The Bingo Players still have the UK's Number One single, while Biffy Clyro have the biggest selling album

  • February 4, 2013
  • Brad O'Mance

bingoplayersYour friends and ours the Bingo Players have the UK's Number One single for a second week in a row with 'Get Up (Rattle)'.

The duo — alongside rap funsters Far East Movement — managed to hold off the challenge of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis with 'Thrift Shop', which 'rocketed' 22 places to Number 2.

The rest of the Top 40 features some people going up as well as some people going down and there are only two new entries — Devlin at Number 10 with 'Rewind' and Disclosure featuring AlunaGeorge are new at 28 with 'White Noise', despite the song only being released on Friday.

On the album chart there's a new entry at Number One for Matt Cardle song­writers Biffy Clyro, whose album 'Opposites' becomes their first 'chart topper' in six attempts. GUITAR MUSIC IS BACK etc etc.

Elsewhere in the Top 10 Justin Bieber's acoustic version of 'Believe', ie 'Believe Acoustic', enters at Number 5, while Ellie Goulding's 'Halcyon' re-enters the 'upper echelons' at Number 10.

You can see the full charts here and here.
