http://ppt.cc/R6mQ Bruno Mars turns Official Albums Chart prediction on its head 15/01/2012 Advertisement By Lauren Kreisler Wednesday’s Official Chart Update reported The Maccabees as taking the lead in this week’s Official Albums race, however, following an incredibly close battle ever since, the Official Charts Company can today reveal it is all change at the top with Bruno Mars snatching a last-gasp Official Number 1, denying the Brighton indie-rockers of their first chart topper. Bruno Mars’ four-times platinum debut album 'Doo-Wops & Hooligans', finished 2011 as the year’s third biggest seller, and has now to date shifted an impressive 1.28m copies since its UK release. Having debuted at Number 1 twelve months ago where it stayed for one week, a year on and 'Doo-Wops & Hooligans' finds itself now returning to the top spot. The album features the two Number 1 hit singles, 'Just The Way You Are' and 'Grenad'e, and has never dropped out of the Top 20 in the Official Albums The Maccabees’ third studio album 'Given To The Wild' is the sole new entry in today’s Official Albums Chart Top 40. Having started the week on course for the summit, 'Given To The Wild' lands today at Number 4, bagging the band their highest charting release to date. The Maccabees’ first album 'Colour It In (2007)' peaked at 24, and second album 'Wall Of Arms' (2009) managed a Number 13. Guitarist Felix White told NME this week that he views the albums as “a fresh start for the band”. “With this album we got to piece the songs together by ourselves, it was kinda like a new start, that’s what I enjoyed the most; setting up the mood of a song.” The Official Albums Chart Top 10 01 DOO-WOPS & HOOLIGANS - BRUNO MARS 02 21 - ADELE 03 + - ED SHEERAN 04 GIVEN TO THE WILD - MACCABEES 05 4 - BEYONCE 06 WHAT DID YOU EXPECT FROM THE VACCINES - VACCINES 07 MYLO XYLOTO - COLDPLAY 08 NOEL GALLAGHER'S HIGH FLYING BIRDS - NOEL GALLAGHER'S HIGH FLYING 09 VELOCIRAPTOR - KASABIAN 10 LIONESS - HIDDEN TREASURES - AMY WINEHOUSE 恭喜火星人,從發片至今從未超過20名榜外^^ --
