UK Top 100 Music chart summary w/e October 13th 2012

Going straight in at No.1 is Rihanna with Diamonds, and it’s tedious.

You can see the video here… Well, the music from it. Where’s the video?

As such, PSY drops to No.2 with Gangnam Style and everyone who has bought it should take their cyanide capsules now.

Adele goes in at No.4 with Skyfall and it proves that there hasn’t been a decent Bond theme since kd lang‘s Surrender graced the closing credits of Tomorrow Never Dies in 1997.

And at No.84, Chris Brown appeals to us with Don’t Judge Me. I think he’ll find Rihanna’s bruised face provided the evidence!
