Madonna has now been at the top for 4 weeks. This is her longest time spent at #1 since "Vogue" back in 1990. She has never had a single spend 5 weeks or more at the top in the UK. Stay tuned next week. Despite having been available for free online for a week, Coldplay's new "Violet Hill" lands in the top 10 during its first week of paid downloads. Kylie Minogue scores her 16th consecutive top 10 hit this week.
