Lily holds on to the top spot once more, while best pals Miley and Taylor get some chart action to share between them.

[Poll #1354094]

Lower reaches watch: some Brits-related re-entry shenanigans going on, with high climbs from Kanye, Take That, Duffy and the Ting Tings. Lovely.

In such a good mood about "Fly on the Wall" and (to lesser extent) Taylor getting in this week that I decided to give U2 THE TICK. (So does this mean that "Fly on the Wall" has officially done better in the UK now than it has in the US?)

I haven't been paying much attention to Radio Disney, but they did give "Fly On The Wall" a big push last August, so I'd say the answer to your question is "No, not yet" though I think the big push registered more in album sales than downloads (according to Wiki "Fly On The Wall" got 229,000 downloads total, which is one third of what the new Eminem single did in its first week).

Btw, while visiting Wiki I discovered - assuming that Wiki is right - that, though "Fly On The Wall" has Antonina Armato and Tim James on the writing credits (producers and co-writers of "See You Again" and "Potential Breakup Song" and many other good ones), the production is not by them but by Max Martin.

255,000 total digital downloads, actually, which means maybe a little more than a third of "Crack A Bottle"'s first-week numbers.
