Foreigner drop to number two, just ahead of I Know Him So Well, which spends a second week at number three for Elaine Paige and Barbara Dickson.
Bruce Springsteen takes Dancing In The Dark back up to number 4, equalling the peak this record first achieved last May.
This week’s highest new entry is from Colourfield with Thinking Of You at number 15.
