Adele storms in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart with her sophomore album "21" selling a mighty 352,000 copies in its first week according to Nielsen SoundScan. Adele, who took home the best new artist Grammy award in 2009, reached No. 10 with her debut set "19." It has spent a total of 71 weeks on the tally and has shifted 948,000 copies in the U.S. This week, it bounds 50-16 on the Billboard 200, giving the singer a pair of albums in the top 20. It's the first time an act has placed their first two releases concurrently in the top 20 since Justin Bieber did it on June 5, 2010 with "My World" and "My World 2.0." 小贾斯汀这不算吧!? Another "21" song, "Someone Like You," which she has been performing to great reaction on a number of TV shows lately, bows at No. 45 with 51,000. Adele memorably sung "Someone Like You" on the Brit Awards on Feb. 16 and in two weeks' time, its two clips with the most views on YouTube have racked up 3.3 million views. 以上为Billboard的新闻撷取 ------------------------------叫我分隔线 下面是UK--------------------------- 27/02/2011 - Adele claims Top Two albums, as Gwyneth scores Glee hits Adele this week scores two Top Five singles and two Top Five albums for the second successive week, spurred by the impact of her Brit Awards performance two weeks ago – the Official Charts Company reports today. In the Official Albums Chart, she scores an impressive one-two, with her new 21 album holding on in the Number One slot, while her previous release 19 moves up into second place. 他跟披头四已经是同等级了.... In the Official Singles Chart, Adele is at Number One again with Someone Like You, which sold more than 110,000 copies for the second week in succession – while Rolling In The Deep is at number four. It is the first time for almost 12 years that one act has held the top two places in the Official Albums Chart. Back then, in March 1999, The Corrs’ Talk On Corners held first place, with Forgiven, Not Forgotten in second. It is also a week after Adele set another record - becoming the first living artist to achieve the feat of two Top 5 hits in both the Official Singles Chart and the Official Albums Chart simultaneously for 47 years, since The Beatles back in January 1964; their singles I Want To Hold Your Hand and She Loves You were numbers two and five, while their albums With The Beatles and Please Please Me were numbers one and two. The impressive performance by Adele underlines the continuing impact of the Brit Awards. Brit Awards performers account for seven of the Top 10 biggest albums this week, as reflected by the Official Albums Chart. The other story of the week is the impact of Glee and Gwyneth Paltrow’s emergence as a Top 40 artist for the first time. The latest Glee abum, Volume Four, arrives at four in the Official Albums Chart, while Paltrow’s performance in last week’s show results in two singles featuring her – Singing In The Rain/Umbrella and Forget You – arriving at 22 and 31 in the Official Singles Chart. Official Charts Company managing director Martin Talbot says, "Adele is proving to truly be THE star of 2011. Her album has already become the must-have release of the year and for Someone Like You to top 100,000 sales for two successive weeks demonstrates what a huge hit it is." -------------叫我分隔线 以下是今天official charts新闻未完待续---------------- Adele continues to dominate Adele is continuing to dominate the singles and albums market, despite the arrival of new challengers this week, according to this week’s Official Chart Update.
