Going straight in at No.1 is Robbie Williams with Candy, but it’s Dreadful with a capital D, so I won’t post a link to it here.
You can hear some proper music here, from Jefferson Airplane with White Rabbit:
As such, Labrinth Feat. Emeli Sandé drops from 1 to 2 with Beneath Your Beautiful, and you have to wait 30 seconds of an advert before you get to one of the most dreary pieces of shit I’ve heard in a long time, from a man who can’t sing and a woman who’s in the same boat, using the heavy bass to cover her tediousness.
