Manchester band, Mint Royale sampled Gene Kelly's classic "Singin' In The Rain" back in 2005. The remix was used on an advert (in which Gene Kelly bodypops and breakdanced in the street), and was commercially released to eventually make the Top 20 in August of that year. This was the first single to be taken from the fantastic See You in the Morning album. The song is now set to re-enter the UK Top 40 after use in the 'Britain's Got Talent' TV show.

It's actually a 'new entry' at number one because it's changed record labels. Simon Cowell has signed it up to his 'Syco' label. Wonder if that means we'll get a physical re-release...
