Brit Sweep: March 8, 2015...

The weekend's coming to a close, and it's time to check out the songs making their debut on the just-released official singles chart in Britain this week, where there's a new #1 after four weeks...

The top song in the UK this week is the first for London electronica trio Years & Years with "King", my "Brit Pick of the Week"....

British/Vincentian (from the island of St. Vincent in the Caribbean) singer Marlon Roudette jets in at #7 with "When The Beat Drops Out". This is his first top-40 hit in the UK; the song went to #1 in Germany last year and is a current American club hit...

Remixer Alex Adair enters at #13 with "Make Me Feel Better"...

The third collaboration between Kanye West and sir Paul McCartney to make the chart, "All Day", comes in at #18. The track also features Theophilus London and Allan Kingdom, and will come from West's upcoming So Help Me God album...

Alternative dance act Major Lazer arrives at #77 with "Lean On" featuring Danish singer MO and French DJ Snake. Back in 2012 they went to #56 with "Get Free"...

The final newbie of the week at #98 is Australian twin sister duo the Veronicas with "If You Love Someone". It's the follow-up to their top-10 UK hit "You Ruin Me"...

Cheers!
