Grammy Awards recipients Ed Sheeran and Beyonce continue to dominate Billboard's Hot 100 list. Their "Perfect" duet remains at number 1 on the list three weeks in a row.

The duet version of Sheeran's hit single "Perfect" with Beyonce is considered one of the biggest music releases in 2017. Sheeran's latest album "Divide" is one of the most successful album releases of the year.

Sheeran also invited renowned Italian singer Andrea Bocelli to produce another version of the song "Perfect." The pair collaborated to bring "Perfect Symphony" accompanied by an orchestra ensemble and Bocelli's Italian lyrics.

The song is still number 1 in Billboard's Hot 100 list and is the top-selling of the week. Fans of both Sheeran and Beyonce are hoping for the track to remain at the top spot until next year with 2018 just around the corner. Sheeran and Beyonce dethroned Post Malone and 21 Savage's "Rockstar," which is now seated at number 2. "Havana" by Camila Cabello and Young Thug remains at the third spot.

Other than the "Perfect" duet with Beyonce, Sheeran and his fans are celebrating the debut of another song. The recently released track "River" by world-renowned rapper Eminem featuring Sheeran made its debut on the list at number 11.

The year 2017 is also a big one for Sheeran with the release of his third studio album and all the collaboration projects he is part of. Fans of the English singer have already something to look forward to. During an interview with The Times, Sheeran revealed that he already has plans for a new album in 2018. Sheeran is planning to produce a lo-fi album next year. "My plan is a lo-fi album that will be my lowest selling, but most loved," he said during the interview.

He also shared that his inspiration for the album is Bruce Springsteen's song "Nebraska" back in 1982.
