Calvin and Florence have the UK's Number One single, while Leona loses out on the album chart

  • October 22, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Calvin Harris and Florence Welch have 'scored' their second UK Number One single in a row with 'Sweet Nothing'.

The single, taken from Now That's What I Call Chart Music in 2012 aka Harris' '18 Months' album, knocked Swedish House Mafia's 'Don't You Worry Child' down to Number 2.

Non-boyband boyband Lawson were a new entry at Number 6 with 'Standing In The Dark', while Rebecca Ferguson's 'Backtrack' was new at Number 15.

Tyler James' actually amazing single 'Single Tear' had to make do with a new entry at Number 28. :(

On the album chart, Global Songstress Leona Lewis was denied a third con­sec­ut­ive UK Number One album after Jake Bloody Bugg entered at Number One with his debut 'col­lec­tion'. In fact, Leona had to make do with third place behind waistcoat botherers Mumford & Sons.

Other new entries included Rebecca Ferguson's 'deluxe' version of her debut album 'Heaven' at Number 5, and Bat For Lashes at Number 6 with 'The Haunted Man'.

You can see the full charts here and here if you like.
