Ellie Goulding surprised to be ahead of Gaga's single

Singer Ellie Goulding is happy to see her number 'Burn' taking the top spot ahead of Lady Gaga's much publicised comeback single 'Applause' on the UK chart.
The 26-year-old singer, who previously succeeded in beating Gaga, 27, with her album 'Lights' hopes to win again, reported MTV.
"It feels quite funny because I remember there was a similar thing when Lights, my album, was up against Gaga's and it somehow got to number 1 above her album, so it feels like that again," she said.
"It's her big comeback single and she hasn't released anything in a while. Hopefully mine will stay at the top. It's put up a really good fight," she added.

Goulding feels she has a long way to go.
"It's mad. I don't put myself on as high a level as Katy Perry and Lady Gaga. I've still got a long way to go. I've toured with Katy and I met Lady Gaga when I won the Brit Award but they've both been an inspiration to me," she said.
