Simon Cowell's Haiti Charity Single Storms UK ChartsThe Simon Cowell-organised charity single for the victims of the recent earthquake in Haiti has gone straight to the top of the UK singles chart.

The song, a cover of 'Everybody Hurts' by R.E.M, sold 453,000 copies in its first week, becoming the fastest-selling charity single this century.

The all-star release features the likes of Mariah Carey, JLS, Robbie Williams and Take That.
