Comments
It was a big battle for #1 this week ultimately won by last year's X Factor champion Alexandra Burke. "Bad Boys," the first single from her upcoming debut album, gets a boost from Flo Rida and is the fastest selling single of the year so far in the UK. Robbie Williams is back on the singles chart for the first time in 2 1/2 years but only manages a #2 debut due to the power of Alexandra Burke's release. Meanwhile Michael Buble has his biggest UK hit yet with "Haven't Met You Yet" opening in the top 10.
