Ed Sheeran tops the Official Albums Chart

Ed Sheeran has returned to the top of the Official Albums Chart this week with his debut release ‘+’.

The Suffolk singer/songwriter has climbed eight places from last week’s Number 9 to this week’s Number 1. ‘+’ became the fastest selling digital debut album in chart history when it was released in September, and is the second biggest selling debut album of 2011 behind Jessie J’s ‘Who You Are’.

Last week’s Number 11, Bruno Mars’ ‘Doo-wops And Hooligans’, has also climbed eight places to Number 2, while Coldplay’s ‘Mylo Xyloto’ is this week’s Number 3. Olly Murs’ former chart topping second album, ‘In Case You Didn’t Know’ slips one place to this week’s Number 4, and Amy Winehouse’s posthumous third album, ‘Lioness: Hidden Treasures’, is this week’s Number 5.
 
Adele’s ‘21’ holds firm at this week’s Number 6 while Rihanna’s ‘Talk That Talk’ (7), One Direction’s ‘Up All Night’ (8), Rebecca Ferguson’s ‘Heaven’ (9) and Jessie J’s ‘Who You Are’ round off this week’s Top 10.
