Former X Factor starlet Amelia Lily has shot straight into the midweek charts at No.1 with her debut single, 'You Bring Me Joy'.

The new positions were confirmed this afternoon (September 12) and saw the platinum-haired singer make an appearance at the top spot, knocking Ne-Yo's 'Let Me Love You' down 2 places to No.3.

Speaking to The Official Charts Company about her new single, Lily said: "It’s still quite hard to believe that I came third in the final of one of the biggest television shows going. Now, nearly a year later, I’m releasing my first single! I’d be ecstatic if it got to Number 1, but at the same time, I’d be really proud wherever ever it charts because I’ve worked so hard on it."

The Script are this week's highest non-movers at No.2 with their Will.i.Am collaboration, 'Hall of Fame', Little Mix have remained at No.4 with their new offering 'Wings', and Taylor Swift's break-up anthem 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together' has climbed to No.7.

Elsewhere in the Top 40, Tulisa's 'Live It Up' is a new entry at 10, The Killers have debuted at 15 with 'Runaways', and Justin Bieber's 'As Long As You Love Me' has fallen 8 places to No.34.
