Clean Bandit's Rockabye is set for a second week at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart
Plus there are new Top 40 entries from Vaults, The xx and Zara Larsson on this week's Official Chart Update.
It doesn’t look like Clean Bandit will be giving up their chart crown just yet, as Rockabye is set for a second week at the top of the Official Singles Chart.
At the halfway stage of the chart week, the trio have a healthy lead over Little Mix’s Shout Out To My Ex, which holds firm at Number 2.
Rockabye is Clean Bandit’s second Number 1 single following Rather Be in 2014, the first for featured singer Anne-Marie and the third chart-topper for guest rapper Sean Paul, after Breathe with Blu Cantrell (2003) and What About Us with The Saturdays (2013).
