Posted March 1, 200916 yr Better late than never. It's the long awaited update of the decade album chart. It's completely unofficial with sales & positions based on my own data and guesswork. It's calculated by puting figures in boxes, so if you see anything that looks wrong or is missing, please let me know. The chart is compiled up to the end of December 2008 as I work by calendar year. Feel free to update Leona & Duffy, if you wish. Previous positions are from the end of 2007 (the last time I compiled the chart) The Top 60 Albums of the Decade 1 (1) Back to Bedlam - James Blunt 3,166,000 2 (2) No Angel - Dido 3,033,000 3 (23) Back to Black (Combined) – Amy Winehouse 2,907,000 4 (3) White Ladder - David Gray 2,904,000 5 (4) Life For Rent - Dido 2,838,000 6 (5) 1 - The Beatles 2,799,000 7 (6) Scissor Sisters - Scissor Sisters 2,705,000 8 (7) A Rush Of Blood To The Head - Coldplay 2,687,000 9 (8) Hopes and fears - Keane 2,663,000 10 (47) Spirit - Leona Lewis * 2,658,408 11 (9) X&Y - Coldplay 2,542,000 12 (14) Beautiful World - Take That 2,536,000 13 (10) Come away with me - Norah Jones 2,444,000 14 (11) Parachutes - Coldplay 2,434,000 15 (12) The Marshall Mathers LP - Eminem 2,248,000 16 (13) Swing When You're Winning - Robbie Williams 2,244,000 17 (17) Eyes Open - Snow Patrol 2,211,000 18 (15) Sing When You're Winning - Robbie Williams 2,202,000 19 (16) Greatest Hits - Robbie Williams 2,104,000 20 (18) Escapology - Robbie Williams 2,058,000 21 (21) Employment - Kaiser Chiefs 1,993,000 22 (19) By the way - Red Hot Chili Peppers 1,947,000 23 (20) Stripped - Christina Aguilera 1,944,000 24 (22) Songs about Jane - Maroon 5 1,933,000 25 (24) American Idiot - Green Day 1,924,000 26 (23) Justified - Justin Timberlake 1,884,000 27 (28) Greatest hits - Texas 1,866,000 28 (26) Call off the search - Katie Melua 1,862,000 29 (33) Hot Fuss - Killers 1,851,000 30 (30) Missunderstood - Pink 1,835,000 31 (27) Born to do it - Craig David 1,829,000 32 (29) Play - Moby 1,781,000 33 (31) Just enough Education to Peform - Stereophonics 1,754,000 34 (32) Lets go - Avril Lavigne 1,740,000 35 (39) Songbird - Eva Cassidy 1,715,000 36 (53) Never Forget - Take That 1,710,000 37 (34) Fever - Kylie Minogue 1,699,000 38 (36) Demon Days - Gorillaz 1,690,000 39 (35) Coast to coast - Westlfe 1,688,000 40 (NE) Rockferry - Duffy * 1,684,944 41 (37) Fridays Child - Will Young. 1,675,000 42 (46) Greatest Hits I II & III - Queen 1,672,000 43 (45) Final Straw - Snow Patrol 1,662,000 44 (38) Greatest hits - Whitney Houston 1,659,000 45 (55) Unbreakable - The Greatest Hits - Westlife 1,643,000 45 (43) Eye to the Telescope - KT Tunstal 1,630,000 47 (40) Gotta get thru this - Daniel Bedingfield 1,623,000 48 (41) Music - Madonna 1,617,000 49 (42) Intensive Care - Robbie Williams 1,611,000 50 (49) In Time The Best of - REM 1,602,000 51 (44) Number Ones - Michael Jackson 1,592,000 52 (48) Elephunk - Black Eyed Peas 1,562,000 53 (NE) Life in Cartoon Motion - Mika 1,537,000 54 (51) Elvis - 30Number 1 Hits - Elvis Presley 1,504,000 55 (50) Breakaway - Kelly Clarkson 1,494,000 56 (52) Il Divo - Il Divo 1,490,000 57 (56) Greatest Hits 1970-2002 - Elton John 1,471,000 58 (54) Escape - Enrique Iglesias 1,467,000 59 (59) Razorlight – Razorlight 1,462,000 60 (61) In Between Dreams - Jack Johnson 1,451,000
March 1, 200916 yr Thanks for posting, Dave! Glad that Amy Winehouse is combined, makes more sense - she should reach 3 million I would think by the end of the decade.
