En Vogue look set to have their nineties hit 'Don't Let Go (Love)' re-enter the UK charts this weekend, courtesy of X Factor girlband Little Mix.

The popular four-piece performed the song to huge acclaim on Saturday's show, leading bookmakers to slash odds on them going on to win the entire competition. They are now second favourites for victory, chasing Marcus Collins by an incredibly slim margin.

As a result, En Vogue's original has proven so popular with downloaders that it is showing up at No. 16 in today's midweek chart update, according to Music Week.

The single originally reached No. 5 back in 1996, and was sampled by Professor Green on an album track of the same name in 2009. It was also performed by Sugababes on their Change tour in 2008.
Christina Perri and The Goo Goo Dolls have also seen their respective hits 'Jar Of Hearts' and 'Iris' recieve sales boosts thanks to this year's X Factor, following performances from Craig Colton in the first live show and a pre-controversy Frankie Cocozza at Boot Camp.
Higher up the chart, Olly Murs is set to finally end Rihanna's run at No. 1, as his new hit 'Dance With Me Tonight' has got off to a comfortable start in this week's tally.

Behind him, X Factor colleague Kelly Rowland is currently in third place with 'Down For Whatever', while 2010 runner-up Rebecca Ferguson is at No. 7 following her performance of 'Nothing's Real But Love' on Sunday's results show.
The final rankings for this week's chart will be announced on Sunday on BBC Radio 1.
