Pharrell snatches back his singles crown from Pitbull and Ke$ha

Pharrell Williams gets his 2014 off to a great start by reclaiming the Number 1 spot after just one week away.

Last week saw Pharrell knocked off the top of the Official Singles Chart by the partying juggernauts Pitbull and Ke$ha, but revenge is sweet and Pharrell didn’t have to wait too long to dish his out.

Happy takes the Number 1 spot for a second non-consecutive week after toppling the Miami rapper’s Timber.

In 2013, he scored the two biggest-selling singles of the year and it looks like he means business in 2014, too. Happy takes pole position this week with over 107,000 copies sold.

Meanwhile, Swedish DJ and producer Avicii spends another week at Number 3 with Hey Brother, his sixth Top 10 hit. Jason Derulo also holds firm at Number 4 with Trumpets.

Fuse ODG jumps nine places to Number 5 with Million Pound Girl (Badder Than Bad) scoring his highest UK chart position to date, after debut single Antenna peaked at Number 7 last year.

British DJ duo Matrix & Futurebound climb 11 places to Number 7, securing their highest ever chart position with Control FT Marshall.
