X Factor makes its clout known as the finalist group singalong debuts at the top of the chart with "Hero." Alicia Keys and Jack White take their edgy James Bond theme "Another Way to Die" into the top 10. Down at #48, the Bellamy Brothers classic "Let Your Love Flow," a top 10 hit in the UK over 30 years ago, has returned due to its use in a TV commercial.
