Comments

Flo Rida's stunning debut at the top this week keeps the Saturdays' "Just Cant' Get Enough" from hitting the top. If it fails to rise further, "Just Can't Get Enough" will be the first Comic Relief tie-in single to fail to hit #1 since 1993. Flo Rida beats the #2 peak of his previous smash "Low."
