5 (4). Disturbia - Rihanna
It's the second week she's dropped, and I'm not sure if this is getting a physical release anymore, as it's missing from the schedule this week. Still #3 isn't bad, if it never ends up going higher.
4 (3). When I Grow Up - The Pussycat Dolls
Early in the week they were doing a lot better, but end up at #4, despite the CD single coming out this week.
3 (new). Thank You for a Lifetime - Cliff Richard.
No one in the U.S. would know who he is (he had a few hits in the '70s), but in the UK Cliff Richard is a pop music institution. This year he celebrates his 50th year in the limelight with a special compilation and this single. He's had 14 #1 hits, tied with Westlife at third after Elvis and the Beatles. This is his 69th top 10 hit. Wow.
2 (1). I Kissed a Girl - Katy Perry
After 5 weeks at #1, Katy Perry relinquishes, tying her with Basshunter and Duffy for the longest-running #1 hit of the year.
1 (new). Sex on Fire - Kings of Leon
American indie band Kings of Leon have been a hit in the UK for 5 years now. Last year they had their highest charting single at #13 with "Fans," but this week score their first #1 hit. It's the first single from their upcoming fourth album, Only by the Night.
