Jedward Eat Owl City's Dust In Race For Number One

February 4, 2010
Jedward Eat Owl City's Dust In Race For Number OneJedward are falling behind the the race for this week's number one single.

On Tuesday, the Irish twins' Vanilla Ice collaboration 'Under Pressure (Ice Ice Baby)' was a mere 24 copies behind Owl City's 'Fireflies'.

According to figures released today, Owl City have now increased their sales lead to more than 4,000, leaving the hyperactive X Factor rejects in the shade.

Solace can be found, however, from the fact that Jedward rare likely to get a huge sales boost when the physical version of the single hits the shelves on February 15.
