Jessie J on course for second week on top of Official Singles Chart

Jessie J looks like she’s on course to spend a second week at Number 1 the Official Charts Company can reveal. The London-born singer’s track Domino - which climbed to the top of the Official Singles Chart this past Sunday gave Jessie her second Official Number 1 single - is sitting pretty in pole position on today’s Official Singles Chart Update. You can watch an interview with Jessie talking about how she was going to celebrate topping the Official Singles Chart below.

This week’s highest new entry on the Official Update comes courtesy of Swedish House Mafia and Knifeparty (AKA Rob Swire and Gareth McGrille from Aussie dance rockers Pendulum) with Antidote (2). If the track stays in the upper echelons of Official Singles Chart, it will give the superstar DJs their highest ever chart position to date (their previous highest placing was Number 4 with Miami 2 Ibiza FT Tinie Tempah in October 2010).

This week’s Official Update sees another superstar DJ, David Guetta, on course for the highest chart placing for his track Titanium FT Sia. Titanium, which was originally released in August 2011, looks set to climb five places to Number 3. Rizzle Kicks’ Mamma Do The Hump (5) and former Number 1, Flor Rida’s Good Feeling (5) complete this week’s Top 5.

One Direction are back today as new single One Thing makes an appearance on the Official Singles Chart Update at Number 31, despite its slated release not being until February 12.  This early buying trend also sees Cher Llloyd’s Want U Back (which is also released on February 12) at 29, and Pixie Lott’s Kiss The Stars climbing from 14 to 7 as it enters its third week on the chart (its official release date is actually January 30).

There are three other new entries in this week’s Official Update: Yasmin FT Shy FX and Ms Dynamite debuts at Number 37, US DJ Skrillex gets his first Top 40 placing with Breakin’ A Sweat at 38, and Tottenham grime star JME is also on course for his first Top 40 single with 96 F**kries (40).
