Singer-songwriter Bruno Mars has secured the top spot in today's midweek update (November 14) with his new single.

'Locked Out Of Heaven' is currently outselling Little Mix's new cut 'DNA', which debuted this afteroon at No.2, by 3,000 copies so the positions could change by the time they're confirmed on the weekend.

One Direction's 'Little Things' entered the UK Top 40 at No.3 this afternoon and they are also celebrating a midweek No.1 in the albums chart with 'Take Me Home'.

Elsewhere in the chart, McFly's 'Love Is Easy' made an appearance at 7, Stooshe's cover of 'Waterfalls' came in at No.14, and Ed Sheeran's 'Give Me Love' has gone in at 19.
