Gotye on course to reclaim Official Number 1 single from DJ Fresh
Gotye is presently on course to reclaim the Official Number 1 single from DJ Fresh, whose track Hot Right Now FT Rita Ora, last week became the UK’s first ever drum & bass Number 1.
The Australian-Belgian singer/songwriter is set to return to the top spot this weekend with the globally successful Somebody That I Used To Know FT Kimbra currently leading the singles race by over 7,000 copies. Watch our video interview with Gotye from when he topped the Official Singles Chart earlier this month below:
The only other new entry inside the Official Singles Chart Update Top 40 is Gym Class Heroes FT Neon Hitch with Ass Back Home.
Late pop icon Whitney Houston continues to make an impact this week with 13 of her hit singles looking likely to remain present in the Top 200, I Will Always Love You holds out within the Top 40 at Number 31 today.
