Adele Bond Top Spot Dreams Dashed

Adele's Bond theme song has just missed out on the top spot of the official UK singles chart after Swedish House Mafia pipped her to the post.

The dance group's offering, Don't Worry Child, featuring John Martin, remained steadfast in its battle for number one with Skyfall.

The Swede's armour saw them through the fight and the dance group remained victorious - outshining Adele who did not come off too badly in second place.

Other movers and shakers in the chart were Rihanna with Diamonds, who was last week's number one - but was forced to accept a respectable new position of fourth place.

And the global phenomenon Gangnam Style by Psy held on to third place.

Meanwhile, in the album chart, folk four-piece Mumford & Sons regained the top spot with Babel, knocking Muse's The 2nd Law out of the number one position.

It appears Mumford & Sons are enjoying a revival with their debut album Sigh No More, which was released over three years ago, keeping a top 20 position, climbing from 13th to 12th in the chart.

Ellie Goulding's Halcyon was a new entry at number two, while Jeff Lynne, the Electric Light Orchestra frontman, had a top 10 album with his solo record Long Wave, in at seven, while his band's greatest hits compilation entered the chart at eight.
