I know it's for charity but...STUPID X FACTOR SONG MUST DIE! I will take comfort in the fact their charity singles rarely have longevity so it shouldn't be ruining the charts for much longer

i know. this could of been ellie's week. her 1st #1.
‘Only girl’ may be slowly heading down the chart, but Rihanna’s collaboration with Drake ‘What’s my name?’ is set to become another big hit, last week it debuted at 18, it’s now up 8 places at a new peak of number 10 and thus becomes Rihanna’s 15th UK Top 10 hit and Drake’s first.

Charity power puts X Factor's Heroes at the summit
The X-Factor Finalists’ Help For Heroes single, a cover of David Bowie’s Heroes, has been confirmed at Number One after selling 144,000 copies in its opening week – the third biggest one-week sales tally of the year.
Only Help For Heroes' Everybody Hurts and Cheryl Cole's Promise This have reached number one with a higher tally this year, with 453,000 and 157,000 respectively.
On the albums front, Take That score their second week at Number One by selling 208,000 copies of their Progress album, ahead of JLS's Outta This World in second place. But the biggest album of the week is Now That's What I Call Music 77, which roars into the Official Compilation Albums chart with 334,000 sales last week.
The X Factor finalists have gone straight in at number one in the UK singles charts with their charity single 'Heroes'.
The David Bowie cover, released in aid of Help For Heroes, knocked last week's chart-toppers JLS down to third position.
One Direction's Zane told Reggie Yates: "It was pretty crazy when we were told we got to number one. Because it's for such a good cause and something we're all really proud about, that makes it so much better."
Of this week's top five, three of the singles are X Factor-related, with last year's runner-up Olly Murs coming in four with his single 'Thinking of Me' and 2008's second-place finishers JLS at three with 'Love You More'.
Rihanna takes two spots within the top ten, with Drake collaboration 'What's My Name' at ten, and 'Only Girl in the World' dropping one place to five.
The Black Eyed Peas, Cee Lo Green and Mike Posner all drop out of the top ten, while The Beatles re-enter the chart with 'Let It Be' at 38.
Other new entries are Gorillaz with 'Doncamatic' at 37, Usher with 'More' at 33, Jessie J with 'Do It Like a Dude' at 25 and Brett Domino's comedy effort 'Gillian McKeith' entering the chart at 29.
The top ten in full:
1) (-) X Factor Finalists: 'Heroes'
2) (3) Ellie Goulding: 'Your Song'
3) (1) JLS: 'Love You More'
4) (-) Olly Murs: 'Thinking of Me'
