Ellie Goulding reached the UK number one spot for the first time on the 18th Of August 2013, a date she will never forget. Miss Goulding topped the charts with “Burn”, a song remixed by Tiesto last month, which could only have helped the 26 year old on her rise to the top.

Having made the number one spot with “I need your Love” with ex lover Calvin Harris, this is the Herefordshire born Brits first solo number one track.

Shortly after finding out that she’d topped the charts the 26 year old wrote to her fans on Twitter “Number one. F**k. First UK number one… Thank you to all the fans for supporting me THE WHOLE TIME, overwhelmed and so happy x”.

Having recently split from Ex-Boyfriend and Worlds highest paid DJ Calvin Harris, Miss Goulding sought to make a strong impression on the public, and what more does that than a chart topping hit.

The single joins a long list of songs that cross POPular music with Dance, clearly popular with the British public.

Ellie Gouldinhgs “Burn” knocked Aviciis “Wake Me Up” collaboration with Alloe Blacc of the top spot, however they stayed strong at number two.
