long as I'm alive, then I'll be sponsorin' your pride
You know there's power in a couple, let me compliment your vibe, yo

You're the man, but I got the, I got the, I got the power
You make rain, but I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it shower
You should know, I'm the one who's in control
I'll let you come take the wheel, as long as you don't forget

I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
Cause I got, I got, I got the power
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
Baby don't forget I got the power, yeah
The power, yeah, yeah-eh

Motorbike, motorbike, motorbike, motorbike
Bike, bike, bike, bike
Bike, bike, bike, bike, bike, bike, whoop

Elsewhere on the album chart, Little Mix return to the Top 10 as Glory Days comes in at Number 10, while Dua Lipa climbs to Number 20.

Meanwhile, Cardi B scores her first UK Top 10 hit (!) as her epic collaboration with Bruno Mars enters the UK Singles Chart at Number 7.

The 'Bodak Yellow' superstar is featured on the official remix of Mars' brand new single 'Finesse', which has taken over our lives since it dropped last week.

It's good news all round for Rita Ora as the mega-banger 'Anywhere' climbs one spot to Number 3 and her Fifty Shades Freed duet with Liam Payne, 'For You', arrives at Number 11.

Jax Jones' latest dance anthem 'Breathe', featuring Ina Wroldsen, rises an insane 10 spots to Number 14, and Justin Timberlake makes a 'Filthy' chart return at Number 15.

Finally, our girl Camila Cabello's brand new single 'Never Be The Same' gets closer to the top as it lands at Number 29. She's coming!

Hey, if you know what's good

I said, put your filthy hands all over me
You know this ain't the clean version
And what you gonna do with all that meat?
Cooking up a mean serving, huh

No question, I want it, fire up, everybody smoking
Your friends,
my friends and they ain't leaving till six in the morning
Six in the morning
Come chill, baby, you the coldest, go for them, put them on notice
You don't wanna walk through here

Baby, don't you mind if I do, yeah
Exactly what you like times two, yeah
Got me singing, ooh, ooh
So, baby, don't you mind if I do

Look, put your filthy hands all over me
You know this ain't the clean version
And what you gonna do with all that beast?
When I leave the cage open, huh, walk to me, uh

No question, I want it, fire up, everybody smoking
Your friends,
my friends and they ain't leaving till six in the morning
Six in the morning
Come chill, baby, you the coldest, go for them, put them on notice
You don't wanna walk through here

Baby, don't you mind if I do, yeah
Exactly what you like times two, yeah
Got me singing, ooh, ooh
So, baby, don't you mind if I do

Come on, break it down
If you know what's good

If you know what's good
If you know what's good
Hey, if you know what's good
If you know what's good

Haters gonna say it's fake

All my haters gonna say it's fake

Baby, don't you mind if I do (I do)
Exactly what you like times two (times two)
Got me singing, ooh, ooh

So, put your filthy hands all over me
You know this ain't the clean version
Go on and put your filthy hands all over me
No, this ain't the clean version

Do you see me?
Can you find me?
Look closer, through the trees
Do you see it?
