Crazy Frog keeps U2 from being Top of Charts
Crazy Frog's version of "Axel F", the theme music to the movie "Beverly Hills Cop", is the first ring tone to have reached number one.
The continued popularity of the catchy "B-ding ding dididing..." tune meant Bono's U2 had to settle for second place for their new release "City Of Blinding Lights", taken from their album "How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb".
Funk outfit Jamiroquai was the top ten's other new entry at number eight with "Feels Just Like It Should".
Chart risers included ex-British Army officer James Blunt, who soared six places to six with "You're Beautiful", and DJ team Audio Bullys jumped three places to seven with a remix of Nancy Sinatra's "Shot You Down".
American hip-hop artist Akon's "Lonely" slipped one place to number three, cartoon band Gorillaz were down one in fourth place with "Feel Good Inc", while American R&B singer Amerie was steady at number five with "1 Thing".
American hip-hop act Black Eyed Peas fell three places to number nine with "Don't Phunk With My Heart" and "Best Of You" from American rockers Foo Fighters sank to tenth place from four.
The album charts were dominated by Coldplay's much anticipated "X & Y", which shot straight to number one on what were anticipated to be near record sales.
Retailer HMV said it expected the album, the band's first since "A Rush Of Blood To The Head" in 2002, eventually to sell as many as 15 million copies.
