Calvin Harris, Alesso and Hurts are set to topple Lily Allen on this weekend’s Official Singles Chart with new track Under Control.

Calvin Harris’s chart domination shows no sign of retreat. Not content with notching up a record breaking nine Top 10 hits from his latest album, Calvin is once again eyeing chart success but this time joins forces with Swedish DJ Alesso and Hurts on vocal duties.

Under Control currently leads the race to Number 1 ahead of McFly’s Love Is On The Radio (2). McFly recently announced the formation of a new super group with fellow pop rockers Busted - a McBusted version of Love Is On The Radio also now available for fans to download this week (note, both versions of the track are combined within one chart position).

One Direction’s Story of My Life climbs seven places to Number 3 and is one of seven placings in the Top 40 for the boys at this midway stage, while Gary Barlow’s Let Me Go (4) and reigning chart topper Lily Allen’s Somewhere Only We Know (5) completes this week’s Top 5.

New Entries

DJ/producer Ben Westbeech, AKA Breach is a new entry at Number 7 with Everything You Never Had (We Had It All).

Further down, One Direction secure six new entries coinciding with the release of new album Midnight Memories Don’t Forget Where You Belong (10), You & I (11), Strong (25), Midnight Memories (29), Diana (34) and Best Song Ever (36).

Elsewhere, Afrojack FT Spree Wilson’s The Spark is fresh in at Number 14 and Justin Bieber’s Roller Coaster sits just outside the Top 20 (21).

This week’s highest climber comes courtesy of Olly Murs, Hand On Heart is up 87 places to Number 23. The single is taken from the new edition of Olly’s chart-topping album Right Place Right Time.
