Baccara’s ‘Yes Sir, I Can Boogie’ is in the UK chart tonight following Scotland’s historic win against Serbia.

The 70s classic is the second-highest New Entry at Number 3 on The Official Big Top 40 - the UK’s biggest chart show.

‘Yes Sir, I Can Boogie’ has been hailed Scotland’s new unofficial anthem after a video of the Scotland team singing and dancing to the 1977 track in their dressing room went viral on Thursday night after their heroic win against Serbia.

The tune - adopted by fans as a tribute to defender Andy Considine – has become a Top 3 hit as the nation celebrates reaching the Euros, charting higher than Sam Smith, Miley Cyrus and Ariana Grande.

Little Mix retain their position at Number 1 for a second week with latest single 'Sweet Melody'.

Last week, the girls became the most-successful group in chart history with more Number 1s (six) than any other act.

Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards from the group joined Will Manning this Sunday to celebrate the news and answered fan questions about their new album Confetti.
