If we were the train driver on the Midweeks Express, we'd be saying something like "All change please!" right about now.

Weeeeell... Usher's on course for the double! 'OMG's bounced back to pole position on the singles chart, while Raymond v. Raymond is set to debut at No.1 on the albums countdown.

His closest competition on the singles chart comes from Roll Deep, on course to debut at two with 'Good Times', and Diana Vickers, who's slipped to third with 'Once'.

Taio Cruz and Ke$ha's 'Dirty Picture' has risen since Sunday... to the tune of a single place.

The Glee version of 'Like A Prayer' is already inside the top 30.

Marina and the Diamonds' 'I Am Not Robot' has climbed into the top 35, while Alexandra Burke's 'All Night Long' is right at the edge of the top 40.

Over on the albums chart, Usher's biggest threats are Plan B and Bullet For My Valentine.

Meanwhile, Glee's Madonna EP is on course for a top five debut and Her Madgesty's Celebration comp has bounced back into the top 40.

So, do we think Usher can keep it up - on both charts - right through 'til Sunday?
