The Amazing Chart: Best Friends

February 13th, 2012

Every Sunday evening, Charlie Ashcroft counts down the Amazing Chart across the UK’s national DAB network on Amazing Radio. Here he is to give us the very latest lowdown on the last week’s movers and shakers from amazingtunes.com

Hello! Hot on the heels of the single being released here in the UK, Friend Crush by Friends has topped the Amazing Chart. The band have enjoyed some sell-out gigs in Manchester and London over the past seven days and will be making a return trip to UK shores in May to get their festival season started with an appearance at The Great Escape.

Their rise to the top means that Swiss Lips have fallen a place with U Got The Power, joined in the Top 3 this week by Oslo’s finest, Team Me. Slightly further down, Londoners The Ghosts and We Have Band have both entered the Top 5 for the very first time, while Devin and Howler are also on the up with maiden entries into the Top 10.

In the realm of New Entries, Lianne La Havas scores her second consecutive Amazing Chart hit with Forget having landed at Number 13, while Errors and Vanbot have made their chart bows inside the Top 20 with Pleasure Palaces and Make Me, Break Me respectively.
