Swedish duo Icona Pop have claimed their debut UK number one single from former chart toppers Robin Thicke and Pharrell Williams.

Their track I Love It FT Charli XCX has shifted nearly 125,000 copies in the last seven days.

Thicke's Blurred Lines sold a further 110,000 copies with its combined total now topping 829,000 sales.

Brits Critics' Choice winner Tom Odell landed the top album spot with his debut Long Way Down.

The 22-year-old singer-songwriter said: "I just found out and I don't even know what to say about it. I got a bit emotional, to be honest with you."

Speaking to the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ from Glastonbury, Odell added: "I've worked so hard for this for so long and it's just... it's still sinking in.
