Take That's return has become a major smash hit spending its 3rd week at the top of the pop singles chart. An unusual hit entering the top 5 this week is kiddie pop hit "Bing Bang (Time to Dance" from Lazytown via the nation of Iceland. Next week look for Gwen Stefani to challenge for the top as her single "Wind It Up" opens inside the top 10 at #8 based on online downloads alone.

Take That are as dominant this week on the album chart as on the pop singles chart. There is little new in stores and Gwen Stefani limps to a debut at only #26 with The Sweet Escape. Greatest hits collections continue to sell well in this Christmas season as U2 re-enters the top 10 with their collection of singles.
