After last week’s deluge of new entries, it’s a relatively quiet week this time round.  Lots of climbers, not much in the way of new songs.

LMFAO’s “Party Rock Anthem” stays at number 1 for a third week, making it the second single of the year to do so.  The biggest challenge comes from Bruno Mars’ “The Lazy Song”, which climbs from 15 to 2 in its second week.  But as of right now, LMFAO are still number 1 on iTunes (with no new releases anywhere in sight), so they could well manage a fourth week to match Adele.  Also climbing in the top ten, albeit only by one place, are Chris Brown at 4, Snoop Dogg at 5 and Katy Perry at 6.

This week’s highest new entry is “Guilt” by Nero at number 8, which is another dubstep crossover record.  This is at the more commercial end of the spectrum, given the radio-friendly vocal – many purists apparently prefer their dubstep completely instrumental, I hear – but it’s a great piece of production, with the slow build to a ridiculously overpowered bassline about a minute in.

Admittedly, the pole-dancing video is a case of having your cake and eating it – though it’s rather nicely done in the last thirty seconds or so as it starts distorting her body.

Nero are a London duo, Daniel Stephens and Joe Ray, and this is their second hit, following “Me and You” (number 15 in January – you’ll gather from these two videos that Nero are quite keen on their 80s retro).  They’re signed to Chase & Status’ MTA label, which is no surprise considering the obvious influence.

Chase & Status themselves have a new entry at 38 this week with their new single “Time”.   It’s the fourth single from the current album, and it’s actually charting on album track downloads in advance of this week’s full release.  It’s the usual slow-build-to-epic formula that Chase & Status like to use on their singles, but they do it very well.  The video is essentially a promotional film for the domestic violence charity Refuge, although as far as I can see, the single itself is not a charity release.

Judging purely as a music video, I don’t think this works. Obviously it has the best of intentions, and it does try to bring in an extra dimension near the end, but it’s very much an exercise in stock characters.

Also this week, we have two new entries for the Glee Cast – “Loser Like Me” at 27, and “Get It Right” at 31.  Unusually for Glee, these are both original songs.  That’s “original” in the sense of “not a cover version”, just to be clear.  They’re not original in any other sense of the word.  And at number 34, “Dirty Talk” by Wynter Gordon, which has been out in America for months and is now being belatedly promoted in the UK.  It’s a house track which is pretty much what you’re probably imagining, only slightly better.

Other significant climbers further down the chart: “Run The World (Girls)” by Beyonce is up to 11, Aloe Blacc’s “I Need A Dollar” to 15, Jessie J’s “Nobody’s Perfect” to 18, “Skinny Love” by Birdy to 19 (finally making the top 20 in its eighth week out), and “Give Me Everything” by Pitbull to 25.
