UK Top 100 Music chart summary w/e February 23rd 2013

Going straight in at No.1 is Avicii Vs. Nicky Romero with I Could Be The One and it’s yet another dull, generic ‘dance’ track, partnered with a video that makes me wonder if I can get the last five minutes back which I spent watching that.

You can see the video here:

As such, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis Feat. Wanz drops to No.2 with Thrift Shop, and it’s a pile of utter shit from a white bloke who thinks he’s a black rapper.
