David Bowie has made a triumphant comeback to the UK charts, with his 'Where Are You Now?' single giving the star his first Top Ten hit since 'Jump They Say' in 1993.
The song was available either as an individual purchase or was offered free with a pre-order of Bowie's new album, The Next Day.
Only songs that have been paid for are eligible for the charts, and the Official Charts Company originally said that this meant 'Where Are We Now?' would not make it into the charts, as they did not think they would be able to break down the sales.
However, they were able to do so, and Bowie's 'Where Are We Now?' has made it into sixth place in the UK singles chart. Number one has been claimed by Britney Spears and Will.i.am, with their single 'Scream and Shout'.
Tony Visconti recently told the Telegraph that Bowie might perform a one off concert in order to promote the album, but will not be touring.
He said, "He doesn't want to tour any more. He's had enough of it. But he hasn't ruled out that he might do a show. It was a relief to me to hear that he was open to that."

He also suggested that there could be another new album out relatively soon, as Bowie has at least four finished songs that could be used on the next record.
Visconti added, "If all goes well, we will be back in the studio by the end of the year. He's back. Bowie has found out what he wants to do: he wants to make records. Nothing else."
