UK Top 100 Music chart summary w/e February 25th 2016

February 25th 2016Lukas Graham stays at No.1, in the UK Top 100 Music chart summary w/e February 25th 2016, and I’ve heard this a zillion times in the gym. It sounds a lot like the opening to Michael Jackson‘s Earth Song with its plinky plonky crap, and I hate it.

There are no new entries in the Top 10, including the one track I thought would go in – Swings & Waterslides by the band Viola Beach, who tragically died in a car accident recently in Sweden along with their manager, Craig Tarry. The track went in at No.11.

I have to confess that I hadn’t heard any Viola Beach before, but this really is an incredibly brilliant track:
