Kings Of Leon‘s major commercial breakthrough single ‘Sex On Fire‘ has been revealed as one of the most downloaded tracks in the UK.
The list was counted down yesterday (April 21st) on BBC radio to recognise ten years of downloads being included in the UK Singles Chart, and is topped by Robin Thicke‘s ‘Blurred Lines‘.
“‘Blurred Lines’ is surely one of the catchiest pop hits of all time, so its success is no great surprise. But to become one of only two tracks to have been downloaded 1.5m times and climb to the top of the poll as the biggest download of all time is an incredible achievement,” Official Charts Company chief executive Martin Talbot says.

1/ Robin Thicke – ‘Blurred Lines’
2/ Adele – ‘Someone Like You’
3/ Maroon 5 feat. Christina Aguilera – ‘Moves Like Jagger’
