Jason Derulo has scored his fourth UK No 1 single, with Want You To Want Me entering the charts in the top slot. It sold 127,000 copies last week, 60,000 more than the No 2 single, Cheerleader by Omi.

Cheerleader was the most streamed record of the week, with 2.63m listens, ahead of Wiz Khalifa’s See You Again (2.14m) and Major Lazer’s Lean On FT MO & DJ Snake (2.08m).

Wiz Khalifa took the No 4 spot in the charts. The top five was filled out by Skrillex, Diplo and Justin Bieber’s collaboration Where Are U Now (No 3) and Taylor Swift’s Bad Blood (No 5). The Eurovision song contest winner, Måns Zelmerlöw, entered the charts at No 11 with Heroes.

In the albums chart, Will Young managed his fourth chart-topper, with 85% Proof, narrowly pipping another new entry – the Vaccines; English Graffiti. Taylor Swift, Mumford & Sons and Sam Smith made up the rest of the top five.

The highest climber of the week was The Very Best of Fleetwood Mac, following the band’s ecstatically received UK shows.
