That rather fine Mint Royale remix of 'Singin In The Rain', which re-entered the single charts on Sunday thanks for 'Britain's Got Talent' winner George Sampson dancing to it on the ITV show, is reportedly set to top the chart this weekend, despite being released in 2005. It got to number 20 back then, that time helped by some TV exposure too – a car ad if I remember rightly. Asked about his break dancing routine helping the single shoot back up the charts, Sampson told the BBC: "It's unbelievable - it's great to help out. The guys that made the mix messaged me on MySpace saying 'hi' so it's just incredible". So listen up pluggers of the world, you know the future of music PR – get down to TV talent show auditions and persuade acts there to use your music in their series winning performances.
