December 15, 201312 yr No she hasn't. She has 10 now but Dusty Springfield, also British, has 11. Just checked Polyphex. I said TOP 5, not TOP 10. Dusty only has 5 top 5 hits. :)
December 15, 201312 yr Are you looking at Top 10s? This is Leona's 8th Top 5, which as the previous poster said, is a British record

Yay for Robbie though :D No second album chart post today as there aren't any new entries between 6 and 40, since Beyoncé climbed out of that region. (Well there might be but I doubt it).
December 15, 201312 yr Something isn't a spoiler if it's already on the OCC's website, right? If it relates to things not yet announced (i.e. the singles top 5), please don't post it.
December 15, 201312 yr Happy to see Robbie back at #1 on the album chart. :w00t: Hope he can stay there for Christmas Number 1 album next week! Jolly well hope so but aren't 1D on XF tonight? :(
December 15, 201312 yr Oh my at Beyoncé entering at no5 in the albums - hope outside of the top 3 this doesn't indicate sales are fairly poor?! OCC says 'nearly 68k'!
December 15, 201312 yr 5 :arrowup: (from 7) Ellie Goulding - How Long Will I Love You [P] http://a3.mzstatic.com/us/r30/Music6/v4/4f/2a/49/4f2a49e9-379c-e9da-327e-9731aa34b407/13UAAIM74146.170x170-75.jpg Chart Run: 3-4-8-7-5 [5 wks] Release date: 10-11-2013 / 11-11-2013 Format: digital single / CDS Label: Polydor Ltd. (UK) Sales: 200k+ Video here: an4ySOlsUMY Biography Ellie Goulding is a British vocalist whose music finds the balance between electro-pop and indie folk. Born in Hereford, England, she later moved to the country's east coast to study drama at the University of Kent. Goulding had developed a love for folk music as a teenager, and her time at University also exposed her to electronica. After two years, she took a break from her studies and moved to West London, where she pursued a career as an alternative singer/songwriter and befriended producers like Starsmith and Frankmusik, who gave her songs an electro-pop twist. In 2009, Goulding began building an audience via the internet, where early tracks like "Starry Eyed" and a cover of Sam Sparro's "Black & Gold" were posted on taste-making MP3 blogs such as Discodust. Goulding soon graduated from the blogosphere to print media, gaining praise from mainstream publications like The Guardian and fielding offers from record labels. She ultimately signed a major-label deal with Polydor Records and began making preparations to release her debut album. In the meantime, she penned songs for Diana Vickers, Gabriella Climi, and others. During the final weeks of 2009, Goulding topped the BBC's "Sound of 2010," a poll conducted by British music critics and industry insiders to identify new talent. Building on that momentum, she released Lights — a sparkling debut album that splashed Goulding's vocal flutter across a landscape of acoustic and synthesized instruments — in March 2010. Lights topped the U.K. charts during its first week and spun off a Top Five single, "Starry Eyed," which also charted well in Ireland and New Zealand. Later that year, the album was re-released as Bright Lights, featuring seven new recordings (including a cover of Elton John's "Your Song," which peaked at number two). In 2012, Goulding returned with her sophomore album, Halcyon, which showcased an even more sonically adventurous, electro-pop-infused sound. In 2013, a deluxe reissue featuring ten extra songs was released, entitled Halcyon Days, it acted as supplement to the original release. ~ Andrew Leahey & Jason Birchmeier, Rovi / iTunes Chart history (Year peak title): 2009 53 Under The Sheets -1- 2010 04 Starry Eyed -2- 2010 26 Guns And Horses -3- 2010 19 The Writer -4- 2010 12 Wonderman (Tinie Tempah Feat.
