The UK music charts may mean less now than they used to but they’re still an indicator of what’s hot on the popular British music scene right now. This week’s Top 10 singles and Top 10 albums are listed below.
In the singles chart, Taio Cruz has held on to the top spot he nabbed last week to make it two weeks in a row at number one. Empire State Of Mind jumped to number three meaning Jay-Z now has two records in the top 10. Very little movement elsewhere means this is a dull week in the UK singles chart.
On the albums front, Madonna has gone straight in at number one with Celebration, a 36-track Greatest Hits compilation. This means she has equaled Elvis Presley’s record for the most number one albums by a solo artist. The Resistance by Muse slips to number two while Dizzee Rascal has scored big with Tongue N’ Cheek entering at number three.
