Basshunter Beats Adele & Stays Number 1

Basshunter "Now You're Gone" is number one for the second week running - beating stiff competition from Adele.

As Frazier at ChartBlog puts it;
"Second week at the top for the 'Hunter who killed Leon Jackson, and now he has his powerful bass gun fixed on Adele, Rihanna, Lupe Fiasco and Britney. Not that Britney needs any help in the destruction stakes, you understand. 'Piece Of Me' is becoming less defiant and more prophetic with every passing day. I mean first of all it was just an invitation to a fight, but now it's like the song is demanding "do you WANT me in pieces? And if so, are you prepared to help clean them all up?". Possibly another No.1 record is not what she needs right now, so there's another reason to be grateful to this song right there"
