The official UK singles charts top 75.
SINGLES COMMENTARY
Last week, overseas acts filled the top three places on the chart but this week homegrown heroes take over, with debuts at one, two and three from developing UK acts Busted, Lisa Maffia and David Sneddon.
Sneddon famously won BBC's Fame Academy and topped the chart with his debut single Stop Living The Lie in January, with first-week sales of 108,000. His follow-up, Don't Let Go, sold less than a quarter as many last week--just more than 25,000--and has to settle for a number three debut, except in Scotland, where it gives him a second consecutive number one, finishing a convincing 48% ahead of nearest challengers Busted.
