Digital EP's out today but amazing news because FINALLY it's his first top 10 hit with a post-album single, number 9 on this week's Official Chart! He's on BBC Breakfast on Friday now as well as Daybreak and Britain's Got Talent.

Probs one of my faves from him now alongside Troublemaker and Busy.

 

May I add I'm glad this has done better than Army of Two.

Lovely to see him net his first post album single top 10, furthermore, it looks likely to stay top 10 this week too. It is great that the third single will not only peak higher than the second single but more importantly sell more. Dear darlin's next job now is to get the album climbing again which with mixed with the upcoming promotion should happen.
It's a really good song and it's a grower, glad to see it getting the success it deserves

Climbs into the top 5 on the official UK chart this week! Also top 20 in Ireland and Australia! The album's back in the top 10 as well :)
Great week in the UK, really didnt expect dear darling to be higher than number 6 so i was happily surprised, great to see the album top 10 again too.
Strangely all Olly's previous hits that have made top 10 status have been top 5 hits, so he either manages top 5 or misses out. Dear Darling going top 5 is a lovely surprise after Army of Two missing the top 10.
Top 5 this week with sales that would have beat 'Dance With Me Tonight', the week that got to number 1! Brilliant! :D I think this is now my 2nd favourite single of his, behind (funnily enough) 'Dance With Me Tonight'! This era's been a massive success for him. So, SO pleased 'Dear Darlin'' has been a big hit for him!
It really is a surprise how well it is performing and looks likely to remain top 10 yet again this week, overall sales roughly stand at 200,000 and i would think it is more than fair to suggest it has at least 100,000 more sales left in it over the next couple of weeks. As it stand it has already outsold army of two.

So whilst 'Right Place Right Time' is his current single here, 'Dear Darlin' is currently making waves in Europe (#2 on iTunes in Germany AND Estonia) and Sony Music in France are now releasing a new French radio mix featuring none other than Alizée - who you might remember from her single "Moi Lolita" which was a top 10 hit in the UK in 2002 - next Monday, 2nd September! Preview clip is here:

 

 

Not that it was a difficult task but this EASILY pisses all over Columbia in the States' decisions to throw Chiddy Bang and give Olly's songs so called "US mixes" (read "crap mixes") :)

Moi Lolita is of course AMAZING but I'd rather he had a more... relevant Frenchie on his song :lol: Ah well, should be worth a listen anyway!

"Moi Lolita" and much of her back catalogue.

 

That song from 2003 gives me LIFE ! She would turn me straight.

 

 

And this one might have flopped but it was amazing (and the chorus is in English) :
