UK Top 100 Music chart summary & my views w/e March 7th 2015

Ellie Goulding stays at No.1, in the UK Top 100 Music Chart w/e March 7th 2015, with Love Me Like You Do, taken from the recent big cinema release, Fifty Shades of Grey, and it’s a drippy power ballad without any real power.

There’s just one new entry in the Top 10: a No.7 for Kelly Clarkson with Heartbeat Song, while Madonna took at a tumble at The Brits while singing her no.26 hit Living For Love. Certainly didn’t inspire anyone to buy the record in great numbers!
