Aussie rapper Iggy Azalea leaps in at #32 with "Black Widow" featuring Kosovan-British singer Rita Ora. It's the fifth top-40 UK hit from her debut album The New Classic; she made it to #5 with "Fancy"...


Irish-British female vocal group the Saturdays just released their first greatest hits set, and a new single from the collection, "What Are You Waiting For?", comes in at #38. All 18 of their singles have made the top-40 in the UK, and they nabbed a #1 hit with "What About Us" in 2012...


Scottish alternative rock band Twin Atlantic follow up their #17 hit "Heart And Soul" with the song at #47, "Brothers and Sisters"...


While British singer-songwriter George Ezra's break-through single "Budapest" remains in the top-10, his next release "Blame It On Me" enters at #56...


Londoner Jamie T is back at #74 with "Zombie", my "Brit Pick of the Week". The indie-rock singer/songwriter went to #9 in 2007 with "Calm Down Dearest"...


UK X Factor finalists Kingsland Road enter the chart for the first time as "Dirty Dancer" is in at #85...


The fifth official single from Katy Perry's Prism album, "This Is How We Do", arrives on the chart at #86. The first release, "Roar", went to #1 last year...


Pharrell Williams moves in at #92 with the third single from his GIRL set, "Come Get It Bae"...


The final new entry of the week at #97 belongs to English singer Foxes with "Glorious". It's the fourth single and title track of her debut album. She went to #7 earlier this year with "Let Go For Tonight"...



 That's it for tonight...Cheers!
