Sam Sparro drops three places to make way for Wiley and Flo Rida

London, 25 March 2008 - Polling more than the entire top 40 singles sales with more than one million tracks Tagged each week, the worlds leading mobile to web music services provider Shazam unveils the UK Top 40 Tag Chart. The Shazam Chart is a strong indicator of future hit singles as its data includes what pre-release tracks are connecting with the public and being Tagged by users across the country.

This week sees Wiley jump above Sam Sparro in the race to be number one. His latest track, Wearing my Rolex, has stormed ahead, recording more Tags than any other single this week. Hot on his heels is newcomer, Flo Rida whose single, Low has stolen the number two spot suggesting he could be a big hit in the conventional charts. Another interesting entry is Nina Simone's, Sinnerman which received a record number of Tags after playing out the credits for the film, Cellular on Channel 4 on Sunday evening.

Shazam's chart for Monday 17th March to Monday 25th March 2008 is based on thousands of music fans across the UK using Shazam to 'Tag' their favourite tunes with their mobile phone. All you need to do is hold up your mobile phone and dial 2580 to sample a track for five to ten seconds. Shazam will identify the track and immediately text back the name of the artist and song title and log the request in the Tag Chart.
