In the aftermath of the BRITs, critics' choice James Bay moves #12-4 at BBC Radio 1 with "Hold Back the River," while winners Royal Blood and Sam Smith fly up 20 or spots apiece. At Radio 2, Maroon 5's "Sugar" hits #1, Bay flies #22-2 and Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, who are poised for a big U.K. sales chart bow (and top the midweek update), sit at #6 with "Ballad of the Mighty."
Go here for Radio 1's full chart (courtesy of the fine folks at Radio Monitor), and here for Radio 2.
