Posted May 15, 201213 yr It's a third week at the top for Brittany Howard, Heath Fogg, Zac Cockrell, and Steve Johnson, otherwise known as Alabama Shakes - whose brilliant debut single "Hold On" manages to imitate its namesake and see off Swedish singer/songwriter Jonna Lee (iamamiwhoami) who drops from 2-3 this week with "Play" after a fortnight in the runners-up position. There's a whole host of competition fighting its way into the Top 10 to challenge however and the first of these challengers comes from another debut single from an American band, Poliça, and "Lay Your Cards Out" which jumps up to No 2 but is starting to slow and may not progress any further. More realistic challenges in the coming weeks are likely to be from Niki & The Dove who have already made No 2 twice with "The Fox" in 2011 and more recently "DJ, Ease My Mind" which managed 2 weeks there in February - "Tomorrow" now the bands fourth consecutive Top 10 hit vaults 9-4 this week. Jessie Ware climbs 12-6 with the spring tinged "110%" and Grimes manages the rare feat of two concurrent Top 10 hits as "Oblivion" climbs from 11-8 whilst "Genesis" continues to slowly drift down the upper tier, fading slightly 6-7 this week after 18 weeks on the chart - only The National, Friendly Fires and Robyn have managed the feat in the past 5 years.
