Latest midweeks show that the Irish twins have fallen almost four thousand copies behind the current UK #1.


The first sales flash of the week showed Jedward just 24 copies behind Owl City's Firelies.

Today, figures revealed that the gap has increased to almost 3800 copies.

Jedward's chances of a UK #1 with Under Pressure (Ice Ice Baby) appear unlikely now as Helping Haiti - Everbody Hurts is released this Sunday. A physical release for the X Factor duo's single is still scheduled for release on February 15th.

Timabaland featuring Katy Perry continues to climb and is now closing in on the Glee Cast's Don't Stop Believing.

Marina and The Diamonds have slipped outside the top 10.

Over on the album chart, Alicia Keys remains on course to score her first UK #1 album.

The top 5 includes new releases from Corrine Bailey Rae and Ke$ha.
